Food Technology: Summer Garden Salad

Tuesday 18 June 2024

Today, Year 3 made a Summer Garden Salad! The children prepared all the ingredients, assembled the salad and ate almost all of it.

We used the bridge and claw cutting skills to cut up all the vegetables. The bridge was best for the new potatoes and the plum tomatoes. The claw was more suitable for the gem lettuce leaves and cucumber.

The carrot was grated to keep it fine and we boiled the new potatoes until they were soft!

We stayed safe by using these skills carefully and taking our time.

After we assembled all of the vegetables, we whisked together the yoghurt, oil and vinegar for the dressing.

Everyone tried it and the majority of us loved it! The dressing made it flavoursome and we liked the colours of all the ingredients.

Help by making it again at home! The recipe has been sent home with the children. Can you add something new? Could you try a different dressing?
