...Terry Harris ACO332561 EN 130 Composition II Lesson 4 Writing a developed process analysis How to prepare my favorite dish I have always been someone who enjoys good food, but very particular about what I eat. So for that reason only I have become somewhat of a chef. I love to entertain and have family and friends over to test new recipes. One recipe I debut have become a family favorite and have to bring it to every family gathering. I received this recipe from one of my coworkers when I was looking for something different to do with cabbage, which I love. She told me that her family loves this recipe and its super simple to prepare. It’s called Runza, similar to a calzone, without the red sauce. To get started you will want to make sure you have all your ingredients close to you. This is what you will need. When I make this recipe I rarely measure anything out. It’s all to taste. I’ll start with the most important ingredients first, One head of cabbage, one pound of ground turkey or ground beef ( which ever you prefer), one green and red bell pepper, mozzarella cheese, one large onion, garlic cloves. You will use one teaspoon of each of these spices: salt, pepper, red pepper, red curry, Italian seasoning and chili powder to give it a little kick. I usually would make my own bread recipe but for time saving measures I just use an already made pie crust. I would get two just in case you will need to double wrap. Lastly you will need, as Rachel Ray would say, one...

...Executive Summary In today’s economy so many of us find ourselves in difficult circumstances and in situations we never thought we would be in. So many people are wondering where their next meal will come from, the problem is these individuals are not even unemployed. Employed people in this economy are facing many economical hardships and have to change their way of living. WIC, The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children is a Federal assistance program of the Food and Nutrition Service of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for healthcare and nutrition of low-income pregnant women, breastfeeding women, and infants and children under the age of five has seen increase in the past five years growing from 8,088,005 to 9,176,736 participants [ (FNS USDA, 2011) ]. Many families that participate in the WIC program are military families in the U.S. military, I find it sad that the families who sacrifice for our freedom are stretched so thin that they need programs such as WIC. Many families use all of their coupons given to them to purchase food however many have found that the foods are sometimes what they don’t need, many wish they had more variety of fruits and vegetables instead of cereal, juice and peanut butter. Many families can’t use all the items they receive because their families don’t like what they are able to get or they don’t know what to use it for. A cookbook that allows moms to use the ingredients that they normally...

...you can't have those! They are for the funeral!" Body of Speech * Walking into Grandma's house just as she is taking fresh baked oatmeal and raisin cookies out of the oven is a memory that is cemented forever. What a wonderful gift! * Oatcakes originated in Scotland and were popular all over the British Isles. The cakes popped into the scene right around the time the Scottish began harvesting oatmeal which was around 1000 BC. Originally the cakes were a staple food more like a pancake than a cookie. The Oatmeal Raisin cake did not officially morph into an actual cookie until about the 19th century when Oatmeal had become a more popular cooking ingredient world-wide. * The very first known record of the Oatmeal Raisin Cookie recipe was found in the Boston Cooking-School Cook Book and was written by Fannie Merritt Farmer in 1896. The Oatmeal Raisin cookie quickly grew in popularity due to it being called a health food. Demonstration: 1 cup of brown sugar ½ cup of sugar ¾ cup of vegetable oil ¼ cup of water 1 egg 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract 3 cups of old fashioned oatmeal 1 cup of all-purpose flour ½ teaspoon of baking soda Prepare oven to 350. Lightly grease cookie sheet. Beat sugars, shortening water, egg, and vanilla until creamy. Combine oats, flour, baking soda and 1 teaspoon of salt if desired, Add to shortening mixture and mix well, at this time you can add raisins or anything else you desire to...

...Criterion A : Initial investigation Summary of Problem: My client, Anita Lauenbach, a stay at home mom, is very eager to learn some recipes from the Arabic cuisine. At the moment, she only prepares Danish and Italian food. Her family wants to have a taste of Arabia at home as they want to experience the Arabic culture they live in. Ms. Anita is asking for a cookbook filled with Arabic recipes that is created upon her specifications. She wants it to be easy to follow with clear steps as she finds some other Arabic cookbooks really complicated as she isn’t familiar with some of the ingredients. Explanation of inadequacies of current situation: In the interview I had with Ms. Anita, she stated that her family and her are really interested in Arabic food and find it a great way to learn more about the Arabic culture they live in. Currently, she doesn’t have any Arabic cookbooks as the only ones available around her are very complicated and she finds the steps unclear and difficult to follow. She also stated that she is unfamiliar with some of the ingredients so she thinks that an Arabic cuisine cookbook created by an Arab who is familiar with the ingredients is a very good idea. Ms. Anita thinks that using an IT system to create the cookbook is a fantastic idea as videos and other features that make the cookbook easier to follow can be added to the digital cookbook.

...Quiz Positioning is the focus of chapter two in Art of the Start, by Guy Kawasaki. All new companies need to great positioning to be successful and develop their brand. The startup that I believe created successful positioning is called, Plated. Plated is a New York City based startup formed in 2012 by Josh Hix and Nick Taranto. Plated is a website where users can see different recipes from chefs around the world. If there is a recipe that you like, you can can request the dish, then Plated sends you exactly every ingredient you need. This tackles the common issue of buying too much or not enough of an ingredient when preparing a meal. This startup also allows users to try a variety of dishes that they may have not heard of. Plated was also featured on this past season of ABC’s Shark Tank in efforts to raise more money to branch out into the mid-west and west coast. My girlfriend Tammy and I frequently use Plated to make meals, and as a customer I have always been satisfied. The best thing about Plated is that they send you all the ingredients, measured out perfectly, all you do is follow the recipe instructions. Also, if they send you meat or fish, they make sure to place it in an ice pack bag to keep it fresh. When I first heard about Plated I realized that they have made their service for people who don’t have time to make meals and for people who don’t have cooking experience in general. This is a “specific” positioning technique as mentioned by Kawasaki on page 31. The...

...= Farang Food by Gill Bater is a recommended book to read to foreigners and Thai alike once they face the challenge of cooking international meals. Farang Food is, as the name suggests, a book that concerns with foods that are outside Thailand's border, mostly on the western side of the world. This recipe book is in its second edition and is printed on good quality glossy stock. This is itself is an important consideration for a recipe book which will spend much of its time in the greasy environment of a kitchen. The copy I have myself have gone through stages of wear and tear, even sribbles from my earlier days of artistic excursions. The book as expressed before is multi-lingual, meaning that a person from more than one ethnic or national background may be able to read it. That is also the main purpose of the book: giving opportunity for those wanting to cook, to also learn a second language. The descriptive detail and instructions within the book are quite simple, a little too simple at times, but it still gets the message across. It is amazing to see that a person is able to squeeze in a 20 step process into a 2 page space. Foreigners living in Thailand have also experienced studying this cookbook. Stanley Kemp, a foreigner living in Thailand who still has a taste for his Western delicacies, stated "...when we returned to 388 John from Jomtien called in for the afternoon so we had a chat about cars, computers and cameras, then Diana made a small chili-con-carne for...

First I thought they were still asleep, but when I went to the kitchen I saw that my breakfast was on the table, and also a brief note from my mother. My mother informed me that I have to stay at home alone, as she needed to help her sister to organise a wedding party. My mother left $300 for me. This took me with surprise at is was the first time that I stayed at home alone. Whilst eating my breakfast, I convinced myself that everything will be alright and I also thought about all the household chores I need to do in the absence of my mother. After breakfast, I did the washing up and went to the market in order to buy food. As I didn't know by then what I wanted to cook for dinner, I just had a stroll around in order to gather some ideas. At the end I bought some noodles so that I could bake Vietnamese noodles for dinner. As I didn't know how to cook those noodles, I researched a recipe via google for 30 minutes, and at the end I found a video which demonstrated step-by-step how to cook the noodles . This was the first time I cooked a dinner for myself and I wanted it to look pretty. Just as it looked in the video, and just as my mother tought me. She always says: "When we cooking or making food, we have to think all about love and beautiful things, so our food can be more delicious."

...automating general web-based activities. This tool has several recipes, and each one of them has a trigger (“this”) and consequent action (“that”) for joining different applications, for instance, Google+ and Instagram (Coles, 2015). A perfect collection of recipes saves time, and it helps in organizing a company’s online activities. For example, it makes it possible to thank automatically twitter followers for retweets by using the buffers social scheduling app. IFTTT is an important social media tool in a business environment for organization and efficiency both at personal and at group levels. It works in such a way that if an activity takes place in one app, the activity sets off an action in a different app (Coles,2015).For instance sharing a photo in Instagram will automatically cause the same photo to be posted in Facebook, Twitter and many other photos sharing services. There are many ways that IFTTT can be applied in a professional setting. They include scheduling social media campaigns. The tool is used to ensure that whatever is posted on social media remains in circulation for longer periods so that most people can see (Coles, 2015). It is used to re-post the content of a business on a regular basis while focusing on blogs that were written that were probably not seen when they were posted for the first time. When new content is posted on social media, its link is added to an IFTTT formula called recipe that will repost the same blog on Twitter every week, or month...

...uses food to express feeling and emotion access the food cooking, while americans are more like the free style. I wil illustrate these differences from three aspects: cooking standard, diet and the way of having dinner. Firstly, the cooking standard is different. Americans emphasize science and nutrition. This is why their whole procedure of cooking is in strict accordance, and the use of recipes is an good example. In American recipes, measurement is calculated by grams and the recipe seems to be scientific and accurate. They are always totally accroding to recipes to buy food material and make dishes, and there always an electronic scale in kitchen to accurate measurement according to the recipe. However, Chinese is always cooking at will. They cooking with what they have, and almost anything can be cooked together, such as pumpkin and sweetbell redpepper, pig’s intestines and celery. In Chinese recipes, the amount of material added as a vague concept, such as: “a spoon”, “two bowls”, and “a little”, there is no specific criteria. This lead to an interesting effect that with one same recipe, ten people will make ten kinds of flavors.Some of them are tastely; some are...

...Summary of Jet city Salmon Name: Date: Summary of Jet city Salmon Salmon dish is a common meal not only in the Seattle but also in the United states. However, different hotels prepare the dish differently (Costa, 2014). As a result, some joints make the fish tastier while other keeps it in the average taste. Monaco Seattle is one of the hotels that prepare the best salmon dish in the state. Also, most of the clients have manifested preference in the dish. When new clients visit the Hotel Monaco Seattle, salmon is always their dish in mind. Conversely, the difference in the taste is owed to the executive Chef of the hotel. Throughout the years, McClures admitted to have been using the wrong recipe (the use of pieces to make fillets). The admission is accompanied by a new procedure that includes firing the fish whole provided the desired taste. Additionally, the use of homemade glaze also enhanced the final dish. Nevertheless, the cooking method is not the only factor that contributes to the high client turn-out. The location of the hotel also influences the flow of customers (Costa, 2014). Moreover, the hotel’s location makes it ideal for easier access to most of the people within the county. Furthermore, it also provides an access to a wide diversity of fish that attends to the desired of the clients. To ensure, consistency, the hotel ensures that it only uses specific fish mongers who are knowledgeable on salmon species. However, the cost of salmon varies with season and availability...
