Cooking uses all five senses - sight (to see what's happening), touch (to wash and prepare foods), hearing (to listen for sounds), smell (as food cooks), and taste (tasting what they are making!). In this lab, students will investigate different vegetables using their senses and discover their smell, taste, texture and appearance. Students will learn kitchen and knife safety and learn how to prepare Ranch Dressing from scratch and prepare a vegetable platter!
