Foods III students were excited to get back into the kitchen. In this student-led class, they get to give input on what recipes will be made throughout the semester. Students made fast-food French Fries as their first cooking experience this fall. These are made by cutting, boiling, and baking potatoes. The process was time consuming, but the end product was delicious and healthy!
