Final practical complete! šØš½āš³š„
For my dish, I created a teppanyaki-style miso salmon topped with a rich ginger soy sauce, served with shrimp fried rice and crispy rice noodles. Every element on the plate reflected the techniques and flavors weāve been mastering all semester.
took on lamb chops for the very first timeāand let me tell you⦠she absolutely crushed it! 𤤠The proof? I was over there licking the bone and my fingers, while she couldnāt stop going back for my salmon plate.
The best part? Our dishes were judged by , Chopped Champion and now someone I have the privilege of learning from. Having my work evaluated by a chef of his caliber is an opportunity I donāt take for granted. Every practical, every critique, and every plate brings me one step closer to the chef I dream of becoming.
Hereās to growth, great food, and finishing the semester strong. š£š„©š„ ChefClaudeLewis FutureChef HudsonCountyCommunityCollege DreamInProgress
