Students in Mrs. Morse's Culinary Arts class recently spent time in the Foods Lab writing their own recipes for an appetizer. After learning about how to identify the five parts of a recipe and annotating a recipe, they were challenged to write their own. Students had to use what ingredients were available and through trial and error, created an appetizer recipe that will be a part of a class cookbook.
