Lesson Synopsis: Menu Planning
This lesson introduces students to the key factors involved in menu planning, with a focus on cost management, seasonal ingredient use, and adapting menus for different occasions and customer expectations.
Students will learn how ingredient costs, labor, and overheads influence the pricing of menu items, and why using seasonal ingredients can help keep costs low.
The lesson also explores how menus differ across various settings—such as fine dining, fast food, and catering services like hospitals or schools—based on budget and customer expectations.
Through discussions and scenario-based activities, students will explore how menus are planned for balance, cost efficiency, quality and consider how different occasions, such as weddings or large events, require specific planning to ensure smooth service. By the end, students will be able to outline key menu planning strategies for a variety of settings and occasions.
This pack of recipes is used to support the teaching of nutrition and life stages as well as providing ideas for Unit 2 linking to skills and the nutritional needs of customer.
These recipes have been used with our Yr 9/10 students as part of a recipe bank that they can they refer to in preparation for their Unit 2 practical exam.
They are based on one hour lessons with pupils working in pairs to help them to understand the demands of practical lessons that use a wide range of preparation and cooking skills. There is a focus on the presentation of each dish at the end of the lesson.
At the end of each half term, pupils are encouraged to choose a dish to cook independently to meet the needs of the consumers in a given brief. At the end of each full term, students in Yr 10 choose two dishes and spend lesson 1 completing mise en place and lesson 2 cooking and presenting all of their dishes.
This is a great way of preparing students for the demands of the Unit 2 practical exam whilst also providing them with a wide range of suitable recipes. It is also a good way to help students understand the range of skills that they are required to demonstrate in order to achieve the higher marks.
This lesson introduces students to the concept of using local produce, focusing on how it supports the environment and the local economy. Students will explore the benefits, such as reduced food miles, sustainability, and support for local farmers, while also considering the challenges of relying solely on local food sources, such as limited variety and seasonal availability.
The lesson includes:
PowerPoint Presentations: Clear visual explanations and key points on food provenance and sustainability.
Video Resources: Engaging visual content to illustrate examples of local food production and its impact.
Mini Reviews: Short, focused assessments to check for student understanding after key sections of the lesson.
Interactive Tasks: Group activities that encourage collaboration and hands-on learning, such as designing a soup using local produce.
Challenge Sheets: Stretch-it questions to encourage deeper thinking, including support materials to guide students through more complex concepts.
Final Review and Reflection: A class discussion to consolidate learning and reflect on how students can apply their knowledge in their daily food choices.
This resource is ideal for a Key Stage 4 class in Hospitality and Catering, Food Technology, or Geography, and includes everything needed to engage students in the importance of local, sustainable food choices.
