measure small amount of ingredients either liquid or powdered
ingredients.
French knife is used to chop, dice,or mince food. Heavy knives have a
saber or flat grind.
Fruit and salad knives are used to prepare vegetables, and fruits
Kitchen knives often referred to as cook's or chef's tools, used for all
types of kitchen tasks such as peeling an onion, slicing carrots, carving
a roast or turkey, etc.
Paring knife is used to core, peel, and section fruits and vegetables.
Blades are short, concave with hollow ground
Note: Realia of other important kitchen tools, utensils and equipment will show to you during the online class.
SELF-CHECKS 1.1.1:
Classify the following kitchen tools, utensils and equipment. Write M for measuring tool,
C for cutting tool, MP for mixing and preparatory tool and CE for cooking equipment. Write your

Now that you recognized almost all kitchen tools, utensils and equipment, you may proceed to the next lesson.
Learning Goals:
a. Cite and study various kinds of chemicals used in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools
and equipment;
b. Compare each chemicals and its function in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools and
equipment; and
c. List down and categorize other chemicals used in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools
and equipment at home and other food establishments.
Cleaning is the process of removing food and other types of soil from a surface, such as
a dish, glass, or cutting board. Cleaning is done with a cleaning agent that removes food, soil, or
other substances. The right leaning agent must be selected because not all cleaning agents can
be used on food-contact surfaces. (A food-contact surface is the surface of equipment or utensil
that food normally comes into contact.) For example, glass cleaners, some metal cleaners, and
most bathroom cleaners cannot be used because they might leave an unsafe residue on the
food contact surface. The label should indicate if the product can be used on a food contact
surface. The right cleaning agent must also be selected to make cleaning easy.

Learning Goals:
7. Wash pots and pans last. Soak them first. Wash the
pans thoroughly and don’t forget to clean the bottoms. If
anything was burnt or overcooked to pots or casserole
dishes, put a little extra soap and water in it and let it stand
while you wash the other dishes. Take note that any oil
residue left will lead to burnt food during the next cooking
session.
8. Lay your dishes out on a rack to air-dry
or wipe them clean with a towel. There should be no visible
matter and no "greasy" feel. Run a hand over the dish to
ensure that they are thoroughly cleaned. If there are still
some grease remaining, consider rewashing the item.
1. Foam – You use this to increase the contact time of the chemical solutions to improve
cleaning with less mechanical force.
2. Clean In Place (CIP) – It is utilized to clean the interior surfaces of tanks and pipelines
of liquid process equipment. A chemical solution is circulated through a circuit of tanks
and or lines then return to a central reservoir allowing the chemical solution to be reused.
Time, temperature and mechanical force are manipulated to achieve maximum cleaning.
3. Clean Out of Place (COP) – is utilized to clean the parts of filters and parts of other
equipment. This requires disassembly for proper cleaning. Parts removed for cleaning
are placed in a circulation tank and cleaned using a heated chemical solution and
agitation.

Learning Goals:
Proper cleaning can reduce the spread of contagious viruses by 80 to 90 percent. ( Gerba, 2016).
1. Scrape and Pre-rinse – soiled equipment surfaces are scraped and rinsed with warm
water to remove loose food soils.
2. Cleaning Cycle – the removal of residual food soils from equipment surfaces is based on
the manipulation of the four basic cleaning factors and the method of cleaning. Typically,
alkaline chemical solutions are used for the cleaning cycle.
3. Rinse – rinse all surfaces with cold to hot water, depending on the temperature of the
cleaning cycle, to thoroughly remove all remaining chemical solution and food soil residues.
Methods of Sanitizing
Sanitizing is done using heat, radiation, or chemicals. Heat and chemicals are
commonly used as a method for sanitizing in a restaurant than radiation. The item to
be sanitized must first be washed properly before it can be properly sanitized. Some
chemical sanitizers, such as chlorine and iodine, react with food and soil and so will
be less effective on a surface that has not been properly cleaned.
1. Thermal Sanitizing. It involves the use of hot water or steam. There are three methods of
using heat to sanitize surfaces – steam, hot water, and hot air. Hot water is the most
common method used in restaurants. If hot water is used in the third compartment of a three-
compartment sink, it must be at least171 F (77 C). If a high-temperature ware washing
machine is used to sanitize cleaned dishes, the final sanitizing rinse must be at least180 F
(82 C). For stationary rack, single temperature machines, it must be at least165 F
(74 C). Cleaned items must be exposed to these temperatures for at least 30 seconds.
2. Chemicals. Approved chemical sanitizers are chlorine, iodine, and quaternary ammonium.
Different factors influence the effectiveness of chemical sanitizers. The three factors that
must be considered are:
a. Concentration. The presence of too little sanitizer will result in an inadequate
reduction of harmful microorganisms. Too much can be toxic.
b.Temperature. Generally, chemical sanitizers work best in water that is between
55 F (13 C) and 120 F (49 C).
c. Contact time. In order for the sanitizer to kill harmful microorganisms, the cleaned
item must be in contact with the sanitizer (either heat or approved chemical) for the
recommended length of time.
A. Interview a chef cook, cook, kitchen personnel or an owner of small canteen in your
neighborhood. Ask him/her on how to the care and maintenance of the tools, utensils and
cooking equipment being used. Write your answer in a long bond paper and file in your portfolio.
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU did your best in doing your activities. Through your acquired
learning, your kitchen may prevent from the spread of microorganism and bacteria that may
cause illnesses and diseases. This is also very important to avoid covid-19 in your kitchen. After
