What’s In?
Preparing vegetables can be threatening for some people because they
come in all kinds of shapes and sizes and have different flavors and textures.
However, after cooking them once or twice, and getting the feel of how to treat
them, one will be able to figure out the cooking methods or flavorings that suit
them best.
Vegetables are cooked to improve their color, texture, and flavor. Because
there are vast varieties, the cooking methods will also vary depending on the
preferred result. In professional food service production, vegetables are often
blanched, or par cooked in boiling salted water as a mise en place step, and
finished by other cooking methods such as sautéing, frying, or roasting. The
nutrient content, the taste and the texture of vegetable plants is affected the way
they are handled and cooked. With this reason, it is of utmost importance for
vegetables to be always washed before cooking or serving them raw.

PRINCIPLES OF PREPARING VEGETABLES
Preparing vegetables
• Wash your hands before preparing foods. Hands should be washed thoroughly
with hot, soapy water for 20 seconds before and after handling fresh produce,
raw meat, poultry, or seafood, as well as after using the bathroom, changing
diapers, or handling pets.
• Removing outer leaves or peeling may decrease the amount of pesticide
residues or harmful microbes on fruits and vegetables.
• Wash all vegetables with cool tap water to remove dirt and residues.
• Scrub firm produce with a clean produce brush.
• Don't wash vegetables with household soaps and detergents.
• Don't cross-contaminate. Use clean cutting boards and utensils when handling
fresh produce. Use one clean cutting board for fresh produce and a separate
one for raw meat, poultry, and seafood.
• Wash surfaces often. Cutting boards, dishes, utensils, and countertops should
be washed with hot, soapy water after coming in contact with fresh produce or
raw meat, poultry, or seafood.
• Cutting boards and countertops can be sanitized with a solution of one
teaspoon of chlorine bleach in one quart of water. Be aware of the hazards
associated with storing and using bleach, and do not apply the solution directly
to fruits and vegetables.
• Refrigerate fresh produce within two hours of peeling or cutting. Discard cut
produce left at room temperature for more than two hours.
1.Washing
o Wash all vegetables thoroughly
o Scrub well unpeeled vegetables, like potatoes for baking
o Wash green leafy vegetables in several changes of cold water
o After washing, drain well and refrigerate lightly covered to prevent drying.
2. Soaking
o Do not soak vegetables for long periods to prevent flavor and nutrient loss.
o Cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower may be soaked for 30 minutes in cold salted
water to eliminate insects.
o Limp vegetables can be soaked briefly in cold water to restore crispness.
Serving
• Fresh produce should be placed unrefrigerated on the table not longer than
two hours.
• Use a cooler with ice or ice gel packs to transport or store cut fresh
vegetables at picnics or other summer events. Keep raw meats in a
separate cooler.
2. Microwave
For large ears of corn on the cob moderately in the microwave if you plan to
boil them on the stove top and consume immediately after cooking. This process
will heat the cobs through before the kernels turn mushy. Smaller ears may be
good to boil directly from frozen. Microwave frozen ears of corn in ¼ cup of
water. Start with 4 to 6 minutes for two ears, 8 to 10 minutes for four ears, and
11 to 14 minutes for six ears.
Defrost exact leafy and bulky frozen vegetables, like broccoli spears, turnip
greens and spinach. Do this by holding them in their packaging under
cold running water. Avoid using warm or hot water. Press the packaging lightly
with your fingers and thumbs to feel the change in texture of the frozen
vegetables to thawed. Open the packaging and briefly drain in a colander before
using in a recipe.
Tips
It is important to cook frozen vegetables immediately after thawing to avoid
mushiness.
If you also have leftover thawed and cooked vegetables in your refrigerator, you
can freeze them within three to four days, but they may not taste up to par. If
you prefer, you can sauté, boil or steam most frozen vegetables without thawing
them first. Corn on the cob is best thawed in the refrigerator or in cold water
before cooking. However, leafy greens, such as spinach, do best when soaked in
cold water, or they may release too much water into your recipe.
Warning
Please do not thaw foods, including vegetables, on the counter or outside
because it will invite dangerous bacteria, which can lead to food poisoning. If you
thaw vegetables in the microwave, they reach a high temperature that calls
bacteria, so you must cook them immediately to preserve quality and prevent
food-borne illness. If you have left your vegetables outside of the refrigerator for
more than two hours, discard them, as they may have developed dangerous
bacteria.
Freezing is considered as one of the oldest, better, and most widely used
methods of food preservation. This method allows the preservation of taste,
texture, and nutritional value in foods. Freezing is a quick and convenient way to
preserve fruits and vegetables at home. Home frozen fruits and vegetables of
high quality and maximum nutritional value can be produced done correctly.
Freezing has beneficial effects of low temperatures at which microorganisms
cannot grow, chemical reactions are reduced, and cellular metabolic reactions
are delayed.
Frozen fruits and vegetables are not only a good source of nutrients but also
provide a steady supply of products and raw materials throughout the year.
• Wash hands with hot soapy water, for at least 20 seconds, before and after
handling fresh vegetables, or raw meat, poultry, or seafood, as well as after
using the bathroom, changing diapers, or handling pets.
• Wash all fresh vegetables under running, drinking water before peeling,
cutting, or eating. The wash water temperature should be 10 degrees
warmer than the temperature of any vegetable being washed to prevent
thermal shock and absorption of water and bacteria to the inside cells.
• Scrubbing with a clean brush is only recommended for vegetables with a
tough rind or peel (such as carrots, potatoes, cucumbers, and squash)
that will not be bruised or scratched by the brush bristles.
• Discard outer leaves of leafy vegetables like lettuce and cabbage before
washing.
• Do not wash fruits and vegetables with bleach or soaps - it can absorb into
the product and change the taste.
• Use of wax coatings on some vegetables keeps the moisture and keep good
quality. Wax coatings are safe to eat. Remove the wax by scrubbing with a
vegetable brush under running water.
Clean fresh vegetables before preserving even if it will be peeled.

What’s In?
Knowing the different market forms of vegetables can help in deciding
which vegetables to buy and prepare. Vegetables that are available in the market
are fresh, frozen, dried, or canned.
When it comes to good nutrition, all four forms of fruits and vegetables
matter.
Buying fruits or vegetables may seem to be a very simple activity. Anybody
who has money can buy fruits and vegetables. If you tell a kid within 7 to 8
years of age to get vegetables, he goes to the market and buys them. But buying
vegetables or fruits in a right way does require some efforts. The work of buying
sounds to be very simple but every person should apply his thoughts before
buying them.
When shopping for vegetables, the key factors are firmness and
color. Choose those that are as firm or crisp as possible and consistent in
coloring. Unlike fruit, smell does not play a big factor in a vegetable’s freshness,
although anything that smells overly sweet or sour has likely passed its prime.
Before you begin picking through your favorite golden delicious apples or
sorting through leafy bundles of lettuce, there are a few key things to keep in
mind. It is important to know that most commercial farms pick fruit and
vegetables well before ripeness so that they are delivered to the grocery store at
the peak of freshness. However, your senses play the biggest role in identifying
the best fruits and vegetables, and you will have to use your hands, eyes, and
nose.

What Is It?
MARKET FORMS OF VEGETABLES
1. Fresh. Fresh vegetables are those that have undergone little or no
processing from the time they were harvested to the time they were
marketed or sold. Which also means that they remain in the same state
from the time they were harvested. Fresh vegetables are often referred to
as produce and are normally sold in the market, grocery stores,
supermarkets, roadside stalls, farmer’s market, and vegetable farms.
2. Frozen. The forms of vegetables that are commercially packed in plastic
bags or cardboard boxes. Naturally, these are frozen within hours of
harvest, but undergo several steps to warrant that their quality is
preserved before the actual freezing process.
a. They are washed thoroughly to remove any dirt, debris and the
chemicals that have been used.
b. They are often blanched or cooked quickly in a boiling water, and
then shocked in ice water to stop the cooking process.
c. The vegetables are sorted and inspected, so as to get rid of any
vegetables that are not fit for consumption.
d. They are packaged and shipped off to wholesalers and distributors,
to supermarkets and grocery stores.
3. Dried. These are vegetables that are dried or dehydrated to preserve and
prolong their shelf life. The process is done by removing water from
vegetables and obstruct the growth of bacteria, yeasts and molds that can
stimulate spoilage and rotting of vegetables. Methods of drying vegetables
are: freeze drying, drum drying and sun drying.
4. Canned. This is the form of vegetables where vegetables are preserved.
Like freezing and drying, it helps make vegetables last longer. It makes
cooking with vegetables easier and more convenient.
Points to be considered before buying vegetables and fruits
1. The price of the vegetables
Price is an important factor to be considered before buying vegetables. You
must know the actual market price of a particular vegetable you want to buy. If
the sellers say that the price of an egg plant is 10 pesos for ¼ kg, just give a
thought if the price is fairer. Then bargain with the seller regarding the price of
the vegetable. Convince him that the price is much cheaper elsewhere so tell him
that you cannot pay more. If he is not willing to pay the price, then tell him that
you can look elsewhere. Then most of the seller reduces the price of the
vegetable.
2. Geographical location
The vegetable stall should be nearer to your home. The price of the
vegetable is never so high and hence do not go to a distant place where you need
to travel by bus or rikshaw to get the vegetable. You simply spend double
amount to buy such a cheap vegetable. Remember that you should not spend
other expenses just to buy a vegetable. If you think that the vegetable seller
nearer to your home does not sell fresh vegetables, then you can walk a little
distance and buy the vegetables. Always try to minimize costs.
3. The vegetable you need
Before buying a vegetable, you must properly note down the type of
vegetables you want to buy. Some people hastily buy the vegetables that are
already kept in the house. Check out into your baskets, refrigerators, or bags
properly the type of vegetables that are already bought. You must buy the
vegetables that are not kept in the house.
4. Quantity of buying
You must buy the vegetables depending upon the number of members in
the house and the consumption of vegetables. If three members are residing in
the house then buy the quantity that suits your needs. You must also have the
idea of total consumption in the house. Normally if three members reside in the
house the quantity that is required is ¼ kg. The vegetables should be consumed
during the day. Do not buy many vegetables in the house and stuff the fridge.
Even refrigerators cannot preserve vegetables for more than 3 days.
5. Freshness of the vegetables
The vegetables that are to be bought should be fresh. So, do you buy the
vegetable that seem to be very stale. The vegetables may not be the ones that are
freshly bought from the market, but they should not lose their texture. If you are
buying ladies finger(okra), then the vegetable should appear smooth when you
touch it. If the vegetable gets stale, then it becomes rougher. In this way you
must test many other vegetables before buying.
6. Good quality
The vegetable should not be rotten from within and should appear good. If
the vegetable is rotten then usually a black pore appears somewhere. You must
view the vegetables very carefully before buying.
Tips for buying fresh vegetables
When shopping for vegetables, key factors are firmness and color. Choose those
that are as firm or crisp as possible and consistent in coloring. Unlike fruit,
smell does not play a big factor in a vegetable’s freshness, although anything
that smells overly sweet or sour is likely passed its prime. As you browse your
vegetable aisle, consider the following:
• Bell Peppers—Bell peppers should be firm and void of any soft spots. No
matter which color pepper you are purchasing, look for consistency along
the entire surface and avoid any with split or broken stems.
• Cauliflower and Broccoli—Color is a key indicator of the freshness of these
vegetables. Broccoli should be a pale green and cauliflower should be an off-
white, void of any yellowing or browning. The heads should be heavy and
compact.
• Corn—The husk of corn should be pale green and moist looking, free of any
browning or drying. Whether purchased with or without the husk, the
kernels should be plump and firm to the touch.
• Root/Bulb Vegetables—Carrots, beets, potatoes, and onions should be hard
to the touch and free of any cracking or soft spots. If roots are still attached,
they should be sturdy and crisp, void of any wilting.
• Leafy Greens—Use your fingers to assess as many layers of the greens as
possible. Both the leaves and stalk of kale, lettuce, and cabbage should be
crisp, void of wilting or browning. Check for any tears in the leaves. While a
few are expected to occur during delivery, avoid any with tears that are
beginning to brown.
Cooking vegetables
1.Boiling
Boiling is fast and easy to control. The secret is to use as little water as
possible and avoid overcooking, so all the vitamins and flavor are retained. For
vegetables such as broccoli, cut into equal-sized pieces. Add to a pan of boiling
water, quickly bring back to the boil, cover, then simmer until the vegetables are
just tender. To evenly cook potatoes and other starchy roots, such as parsnips
and carrots, place in cold water and boil them gently to allow the heat to diffuse
through the vegetables.
2. Steaming
Steaming vegetables is the best way of retaining flavor, color, and vital
nutrients. Just be careful not to overcook them as this will make them limp and
tasteless. There are two ways to steam vegetables: either place them loosely in a
steamer and cover, or to steam them in their own juices, wrap in baking
parchment or foil then cook in the oven at 180°C, gas mark for 20 minutes until
tender. This last technique is ideal for delicate vegetables, such as asparagus
and baby vegetables.
3. Blanching
Blanching is a technique used to soften vegetables, either to remove their
raw edge before adding to salads or to loosen skins on foods such as tomatoes or
shallots. Vegetables should also be blanched before they are frozen, as this
destroys the enzymes that cause deterioration. Just add vegetables to a pan of
boiling water, return to the boil and cook for one minute. Then plunge the
vegetables into iced water to stop the cooking process. Drain and pat dry with
kitchen paper before using or freezing.
4. Roasting
Roasting is not just for potatoes - root vegetables, squashes and tomatoes
all taste wonderful cooked this way. Roasting works by intensifying flavors and
causing natural sugars to caramelize, creating a crisp outer coating and a tender
center. For the best results, preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7 and if you
are using root vegetables, preheat the cooking oil for a crisp finish. Cut large
vegetables into even-sized chunks and toss in olive oil and fresh herbs, if you
wish.
5. Stir-frying
Stir-frying uses very little oil and cooks’ vegetables quickly, so they keep
their texture and taste. Cut the vegetables into small, even-sized pieces, add a
little oil to a preheated wok or frying pan and heat until just smoking. Start with
the vegetables that need the longest cooking and keep stirring as they cook. Do
not overfill the pan, as they will steam rather than fry - cook in batches instead.
If you are adding a sauce, do so at the very end, then toss to coat and serve
immediately.
6. Griddling
Griddling and barbecuing are direct heat cooking methods, which produce
vegetables with a crisp coating and a tender center. For the best results, make
sure your barbecue or griddle pan is hot before you start. Slice the vegetables so
they sit flat in the pan, then brush with a little oil. Avoid pricking them while
they are cooking, as this will release their juices and dry them out. To get the
chargrilled stripe effect, do not move them as they cook - just turn them once.

What I Need to Know?
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to
1. Name locally available vegetables and its menu.
2. List the five (5) techniques in food presentation.
3. Recall some facts in food presentation.
4. Present vegetable recipes with appropriate sauces and accompaniments.
5. Appreciate the value of cooking and presenting vegetables.
What I Know?
Activity 1: LOCAL VEGGIES
Directions: Write the vegetables commonly found in your area. Give one local
menu out of each given vegetable. Seek the help of other family member. You
may also refer to the vegetables available at home and to the menu cooked at
home. The first one is an example for you.
What’s In?
Did you know that before the food ever touches your tongue you’ve already
tasted it? That may sound impossible, but we visually taste our food long before
we ever taste it in our mouths. As you see a waiter carrying your plate to your
table to begin deciding how the meal will taste based on how the food looks. In
simpler terms, this visual tasting experience comes down to good or bad food
presentation. If the food looks appetizing, you’re more likely to want to try it and
enjoy it when you do.
Food presentation is an art, and it is the best way for a chef to bring their
personality into a dish. How you choose to present food to your guests is an art
form, and you get to choose what that art looks like. You can bring the culture of
the food to the surface of the dish with traditional presentation or make something
totally unique with a more abstract technique. Presenting food is the key to pulling
all five senses into the experience of eating.
What’s New?
Activity 2: FILL ME IN
Directions: To start the lesson on the presentation of prepared vegetable dishes,
please do the activity below by giving the five techniques in food presentation.
Write on the box the correct word or group of words.
FOOD
PRESENTATION
TECHNIQUE
What Is It?
A plate should engage the senses and draw the diner into it, much as a painting
will draw in the observer. The dish should be carefully planned to balance tastes,
textures, colors, and cooking methods. With a little extra time, spent plating, you can
utilize the texture, color, and taste of the food to create a masterpiece on the plate. A
story for your guests to read first with their eyes, and then with their mouths.
Things to remember before plating food
Before you begin preparing your dish, you should consider the kind of cuisine
you're serving. Are you making a hearty steak dinner, or are you preparing a delicate
side dish or appetizer? You can't start building your plate until all of your flavors are
finalized, and so it's wise to have your ingredients prepared before you begin the actual
plating process.
In addition, you'll want to consider portion sizes before you begin plating. To do
so, focus on balancing your protein, carbohydrate, and vegetable to create a
nutritionally balanced meal. Ultimately, ingredients carefully placed will create art, but
presentation should never outshine taste.

What I Need to Know?
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to
1. Name the kitchen tools, and equipment and ingredients based on required
standard
2. Identify types, varieties, market forms, nutritive value, and composition of fish and
seafood
3. Handle seafood hygienically
4. Appreciate the value of ensuring the maximum quality and maintain nutritional
value of fish and shellfish
What I Know?
Directions: List down specific name of FISH and SHELLFISH that are available in our
community.
What’s In?
Directions: In the previous lesson we already learned how to prepare, cook, and store
vegetable. Now, enumerate at least 10 tools and equipment’s you have been
using at home. Write your answer on the space provided below.
What’s New?
A tool can be any item that is used to achieve a goal. Equipment usually denotes
a set of tools that are used to achieve a specific objective. Equipment is only used by
human being. Some kitchen tools used in preparing fish and seafood blade tweezers, fins
shears, fish scales, lobster picks, shellfish knives, bone tweezers and cutting board. While in
cooking we used griller, frying pan, fish steamer, oven, fish spatula and tong.
As with any type of food it is important to handle seafood safely to reduce the risk
of foodborne illness, often called “food poisoning.” Follow safe handling tips for buying,
preparing, and storing fish and shellfish. You and your family can safely enjoy the fine
taste and good nutrition of seafood. How long your fresh seafood will last depend on the
condition of the product when you purchased it and on how well you take care of it.
When storing fresh seafood, keep it in the coldest part of the refrigerator. Use a
thermometer to make sure your home refrigerators is operating at 40°F or lower. Fish will
lose quality and deteriorate rapidly with higher storage temperature – so use ice when
you can. Always purchase seafood last during your shopping trip, and bring a cooler to
transport it home. If you have caught your own fish, do not let them sit on the deck until
you come back to the dock. Bury them on ice immediately or use an ice slush with
approximately 2 parts ice to 1 part water to keep your catch cold.
What Is It?
Tools and Equipment Needed
Fish bone tweezers- are used for removing small bones from raw fillet of fish. The ends
perfectly touch, allowing you to grip the most bone and ll them out.
Kitchen shear- also known as kitchen scissors, are intended for cutting, trimming food such
as meat and fish.
Shellfish knives-this is a classic looking pocketknife ideal for gently opening oyster and
shellfish.
A cutting board (or chopping board) is a durable board on which to place material for
cutting. The kitchen cutting board is commonly used in preparing food.
A kitchen knife is any knife that is intended to be used in food preparation. While much of
this work can be accomplish with a few a few general purposes.
Rubberized gloves-Its primary purpose is the protection of the hand in performing tasks
especially during the preparation of fish.
Brushes made for multiple kitchen tasks. They can be used for sanitary cleaning or they can
be used to clean food, such as fruits, mushrooms, or shellfish. Kitchen brushes are available
in any shapes.
A spatula is a hand-held tool that is used for lifting, flipping, or Spreading.
A frying pan, frypan, or skillet is a flat-bottomed pan used for frying, searing, and
browning foods. It is typically 20 to 30 cm (8 to 12 in) in diameter with relatively low sides
A grill is a device used for cooking food. With a grill, food is usually roasted. Some grills use
charcoal or wood, and other grills us propane gas to cook the food. Using wood or
charcoal makes smoke and changes the flavor of the food.
Tongs-used for picking up pieces of coal and placing them on a fire without burning
fingers or getting them dirty
Plating Plate - Choose your plate wisely by making sure it's big enough to allow your food
to stand out.
Oven- is a thermally insulated chamber used for the heating, baking, or drying of a
substance, and most commonly used for cooking.
Refrigerator -sometimes called fridge is a machine for keeping items cold or good
(unspoiled) for a longer period of time.
Plastic Packaging for frozen-used for packing frozen products like fish and meat.
A sheet pan, baking tray or baking sheet is a flat, rectangular metal pan or ceramic used
in an oven.
Fish scaler - is a kitchen tools used for taking out the scales of the fish.
Classifications of Seafood
Characteristics of Shellfish
A. Mollusks
Oysters have rough, irregular shells.
Flesh of oyster is extremely soft and delicate and contains high percentage of
water.
Hard-shell clams – can be eaten raw
Soft-shell clams are called steamers. The usual way to cook is to steam.
The shells of mussels are not as heavy as clamshells, yellow to orange in color and
firm but tender when cooked.
Scallops are creamy white in color and have a sweet flavor.
Squid is somewhat chewy and are cut up or fried quickly.
B. Crustaceans
The lobster shell is dark green or bluish green but turns red when cooked
Live lobster must be alive when cooked.
B. Shellfish
1. Oysters, clams, mussels in the shell must be alive. Tightly closed shells when jostled.
2. Live or shucked oysters must have a very mild, sweet smell.
3. Discard any mussels that are very light in weight or seem to be hollow.
4. Strong fishy odor or a brownish color is a sign of age or spoilage.
5. Live lobster must be alive when cooked. The meat will be firm and the tail springs
back when straightened.
6. Frozen shrimp should be solidly frozen when received.
7. Glazed shrimp should be shiny with no freezer burn.
8. All shrimps should smell fresh and sweet. A strong fishy or iodine smell indicates
age or spoilage.
9. Live crabs should be kept alive until cooked.
10. Frozen crabmeat should be treated like any other frozen fish.
Fresh Fish
1. Store on crushed ice. Use drip pans to allow for drainage of melted ice. Change
ice daily. Cover container store in separate box away from other foods. Whole fish
should be drawn because entrails deteriorate rapidly. Cut fish should be wrapped
or left in original moisture proof wrap.
2. In refrigerated box at 30° to 34°F (-1° to 1°C.
3. Fresh fish may be stored for 1 to 2 days. If kept longer, wrap, and freeze
immediately.

WORKSHEETS
Week 7-8
What I Need to Know?
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to
5. Name Filipino fish dishes
6. Prepare and present fish or shellfish dishes
7. Demonstrate various methods of cooking fish and shellfish
8. Appreciate the value of cooking and presenting fishes or seafoods.
What I Know?
Activity 1: PINOY FISH DISHES
Directions: Name common fish dishes in our country especially here in Batangas. You may
ask a family member or relatives about the term for each dish. Write your answer on the
space provided below.
What’s In?
In previous lesson we discussed already the composition of fish which is very
important why we need to follow the correct procedures in cooking. To have a good result
in cooking, we must follow the correct procedure and cooking techniques in cooking fish
and shellfish.
After cooking food what is your goal? Of course, putting your food in a plate. The
question is, how you place your food? When you are plating food, your goal should be to
make the food look attractive and appetizing. This is because people eat with their eyes
first, so if the food looks good, they are more likely to enjoy it. To achieve restaurant-quality
presentation, layer the food and experiment with contrasting colors and textures to make
it as appealing as possible.
What’s New?
Lean fish
✓ Lean fish has almost no fat, so it easily becomes dry. It is best served with sauces to
enhance moistness and gives richness.
✓ Poaching is the moist heat method suited
✓ Fish should be basted with butter or oil if broiled or baked.
✓ Lean fish maybe fried or sautéed to gain palatability from added fat.
Fat fish
✓ The fat in fish, enables them to tolerate more heat without becoming dry.
✓ Fat fish can be cooked by poaching.
✓ Fat fish are well suited to broiling and baking. The dry heat methods eliminate
excessive oiliness.
✓ Large fat fish like salmon, and mackerel may be cooked in fat, but care should be
taken to avoid excessive greasiness.
Shellfish
✓ Cook oyster just enough to heat thoroughly to keep it juicy and plump.
✓ Clams become tough and rubbery if overcooked
✓ Shrimps like other shellfish, become tough and rubbery when cooked at high
temperature.
Plating and presentation refers to the arrangement of food on the plate dressed
with a sauce or topped with garnishing. These simple touches make dishes visually more
appealing. Here are the three fundamentals to know before developing your plating
styles.
What Is It?
FISH
A. Scaling Whole Fish
Once your work area and fish are ready, you can begin the actual scaling process.
1. Lay your fish flat 2. Hold the fish 3. Begin to rake the 4. Be sure to
on the board or down firmly with scales from the tail remove the scales
hold it steady in the your hand near its towards the head. on both sides of the
water. head. They should coming fish, as well as
off in clumps. scales near the fins,
the collar, and the
tail.
5. When you think you have gotten most of the scales, rinse the fish off again with
water. This will wash away any loose scales and help you to identify any remaining
scales that need to be removed.
B. Filleting Fish
1. Cut behind the head while angling the knife toward the front of the fish. There is a lot of
good flesh on the top side where the fillet extends under the bony plate of the skull and
angling the knife will ensure you do not waste it. Cut down to the bone and follow the
line through to just behind the fins.
2. Turn the fish and run the knife just clear of the fins with slight downward angle. When you
feel the knife is down to the bone reduce the angle and follow the bone until you come
up against the backbone.
3. Peel the fillet back and run the knife over the backbone the small lateral fish bones in
the process. Stop at this point.
4. Turn the fish over and repeat the procedure.
5. Repeat the second cut near the dorsal fin with the knife angled slightly down.
6. Continue this along the length of the fish.
7. Reverse the direction of the filleting knife and follow bones by "feeling them" with the
fillet knife until the fish backbone is reached.
8. Peel the fillet back and cut around the backbone and through the small lateral bones.
Run the fillet knife right through to the skin on the underside of the fish.
9. Cut over the belly flap either through or over the belly bones. It easily cut through here
with the razor-sharp filleting knife.
10. Cut any remaining attached sinew or skin. Remove the first fillet.
11. Flip the fish back to the original side and cut the bones around the gut cavity.
12. Release the rest of the fillet from the backbone.

C. Skinning Fish
When filleting or skinning fish keep the skinning knife clean and wet, this
lubricates the blade and gives a much cleaner cut, more control of the knife and far less
drag on the sides of the blade.
6. The fillet and skin are parted and no fleshes has been
wasted nor have left any skin or scales on the fillet. If
you scroll up you will note the knife has not moved
over the last four fish skinning pictures.
D. Deboning Fish
The fillet is now deboned and the piece on the right of the picture above is discarded
or washed and put aside with the fish heads and back bones for making fish stock.
SHELLFISH
A. Opening Oyster
Hold oyster cup side down and hinge pointed towards you.
4. Push knife into oyster and slice muscle from top shell
6. Cut muscle from bottom cup. Turn the meat over for
most professional appearance
B. Opening Clams
insert the clam knife between the top shell and bottom
shell. A towel can be used to protect your hand. Work
the knife around to cut through hinge muscle The bowl will
catch the liquor from the clam.
3. Open the shell. Slide the knife between the clam and the hell.
Detach the clam.
Cut Tentacles
5. Pull out the tail tube and cartilage 6. Pull off the skin
A lobster split is not only an attractive style for presentation, but also enables easy
access to the delicious meat inside. Turn the lobster around and continue the cut through
the center of the head.
Fundamental of Plating
1. Balance – select foods and garnishes that offer variety and contrast
Glazing
Poached fish is sometimes glazed before serving
1. Combine the finished sauce with egg yolk,
hollandaise sauce or lightly whipped cream.
2. Coat the fish with the sauce and run the plate under
Broiler until the sauce is golden brown.
