✘ Food allergy Type: egg allergy. Food intolerance Type:

Ingredients excluded or substituted:

Determine production requirements


Analyse the standard and special dietary recipe that you will be working from and answer the following questions.

 Describe the person’s food allergy or intolerance.

This individual has an egg allergy or sensitivity. Egg proteins have the potential to elicit an unfavourable immune response. This allergy is characterised by an
extreme reaction to a protein found in eggs.

 What are the ramifications for the person if their dietary need is not met?
The consequences that an individual may experience if their nutritional needs are not satisfied include:
 Allergic skin reactions.

 Runny nose.

 Watery and itchy eyes.

 Cramps
Who did you communicate with about the customer’s dietary need and why? What information did you seek?
In your answer, include details about how you clarified the customer’s requirements. You should also discuss how you worked with other members of your team to
ensure that the customer’s needs were met.
How did you clarify their exact requirements? How did you negotiate an appropriate response with other members of your team?
We will speak with the head chef who is on duty and inquire about our clients' online choices in order to fulfil their demands. while we ask questions to get clarity,
we get to know our customers' special needs and the important things to keep in mind while preparing meals for those with certain allergies.

Describe the steps that you took to respond to the customer’s dietary need. How did you access a recipe which met the customer’s specific needs?

 We take the following actions to meet specific dietary needs:

 We want to look up the food sensitivity requirements online.

 Is it possible for you to change the suggested menu?

 Set aside a space and collect the necessary utensils.

 Specialty diet foods must be labelled with symbols.

 It is necessary to have a list of components that are readily accessible at work on hand.

 Don't forget to add the chief's dietary requirements in the request.


Upon discovering a client's dietary needs, we may collaborate with them to create a specially prepared dish.
What process did you use to identify and access the specialised ingredients that you required to prepare the dish? List the specialised ingredients that you
accessed and how they satisfied the dietary needs of your customer. Consider ingredient labels, food additives and preservatives, common allergens and
nutritional values of ingredients.

Additionally, we need to be able to locate a suitable replacement for any item that the customer could be allergic to or sensitive to, based on the components we
presently have. We get the precise ingredients for the meal online while considering the customer's dietary preferences and gourmet preferences. The unusual
ingredients include yoghurt, avocado, mashed bananas, and gelatine gum. We modify the recipe in response to consumer requests to include more egg
substitutes.
Ingredient lists
Complete the following tables to compare the ingredients in the standard recipe with those in the recipe you modified.

Ingredient list – Standard recipe


Calculate the amount of each ingredient that you require. This ingredient list has been provided for you or you may like to use your organisation’s standard
template.

Recipe: Creamy eggs with smoked salmon and dill

Ingredient Qty Qty/serves Qty x serves required

Eggs 2 pieces 5 10 pieces

Low- fat milk 2 cups 5 10 cups

Buttery spread 1 ½ cups 5 7.5 cups

Dill ½ cups 5 2.5 cups

Smoked salmon 4 tsp 5 20 tsp

Black pepper ½ tsp 5 2.5 tsp

¼ tsp 5 1.5 tsp

Ingredient list – Modified recipe


Calculate the amount of each ingredient that you require. This ingredient list has been provided for you or you may like to use your organisation’s standard
template.

Recipe: Smoked salmon and dill with egg substitute

Ingredient Qty Qty/serves Qty x serves required

Tofu 2 pieces 5 10 pieces

Low- fat milk 2 cups 5 10 cups

Buttery spread 1 ½ cups 5 7.5 cups

Dill ½ cups 5 2.5 cups

Smoked salmon 4 tsp 5 20 tsp

Black pepper ½ tsp 5 2.5 tsp

Include in your answer a description of how the ingredients that you substituted optimised the nutritional quality of the dish.

Because the consumer had a sensitivity to eggs, egg products had to be replaced with tofu. We adhere to the recipe's instructions to maximize the amount of
nutrients in the meal.

Describe the cooking processes and methods that you used to ensure that the nutritional quality of the dish was maintained. Why did you choose the process that
you did? Why did you choose the equipment that you did?
Baking and grilling are two cooking techniques that are used to preserve the nutritional value of food. Since baking is the greatest method for making the meals
soft, we did that.

Describe the strategies that you used to prevent cross-contamination.


Include the strategies that you used to handle and store food in your answer.

 Keep eggs and egg products in their original container or somewhere secure.

 It is advised to clean any apparent dirt off of surfaces used in food preparation or cooking.

 Why Reasons Why Broken or cracked eggs should never be called for in recipes.

Describe the operational adjustments that you made in response to meeting your customer’s dietary requirements. What were the implications for mise en place?
How did you ensure that you still met commercial time constraints and deadlines despite adjusting/modifying recipes and ingredients? How did you adjust the
recipe to produce the desired quantities?
In response to a customer's dietary requirement, we performed an operational adjustment by finding out which individual components needed to be altered in the
recipe to lower the possibility of a food allergy. This recipe works well with a lot of egg substitutes. Instead of the egg products called for in the recipe, we utilise
eggs. Using the mise en place, which has all the supplies and tools required to prepare a meal, may help workers save time.
Reflection (What skills and techniques did I use? What policies and procedures did I follow? How did I ensure efficiency, safety and quality? How did I ensure that
I met quality standards? What did I learn and how might I apply this in future? What might I do differently next time?)
We examine a range of food sensitivities, including allergy to eggs. Egg proteins have the potential to elicit an unfavorable immune response. This allergy is
characterized by an extreme reaction to a protein found in eggs. We look at several precautions against foodborne disease and dishes that use non-egg
substitutes.

Ingredients excluded or substituted:

Determine production requirements


Analyse the standard and special dietary recipe that you will be working from and answer the following questions.

 Describe the person’s food allergy or intolerance.

The inability to digest dairy products is caused by an allergy in this person. This article discusses the damaging effects of cow's milk protein on the immune
system. Among the symptoms are vomiting, rashes, gastrointestinal problems, and wheezing.
 What are the ramifications for the person if their dietary need is not met?

The ramifications for the person if their dietary need is not met include:
 Rash.

 Hives

 Wheezing.

 Tightness in throat.

 Trouble swallowing.

Who did you communicate with about the customer’s dietary need and why? What information did you seek?
Since the head chef is in charge of the customer's diet, we let them know about any special dietary requirements. Maintaining the integrity and quality of the recipe
is our top priority.
To meet their requests, we shall check up on our guests' online preferences and have a conversation with the head chef who is on duty. We learn about our
clients' unique requirements and the crucial factors to consider while creating meals for those with specific allergies when we enquire about clarification from them.
In your answer, include details about how you clarified the customer’s requirements. You should also discuss how you worked with other members of your team to
ensure that the customer’s needs were met.
How did you clarify their exact requirements? How did you negotiate an appropriate response with other members of your team?
Through internet research and conversation, the special items required to prepare the dish were located and obtained. Certain plant-based foods are available to
us, such as rice and soy milk alternatives. We replaced the milk product with plant-based milk products to meet the customer's dietary needs.

Describe the steps that you took to respond to the customer’s dietary need. How did you access a recipe which met the customer’s specific needs?

The following steps were done in order to meet the client's dietary needs:
 Did internet research on the intolerance or allergy.

 Clearly stating to the customer what has to be done.

 Giving those with food sensitivity a list of alternatives.

 Informing the leader of the need.

 If we learn about a customer's dietary requirements, we may work with them to provide a customized meal.
Based on the components we presently have on hand, we should also be able to determine an appropriate substitute for any component that the consumer could
be allergic to or sensitive to.

What process did you use to identify and access the specialised ingredients that you required to prepare the dish? List the specialised ingredients that you
accessed and how they satisfied the dietary needs of your customer. Consider ingredient labels, food additives and preservatives, common allergens and
nutritional values of ingredients.

In order to meet the client's dietary needs, we substituted plant-based milk for the dairy elements in the dish. We decided on soy milk for the recipe's supper in
order to make it as wholesome as feasible.
