Why use Recipes to Learn English ? (Source LHS E.Maggio) There are many reasons why using recipes in an ESL/LINC classroom is a good way to learn and practice English. The content can help students in all 4 skills, Listening/Speaking/Reading/Writing. Since food can be a topic that involves history, culture, politics and religion it is a rich source of material for discussion and touches us all. In addition, learning about Canadian culture and society will include not only traditional Canadian cuisine, but more current topics addressing health awareness, nutrition and food products. All of this makes for a dynamic and interesting lesson for students to share with each other.

o Write a recipe o Change numerals to written form o Students add text to sequenced pictures
 *  Writing Activities **

o Vocabulary building o Re-sequence order of recipe o Scavenger hunt (grocery store & flyers) o Gap-fill & matching tasks with recipe prompt o Abbreviation practice
 *  Reading Activities **

o Student dictation of recipe o Pronunciation (numbers, vocabulary etc) o Telling a story, memory etc.
 *  Speaking Activities **

o YouTube cooking channels for comprehension o Cooking documentaries/movies for note-taking o Cooking podcasts on iTunes
 *  Listening Activities **

o Parts of speech o Count/Non-count nouns o Plurals o Quantifiers & partitives o Verb tenses (eg. present, continuous)

Busy 22/11/2013


 * Hi Busy, **
 * In Canada, Quebec specifically, we call this recipe in French "Pudding Chomeur" or the English call it "Bread Pudding". "Pudding Chomeur" means Pudding for the "Unemployed". When we are not working, we don't want to waste anything. I think this is a great 'green' recipe > Reduce/Reuse/Recycle. Nothing is wasted and 'day old' bread works best for this most delicous recipe. It is my husband's most favourite pudding. I don't have his mother's recipe and I've been trying to make it like hers for many years. I will try your recipe. For a Canadian version, I like to put nutmeg spice and also maple syrup in this pudding. **


 * If cooking is your passion, it is an excellent way to practice your English. Reading recipes, listening to youtube recipes and the cooking channel (not Gordon Ramsey unless you want to make people around you cry!), writing down your recipes in a similar style that you see in Cookbooks, and sharing your passion with others makes a great conversation starter that absolutely so many people love! **

= Steps of making dumplings = = = step 1. Preparing the stuffing, what kind of ingredients will be used? Normally, we use vegetables,meat,seafood and seasoing. Vegetables are cabbage,cowpea,mushrooms,green beans,shallot... Meat will be pork,beef,lamb and sometimes eggs...  About seafood, shrimps is widely used or even lobsters,scallop...  Rape oil or Oliver oil, sea salt,soy sauce,sesame oil,ginger powder are necessary as seasoning. Step 2. Slice the vegetables,meat,seafood as small pieces as you can. Step 3. Put everthing into a basin and add the seasoning based on your taste then stir in ONLY one direction. Step 4. Preparing the crust-- two ways to get it: 1: buy the ready-made directly from a Chinese supermarket or, 2: Do it yourself. If DIY, using bread-maker to prepare the dough, cutting the dough into small size and each of them is as large as your palm and the tickness should within 1mm. Step 5. It's time to put the stuffing into the crust. Put proper sized stuffing at the middle of the crust and use your finger to pinch along the edge of the crust tightly. Done. Step 6. Cooking the dumplings. Put the dumplings into a pot with boiled water, when the water boiled again, add cold water in, do this action twice until the dumpling becomes fat, during the cooking, NO cover at any time. Step 7. Enjoy it! Thank you.

Hi Happy, Creme fraiche is not really very healthy ... but will make you happy! It can be made very easily with heavy cream, sour cream or buttermilk ... and it is left out on the counter overnight to thicken. The next morning, you can put it in the fridge and keep it if you can for up to 10 days. You can use this thick cream (like whipping cream, but a bit tart) on fresh fruit, or even in hot creme sauces. I will leave it up to you to google the recipe because there are many versions... all no doubt delicious.
