The Culinary 1 class at Jonathan Law hosted its very own “Soup-er Bowl” competition on February 12  in which four groups of students created different soups to be judged by their peers. 

The four different soups were chicken noodle, chili, cream of vegetable, and cream of mushroom. 

“Winter time is a great time for having soup and on because the Super Bowl was on Sunday, I thought I would do the S-O-U-P Super Bowl,” Culinary 1 teacher Mrs. Ferron said. “This gives my students that are just coming in this semester knife skills as they learned how to cut and chop. It was a great and fun thing for them to do.”

Students such as Amelia Mariani and Elly van Waveren learned valuable cooking skills from this project.

“It taught me what not to do and what to do in the kitchen,” Mariani said.

“Because of my mistakes, I know to use more salt in my chicken noodle soup and to cook my carrots for longer,” van Waveren said.

Student Gabby Lira also learned about the basics of cooking.

“We learned how to put the right measurements of salt and pepper so that the soup doesn’t taste bad,” Lira said.

The winner of the contest was the cream of vegetable soup. The chili was awarded second place.
