Activities
Complete the following activities.

1. Provide a detailed description of each of the following found in a Food Production Plan.

Mise en place lists This plan outlines the preparation of ingredients and tools before the
cooking process begins. It includes chopping, measuring, and
arranging ingredients, as well as setting up equipment.
Equipment lists This document lists all the tools and machinery needed for food
production. It may include items like ovens, mixers, knives, and
specific utensils, often with quantities and specifications.

Purchase orders These are official documents sent to suppliers to order necessary
ingredients or equipment. They detail the type, quantity, and price of
items, and often include delivery dates.

Staff allocations
This plan outlines the roles and responsibilities of each staff member
in the food production process. It includes work schedules, task
assignments, and may also include training requirements.

2. Provide an outline of the food production processes that take place for each of the
following stages:

Food items received This stage involves the inspection and acceptance of raw materials
from suppliers and ingredients delivered to the food production facility. It includes
checking for quality, quantity, and freshness of the items received.
Mise en place This process refers to the preparation and organization of all

Bryan Peach Institute Pty. Ltd. T/A Peach Institute

Student Assessment Tasks SITHKOP013 - Plan Cooking Operations

necessary ingredients, tools, and equipment before starting the

cooking process. It involves measuring, cutting, chopping, and
arranging ingredients to ensure a smooth workflow during cooking.
Food preparation This stage involves the actual cooking and assembly of the food
items. It includes following recipes, cooking techniques, and
portioning the food. Preparing also involves seasoning, marinating,
and mixing ingredients to enhance flavors.
This process involves applying heat to the prepared ingredients to
transform them into cooked food. It includes various cooking
Cooking stage
methods such as boiling, frying, baking, grilling, or steaming,
depending on the recipe and desired outcome.
Food storage After cooking, food needs to be stored properly to maintain its
quality and safety. This stage involves cooling, packaging, and
storing the cooked food in appropriate containers or refrigeration
units to prevent spoilage and bacterial growth.
Food reconstitution This process refers to the rehydration or reconstitution of
dehydrated or concentrated food items. It involves adding water or
other liquids to restore the original texture and flavor of the food
before serving.
Re-thermalisation of In this stage, previously cooked and stored food is reheated to the
food appropriate serving temperature. It ensures that the food is safe to
consume and maintains its quality before being served to
customers.
Food service from The final stage involves presenting the prepared food to customers.
kitchen It includes plating, garnishing, and arranging the food attractively.
Serving also involves providing appropriate portion sizes and
ensuring that the food is served at the correct temperature.

3. Discuss HACCP and identify the critical control points in food production where food
hazards must be controlled.

HACCP is a management system in which food safety is addressed through the

analysis and control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards from raw material
production, procurement and handling, to manufacturing, distribution and consumption
of the finished product

ensuring that all potential allergens are labelled on a food or that the garbage bins are
cleaned and sanitised weekly. The result of applying a CCP should be to prevent,
eliminate or minimise the risk of a hazard to a safe and acceptable level.

Student Assessment Tasks SITHKOP013 - Plan Cooking Operations

4. Discuss the characteristics of each of the following food service styles:

A la carte
Individual dishes are ordered from a menu. Each dish is priced
separately. Customers have a wide variety of choices.

Buffet
Food is displayed on a table or counter, and customers serve
themselves. There is a wide selection of dishes available.

Set menu or Table

d’hote A fixed menu is offered with a predetermined
number of courses. Customers choose from a limited selection of
dishes for each course.

Bulk cooking operations

Large quantities of food are prepared in advance and stored. The

food is then portioned and served as needed. Common in
institutional settings.

Functions and events

Food is prepared and served for special occasions or gatherings,
such as weddings or conferences. The menu and service style are
tailored to the event.

5. When preparing dishes in a commercial kitchen there are many important factors that must
be considered in regard to food preparation requirements. For each of the following factors,
discuss three (3) food preparation requirements you must take into consideration.

Meal quantities Meal quantities required

required - identify the quantity of dishes that must be baked to satisfy the
demand.
- Factors include client volume, meal times, and any noteworthy
occasions or promotional activities

Menu items
Specify the particular dishes and recipes that will be featured on
the menu.
- Each menu item's necessary ingredients, culinary procedures,
and preparation time should be
consider.

Organisational Comply with the guidelines and standards established by the

standards establishment or organization.
- Food safety regulations, quality standards, and portion sizes are
all factors to consider.

Portion control
Determine the portion size for each menu item
Consider things like customer preferences, dietary requirements,

and price considerations

Special dietary Consider your client's special dietary requirements or restrictions.

requirements - Consider things like allergies, intolerances, vegetarian or vegan
diets, and religious dietary restrictions

Special customer Adapt to the specific demands and needs of our customers.
requests - Consider things like customization options, substitutions, and
changes to menu items

Standard recipes
Use standard recipes to ensure consistency and quality of food
preparation.
Standard recipes
- Consider things like oven availability, oven settings, and oven
scaling for different batch sizes.
Determine the time available for food preparation and service.
- Consider things like meal times, rush hours, and the need to
prepare or cook in advance

Timeframe
Consider things like meal times, rush hours, and the need to
prepare or cook in advance

6. Outline the processes for ordering and purchasing stock using both of the following
avenues:

Ordering direct from

suppliers

Ordering direct from suppliers refers to the process of purchasing

stock directly from the manufacturers or suppliers of the products. In
this process, the buyer contacts the supplier directly to place an order
for the desired items. The buyer and supplier negotiate the terms of
the purchase, including the quantity, price, delivery schedule, and
payment terms. Once the order is confirmed, the supplier prepares
the goods for shipment and delivers them to the buyer's specified
location. This process allows businesses to establish direct
relationships with suppliers, ensuring a reliable and efficient supply
chain.

Ordering through a
central stock ordering
system Ordering through a central stock ordering system involves using a
centralized platform or software to manage and streamline the stock
ordering process. This system typically includes a database of
available products, supplier information, and inventory levels. When
placing an order, the buyer accesses the system, selects the desired
items, and submits the order electronically. The system then
automatically generates purchase orders, sends them to the respective

suppliers, and tracks the order status. This process eliminates the
need for manual paperwork, reduces errors, and provides real-time
visibility into stock levels and order status. It also allows for better
coordination and control of stock ordering across multiple locations
or departments within an organization.
