Cooking Terms #14

Worksheet Description

The “Things You Cook In” worksheet is a creative and educational activity designed to teach students about various cooking vessels and their specific uses. Students are given the names of different cooking tools—Dutch Oven, Double Boiler, Skewer, and Springform Pan—and are directed to draw a picture of each item in the space provided. After illustrating, they must write down the primary use of each cooking item, thereby connecting the visual aspect with its practical function in the kitchen.

This worksheet is an excellent way for students to engage with practical kitchen equipment, encouraging them to visualize and understand how each item is utilized in cooking and baking. For instance, they would illustrate and describe how a Dutch Oven is used for slow-cooking stews and casseroles.

By drawing the items, students reinforce their memory and recognition of the cooking tools, which is an essential skill for practical kitchen work. The activity is beneficial for both young learners who are new to cooking and more advanced students who are refining their culinary knowledge. The worksheet’s clear layout and straightforward instructions make it an accessible and enjoyable task for students of all ages.
