Note: The number of foods prepared in each lesson
will depend on the length of the class period, and
working facilities. Three hours once a week is much
better than a shorter period twice a week. It is some-
times desirable to review one or two fundamental
recipes, like biscuits, until each member of the class
is proficient. The number of recipes made by each
student should depend upon the length of the lesson.
