0:54
part the yellow part is called the

Yoke the white part is called the white
1:01
of the egg or the egg white when you

meat when you carve something you cut it
1:42
into thin
1:45
slices look at this man
1:49

1:53
meat you can see that he is using a
1:57
large forklike tool
2:00

2:04
knife using the knife he makes slic of
2:16
meat let's look at the next

knife the next word is
2:49
chop when you chop something you cut it

pieces let's take a look at a picture of
3:00
What chop looks
3:02
like these will be some chopped
3:11
vegetables here are the pieces of
3:15
vegetables that have been cut into small
3:20
pieces they have been
3:27
chopped the next word is
3:30
break break means to separate into
3:34
smaller pieces by
3:38
force if you break for example a window
3:43
maybe your younger sibling has done this
3:46
they might throw a ball and the window
3:50
will
3:51
shatter it will break into many tiny
3:55
pieces when you break something for a
3:59
recipe
4:00
it's often referring to something like
4:05
spaghetti when spaghetti is raw and has
4:10
not been cooked yet you often want to
4:13
take the spaghetti like this and break
4:16
it in half so that you can put it in the
4:21
pot and boil it more
4:25
easily just wait we will be learning the
4:28
word boil
4:30
let's take a look at
4:34
break as we just learned break means to
4:39
separate into smaller parts by
4:43
force like we said this could be used
4:46
with
4:53
spaghetti the next word is
4:57
crush crush means to separate or
5:04
flatten let's take a look at the
5:07
picture here we can see an example of
5:11
what it means to crush
5:14
garlic When you crush something you
5:18
separate or flatten
5:21
it often in recipes you will be asked to
5:26
crush garlic you can do this with with a
5:30
knife or you can do this with a mortar
5:34
and pestl as pictured in the
5:43
picture great is the next word great
5:48
means to divide into small parts by
5:52
rubbing on a serrated
5:56
surface now serrated is a big
6:00
word it basically means that there are a
6:05
bunch of tiny holes on the surface of
6:09
the instrument that are sharp so when
6:12
you rub the
6:14
cheese over the serrated surface it will
6:19
actually turn into
6:22
shreds that is what we call grating the
6:26
cheese let's take a look at an example
6:30
of
6:31
that great to divide into small parts by
6:36
rubbing on a serrated
6:39
surface here we can see the tool with
6:43
the serrated
6:45
surface here we can see the grated
6:49
cheese or the shredded
6:52
cheese this was created by rubbing the
6:56
block of cheese on the Sur ated
7:04
surface mince to grind or chop food into
7:09
very small
7:12
pieces here we see an example of minced
7:16
garlic I like garlic so I'm using it for
7:20
a lot of these
7:21
examples you can see that the garlic is
7:26
very finely chopped
7:30
finely chopped is another way of saying
7:35
minced finely refers to the fact that
7:40
the pieces are very very
7:47
small slice to cut into thin wide
7:54
portions portions refers to the amount
7:59
of food that you
8:01
get slice is how you cut
8:08
something normally bread is
8:13
sliced at a restaurant you could ask for
8:17
a slice of
8:20
bread here is an example of two slices
8:25
of bread
8:33
when you need something it means to
8:36
press and stretch dough usually used
8:40
with making
8:42
bread here we can see that this
8:45
person is
8:48
stretching and
8:50
pressing the
8:53
bread this could or the dough sorry this
8:56
could turn into bread
9:02
the next word is mix when you mix
9:06
something you usually have it in a bowl
9:10
and you go like this very rapidly
9:15
because you want all of the
9:18
ingredients all of the things in the
9:21
bowl to be
9:24
combined you want all of the ingredients
9:28
to combin Bine
9:31
together let's take a look at the
9:34
official
9:37
definition mix to combine two or more
9:41
things using a spoon spatula or electric
9:51
mixer have you ever had a cheese
9:54
sandwich
9:56
before have you ever cooked with butter
10:01
if you answered yes to either of those
10:03
two questions you already know what the
10:08
word melt
10:11
means let's look at the official
10:15
definition melt to make something liquid
10:20
by heating
10:25
it the next word is peel
10:29
you can peel many fruits and
10:33
vegetables when you peel something you
10:36
are taking the skin off of the fruit or
10:43
vegetable let's look at a
10:46
picture peel to take the skin off fruits
10:51
vegetables garlic
10:55
Etc here we can see an example of an
11:00
orange
11:03
peel this has been taken off of the
11:07
orange so the orange has been
11:15
peeled the next word has to do with
11:20
liquid we if we had two cups of water
11:25
and I did this
11:31
I just poured water into the other
11:37
glass now what if I wanted to
11:40
pour this water into this glass let's
11:44
pour
11:48
it now you understand
11:53
pour pour to transfer liquid from one
11:57
container to another
12:04
another the next thing I'd like to talk
12:07
about is
12:09
Stir now the word stir is very similar
12:13
to the word
12:15
mix but when you mix something you're
12:19
often mixing this way and that way and
12:22
up and down and side to side when you
12:26
stir something you're going going in a
12:30
circular
12:32
motion imagine I have a big bowl of
12:36
cookie dough because I want to make
12:39
chocolate chip
12:40
cookies but in order to combine
12:44
ingredients I need to
12:48
stir the ingredients in the
12:52
bowl
12:54
stir to mix liquid ingredients by moving
12:58
a spoon around round in a circular
13:11
motion now I'd like to talk about a
13:14
couple different ways to cook
13:19
something cook means to prepare food by
13:25
heating it so the food is not raw
13:31
essentially when you cook something you
13:34
are adding heat to it using a stove a
13:40
grill or something
13:48
similar the next word I would like to
13:50
introduce to you is
13:54
bake here in America we have a very
13:58
popular holiday you've probably heard of
14:01
it called
14:04
Thanksgiving during Thanksgiving we bake
14:08
many dishes in the
14:12
oven baking is a very popular way to
14:17
cook
14:18
something when you bake food you cook it
14:22
in an oven by using
14:26
heat here we can see an
14:31
oven this part is usually referred to as
14:37
the oven and this part is referred to as
14:43
the stove
14:45
top if your recipe tells you to use the
14:50
stove put the pot
14:53
here if the recipe says to bake the food
14:59
put it in the
15:06
oven one very popular summer activity is
15:14
barbecuing people love to
15:17
barbecue and a lot of the time they only
15:22
barbecue
15:24
Meats in reality you can barbecue or
15:28
grill
15:29
either meats or
15:32
vegetables you want to make sure that
15:34
you have a very good barbecue
15:38
sauce here in Texas where I live many
15:42
people have made delicious recipes for
15:46
barbecue
15:48
sauce then after marinating the meat in
15:52
the barbecue sauce they put it on the
15:55
grill
16:01
barbecue to cook foods often meet on a
16:06
grill by using fire or
16:10
coals here we can see the meat on the
16:16
grill or the
16:19
barbecue you can use either
16:22
word underneath the meat we can see hot
16:27
coals
16:29
these hot coals are providing the heat
16:33
so that the meat will
16:39
cook when you grill something it's very
16:44
similar to barbecuing
16:48
something depending on where you are
16:51
speaking
16:53
English normally Grill and
16:56
Barbecue are
17:00
used rep replace either word can be
17:07
used now we're almost done with this
17:10
lesson I just want to teach you a couple
17:13
more
17:14
words the first is
17:18
boil boiling is very common you are
17:22
probably very familiar with hardboiled
17:26
eggs you can also boil vegetables and
17:31
meats if you are making a soup you're
17:35
probably going to boil
17:37
it boil to heat water until little
17:42
bubbles
17:47
form broiling is used when you need to
17:51
cook something on a very very very high
17:55
heat you still use the oven in in this
17:59
case but you need to turn up the heat
18:03
very
18:05
high bro to cook meat or vegetables on a
18:11
rack with an extremely high
18:20
temperature personally I love Chinese
18:24
food Chinese food is often made with a
18:29
walk and they use a term called stir fry
18:35
to describe the way the food is
18:38
cooked let's look at the definition for
18:42
fry fry to cook by putting the food into
18:48
extremely hot
18:51
oil here we can see paneer an Indian
18:57
dish that is being being fried in a
19:02
pan depending on the type of food you're
19:06
making you may have to heat the pan and
19:10
the oil first and possibly even season
19:15
the oil before putting in the
19:22
food as I mentioned before here in
19:26
America we go crazy C over cooked
19:30
turkeys we just love
19:33
them one way to cook a turkey is to
19:38
roast the
19:40
turkey let's look at an example of a
19:43
roasted bird roast to cook in the oven
19:48
or over a
19:50
fire here we can see a roast
19:54
chicken doesn't that look delicious
20:05
if you are worried about your
20:07
health and trying to avoid fatty foods
20:11
in your
20:12
diet a good
20:15
alternative or other option to frying
20:20
food is to steam it you can steam pretty
20:27
much any vegetable
20:29
let's take a
20:30
look steam to cook by placing the food
20:35
above boiling
20:38
water here we can see some steamed
20:43
cauliflower with green
20:48
sauce thanks for watching that's all for
