What we learned in culinary school this week: Week 2

This week, we finished stocks and moved into soups. And learned that:

When catering, prep as much in advance as possible and do as little on site as possible, because you don't have as much control on site.

Rendering = removing moisture.

Veal stock in progress.

French onion soup.

Tortilla soup.

Minestrone.

San Francisco clam chowder.
