Beverage operation of a hotel. It deserves special mention
because some supervisory and executive positions are occupied
by highly skilled individuals. They are also well paid and
headhunted by the best! This may sound like a very enticing
career option, but bear in mind that it takes many years of hard
work and passion to excel in this area.

HYGIENE IN KITCHEN
Hygiene in Kitchen The use of premises which are clean and can be
correctly maintained is essential for the preparation, cooking and
service of food. Cross contamination risks should be minimized by
provision of separate preparation areas for the various raw and cooked
foods. The table describes the various fittings and fixtures that are
needed to be considered in a kitchen before the main equipment is
planned.
Physical Attributes
The physical attributes contains the proper personal hygiene and
appearance. Since waiting staff deals with food, utmost cleanliness
and good grooming is necessary at all times. This applies not only in
high class hotels, but in every branch of catering however humble it
may be. Guest are not likely to return to an establishment where staff
does not maintain proper hygiene and grooming. There are times
when food & beverage professionals are required to work overtime.
Lifting and carrying service equipment also requires staff to be
physically fit.
Hair: - Hair should be kept healthy, trimmed and avoid dandruff. Hair should
never fall over the eyes. Waitresses may adopt neat hair styles and particularly
ensure a hair length which does not fall on to or below the collar or lengthy
hair should be combed and tied neatly and properly.
Teeth:- Teeth and a clean mouth are vital, both for appearance and a
wholesome breath. Brush your teeth immediately before coming to
duty. Do not eat onion, garlic or smoke before your shift. If you smoke,
use mouthwash.
Hands:- Always wash hands with soap before coming on shift keep
your nails short and clean. Hands must always be clean, free of any
stains and skin breaks. Always wash hands with soap, immediately
after using toilets, eating, smoking or handling refuse.
The ongoing debate about the role and impact of genetics (Nature)
and socialization (Nature) on our attitudes, behaviour, and reasoned
action will provide further insight and understanding of why we work
and deal with ourselves and others in the way that we do. However, at
this stage, we have sufficient understanding of these functions to
identify their consequences for our work, particularly in the hospitality
industry. In hospitality, this self awareness and discipline can be of
considerable advantage Hospitality work tends to involve long hours
with bursts of intense activity driven by a combination of production
and customer interaction pressures. While same people are
considered ―naturals‖ in this environment, others, who still have
commitments to hospitality, may struggle to cope in this environment,
and consequently find themselves under achieving in the industry.
However, if these people are able to recognize that their actions and
behaviour in these situations are a function of their attitudes, which
are in turn a function of their socialization and genetic make up they
can embark upon a program to modify their attitudes by way of ―re
learning‖ and adjusting their attitudes toward the situation. In turn,
they can also develop specific.
Ovens
The oven and the range top are the two workhorses of the traditional
kitchen, which is why they are so often found in the same unit. Ovens
are enclosed spaces in which food is heated, usually by hot air or, in
some newer kinds of ovens, by microwaves or infrared radiation. In
addition to roasting and baking, ovens can do many of the jobs
normally done on the range top. Many foods can be simmered,
stewed, braised, or poached in the oven, freeing the range top and the
chef's attention for other tasks. There are many kinds of ovens beyond
those discussed here, but they are often for specialty or high volume
uses. These include conveyor ovens, which carry foods through the
oven on a steel conveyor belt; holding ovens or warmers, which are
designed to hold many types of foods at serving temperatures for
extended periods without drying out or overcooking (this category
includes ovens that also cook the food, then automatically switch to
holding temperature); and high-volume roll-in ovens, with large doors
into which one can roll carts loaded with trays of food.
2.Peeler
Use for peeling the raw potato, with the help of special emery lining
inside the feeder, Peeler is designed aesthetically and is used to peel
the skin of potatoes in faster way. Potato peeler leads to minimum
peel loss and for better peeling and continuous flow of water in the
drum helps to carry away the waste from drainage pipe. The drum
storage capacity ranges from 6 to 8 kg potatoes. Care while using
peeling machines: Potatoes should be free of earth and stones before
loading into the machine
, otherwise damage to the machine will result. Before any potatoes
are loaded, the water spray should be turned on and the
abrasive plates set in motion. The interior should be cleaned daily
and the abrasive plate removed to ensure
that small particles are not lodged below. The- peel trap should be
emptied as frequently as required
. The waste outlet should be kept free from obstructions.
Chicken tikka
Chicken tikka is a chicken dish popularised in the Indian
subcontinent during the Mughal era. The dish is popular in India,
Bangladesh, Pakistan and the United Kingdom.[1] It is traditionally
small pieces of boneless chicken baked using skewers on a
brazier called angeethi or over charcoal after marinating in Indian
spices and dahi (yogurt)—essentially a boneless version
of tandoori chicken.[2] The word tikka (tike in Turkish, and tikə in
Azerbaijani) is a Persian word, meaning "bits" or "pieces". It is
also a chicken dish served in Punjabi cuisine. The Kashmiri
version of the dish, however, is grilled over red-hot coals, and
does not always contain boneless pieces. The pieces are
brushed with ghee (clarified butter) at intervals to increase its
flavour, while being continuously fanned. It is typically eaten with
green coriander and tamarind chutney served with onion rings
and lemon, or used in preparing an authentic chicken tikka
masala.[3]
A chicken tikka sizzler is a dish where chicken tikka is served on
a heated plate with onions. The dish is also popular
in Afghanistan, though the Afghan variant (like many
other Persian, Turkish, and Arab dishes) is less spicy compared
to the variants in the Indian subcontinent and uses beef and lamb
in addition to chicken.
Paneer tikka
Paneer tikka or Paneer Soola or Chhena Soola is an Indian
dish made from chunks of paneer/ chhena marinated in
spices and grilled in a tandoor. It is a vegetarian alternative
to chicken tikka and other meat dishes. It is a popular dish
that is widely available in India and countries with an Indian
diaspora.
Chunks of paneer, a type of fresh cheese, are marinated in
spices and are then arranged on a stick with capsicums (bell
peppers), onions and tomatoes. These sticks are grilled in
a tandoor and the dish is thereafter served hot, seasoned
with lemon juice and chaat masala. It is sometimes
accompanied by salad or mint chutney. Tikka dishes
traditionally go well with mint chutney.The paneer, though
tender, has a crisp singe on the surface.
Tandoori chicken
Raw chicken parts are skinned then marinated in a mixture
of dahi (yogurt) and tandoori masala, a spice blend. They are
seasoned and colored with cayenne pepper, red chili powder, or
Kashmiri red chili powder as well as turmeric or food coloring.
The marinated chicken is placed on skewers and cooked at high
temperatures in a tandoor oven, which is heated with charcoal or
wood, which adds to the smoky flavour. The dish can also be
cooked in a standard oven, using a spit or rotisserie, or over hot
charcoal.
There are also tandoori recipes for whole chicken, some of which
are cooked in a tandoor and others over charcoal. These
include Chirga (Roasted whole chicken); Tandoori Murgh (Roast
whole chicken with almonds); Murgh Kabab Seekhi (Whole
stuffed chicken on the spit); Kookarh Tandoori (Steamed chicken
on spit); Tandoori Murgh Massaledarh (Whole spiced chicken on
spit); and Murghi Bhogar (Chicken in the Bhogar style)
Kadai paneer
Kadai paneer
Kadai Paneer (or known as Kadhai Paneer) is an
Indian dish made by cooking paneer and bell
peppers in a fragrant, freshly ground spice powder. It
is usually served with buttered naan, paratha, roti,
jeera rice, or steamed basmati rice.
It is of two types:
Kadai Paneer (Gravy
Kadai Paneer (Dry)
Chicken karahi
Chicken karahi (known as gosht karahi when
prepared with goat or lamb meat instead of chicken),
or kadai chicken, is a chicken dish from South Asia.
It is noted for its spicy taste and is notable in South
Asian cuisine. The dish is prepared in a karahi (a
type of wok) and can take between 30 and 50
minutes to prepare and cook the dish. Cumin, green
chilis, ginger, garlic, tomatoes and coriander are key
to the flavor of the dish. It is usually served with
naan, roti or rice. This dish is one of the hallmarks of
Pakistani cuisine.
French fries
French fries (North American English), chips (British
English and other national varieties),finger chips (Indian
English),french-fried potatoes, or simply fries,
are batonnet or allumette-cut deep-fried potatoes of disputed
origin from Belgium or France. They are prepared by cutting
potatoes into even strips, drying them, and frying them, usually in
a deep fryer. Pre-cut, blanched, and frozen russet potatoes are
widely used, and sometimes baked in a regular or convection
oven; air fryers are small convection ovens marketed for frying
potatoes.
French fries are served hot, either soft or crispy, and are
generally eaten as part of lunch or dinner or by themselves as a
snack, and they commonly appear on the menus of diners, fast
food restaurants, pubs, and bars. They are often salted and may
be served with ketchup, vinegar, mayonnaise, tomato sauce, or
other local specialities. Fries can be topped more heavily, as in
the dishes of poutine or chili cheese fries. French fries can be
made from sweet potatoes instead of potatoes. A baked variant,
oven fries, uses less or no oil.
Sandwich
A sandwich is a food typically consisting of vegetables, sliced cheese or
meat, placed on or between slices of bread, or more generally any dish
wherein bread serves as a container or wrapper for another food type.
The sandwich began as a portable, convenient finger food in the Western
world, though over time it has become prevalent worldwide.
In the 21st century there has been considerable debate over the precise
definition of sandwich, and specifically whether a hot dog or open
sandwich can be categorized as such. In the United States,
the Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration are
the responsible agencies. The USDA uses the definition, "at least 35%
cooked meat and no more than 50% bread" for closed sandwiches, and
"at least 50% cooked meat" for open sandwiches. In Britain, the British
Sandwich Association defines a sandwich as "any form of bread with a
filling, generally assembled cold", a definition which includes wraps and
bagels, but excludes dishes assembled and served hot, such as burgers.
