Lesson 7

We had the practical session. I think that it didn't go so well because I finished too quickly. Also, my cakes had too much sugar on them. However, I liked the taste of the matcha because it was bitter and not too sweet like the commercially-produced ones.

Regarding the weekly blogging sessions,

I managed to update my blog punctually and on time. However, I think I was too general and not detailed enough. 

I rectified my problems when I couldn't think of ideas for my blog by searhching the internet to read other peoples' opinions.

The nutritional tools were very helpful because I could objectively qualify food as "healthy" or "not healthy". Usually, the we look at food, we just pass judgement on its "healthiness" immediately based on its look. Somethings that may seem unhealthy might be healthy, and vice versa if we do not use the right tools to objectively judge their health value.

I was able to modify recipes to some extent to make them healthier through small modifications, either by change of ingredient or method.
