To continue with our relaxing schedule was our carving class. The media for carving is determined by the season: in winter, you work with ice, in summer with lard. I was a little reluctant to try ice carving as I heard that a student from the previous term had injured herself and been sent to the hospital for stitches. And I can be pretty clumsy when under stress.
It was a very enjoyable class. Chef A is a master carver and to see him work is absolutely awe-inspiring. In less than an hour he turned a flawed block of ice into a beautiful swan.
On a team with Jess and Franceska, we made a polar bear. We were getting along pretty well with it, when it starting to rain quite heavily. Everyone did a really amazing job for the first time ice carving. Chef A helped with the finishing touches for us so we return back to the warmth and dryness of the school.
