The Lie

This past week we looked at a video called The Lie it was about children that were told lie, like they said that black people are thieves,  but they told people the truth in the video, that all of them are not thieves. After watching that video our teacher Mr. Scott told us to do something like that, but write it. This is the lie that I heard people and kids said to me and to others.
Since I was blogging here was writing mostly happy blogs, but today is different, anyway I hope you'll like it, also I have a question Did you ever do this or are you relating to what I experienced? Bye!!

My Persuasive Writing!

These past weeks we have been learning about health and nutrition. We had learnt about how to be healthy and even how to choose your food. Then at the 3rd week of this term we have to write a persuasive writing about our favorite food. I chose kalamay because I absolutely love it, after I had research some facts about this food and then wrote them in my own words and add what I already know about it. I really hope you'll be persuade to eat this Filipino food because I am, yet see you next time; Bye!!!!


Hook:
There is a sticky food that means “sugar” and it’s a delicacy in the Philippines, what is it? Kalamay!! It is a delicacy that is similar to Nian gao which is also a delicacy, but in China. Also it is a cousin of the dodol which is found over Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore and in some parts of the Philippines!!! Did you know, that there is not just one kind of kalamay around the Philippines? Because there are dozens! From the dozens of region that are in there!

Arguments:

It is not a grain. But is made with it, it might not beat a vegetable with it’s nutrition, yet is good. The kalamay have many calories that would make you fast as flash, it depends on what ingredients you choose. The kalamay has only a bit of sugar and fat so don’t worry, the fat and sugar that you put in it can be also good for your nutrition so you can keep a balance diet. If you're feeling down and a bit tired you could eat kalamay to make your body feel as strong as superman in a flash. (Down below are the nutrition facts about the kalamay na latik)

It could have many usage like a delicious, delectable dessert and can also  be an exchange for a  mouth watering cake, if you don’t have one. It gives lots  and lots of energy and very healthy. And also you can make different kinds of them, like the kalamay na ube/purple, kalamay na latik, sapin sapin and many other more. You can even make one right now.

There are dozens of the kinds of the kalamay but this is my personal favorite, the kalamay na latik. This is the recipe.

First you will need

2¼ cups muscovado or brown sugar
2 cups coconut milk
2 cups coconut cream
½ cup water
½ cup of Latik
to make kalamay

Then just follow this steps

  1. Firstly prepare a plate or round pan that you will use for the kalamay. Then start by placing a clean banana leaf or a parchment paper over it. Brush some cooking oil or coconut oil on the banana leaf or if it is parchment paper don’t put the oil. After set it aside.
  2. Now what you will do is combine the coconut milk, coconut cream, water, and glutinous rice flour in a deep cooking pot. Next  mix it well until the texture of the mixture becomes soft. You can use wire whisk if necessary.
  3. Afterwards turn the heat on to medium. Now Gradually stir it until the mixture starts to get hot or warm. While stirring you might notice that lumps will form,  but continue to stir until bubbles appear.
  4. At this moment set the heat to low-medium. Next continue to stir for about15 minutes.
  5. Add the sugar. After mix well to incorporate.  Continue your mixing for the next 30 to 40 minutes or just until the mixture becomes really thick and the color turns dark brown.
  6. Now you can transfer the thick mixture on the prepared plate or pan that we made.
  7. You can spread and top with latik if you want to( the recipe is at a website, here is the link latik.


 Let it cool for a few minutes or eat it hot.

Ending:

All of that are only in one kind of kalamay. So now think of the kalamay there still is. More nutrients, more treats, more taste. Sometimes it can also be bad, yes. But the kalamay have many nutrients, you can either choose other stuff to put it on the top when it’s done so it will be more healthier or take a fruit and eat it with the kalamay. Also you can taste the taste of what filipinos taste, taste the food of many other religions, is a great treat and the most delicious, most yummiest treat in the world.  Also when eating it, it gives me such energy that I want to run around the world. Now that you know a bit more of the delicious food you can make, then eat it, or maybe do some more research about it, but I hope you will atleast try the Kalamay.
Now these are the strategy that I used in my writing

Master Chef Day!

Today is a great day, because today is master chef day. This day we are learning how to be a master chef and how to make a healthy food for our shared lunch. Early at the day we still need some stuff to make our healthy foods, and I was chose to go grocery shopping with my friends and some adults. We had a great time looking for stuff that we need and we even had people in charge for the things.

After we went back to school....

Next while in school we went making the food that we picked to make. We took the ingredients and had classmate's mothers help. We worked hard, all of us helped in the making of the food which is, chicken kebab.

Finally it was over, all of us in the group went into morning tea and ate. While we had the break the teachers went and prepared the delicious food. After in lunch it was prepared, then we ate. We had a fun day and a fun time, I hope if we ever do this again maybe my group could manage our time more wisely, but anyway it was great.

that was the end and I hope you enjoyed it Bye!!
