More lectures on food safety, including an overview of the HACCP (that stands for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point and is pronounced "hassip," if you want to show off at parties) system. HACCP is a way of identifying which points in the flow of food leave the food most at risk of contamination, and setting out procedures to minimize this danger.Chef Vic asked us to bring our own tasting spoons. At this point my classmate Gelo piped up, "Does it have to be a French tasting spoon?" whereupon we learned that the French were the inventors of this Hydra of silverware, just like they came up with many other desirable things - kisses, leaves, braids and bread.
