               What I Need to Know
       Hello learner. This module covers the knowledge, skills, and attitudes
of learners required to support food processing work. The focus of this module
could be used in many different learnings on different food processing tools,
equipment, utensils, and instrument. It helps you understand the importance
of each tool, equipment, and utensil, used in food processing. The language
used in this module recognizes the diverse vocabulary in the field of food
production. The lessons are arranged to follow the standard sequence directed
to the achievement of two or more learning objectives as shown below:

                What I Know
       Hey, what’s up! I know that you are excited to learn how to prepare
processed food. But are you sure you are already familiar with the different
kitchen tools, equipment, and utensils you need to get this activity going?
Well, let’s see what you already know about food processing tools, equipment,
and utensils and their uses by accomplishing the task that follows.
      Let’s check on your familiarity with the activities. The result of this pre-
assessment will determine your prior knowledge of food processing tools,
equipment, and utensils. Let’s start!
How well do you know the items that can be found in your kitchen? Match
up the kitchen tools, equipment, and utensils with the right picture. Write
your answer in your activity notebook.

Defects in Tools, Equipment, and Instruments in Food (Fish) Processing
       The defects in tools, utensils, equipment, and instruments can cause
serious and painful injuries to those who will use them. The food processing
operation will be also affected. So, before any tool, utensils, and equipment is
used, it must be the first to be checked to make sure that it is in good
condition and functional. It will guarantee that all their parts are intact and
that no part is defective or missing. This will also assure the wirings and
electrical plugs are not damage or defective and will not cause problems with
electrocution, short circuits, or any form of accident. Discard those that are
defective or do something to repair immediately the damaged tools, utensils,
or equipment to avoid any problems. Broken or incomplete tools must not be
used but placed in a special place for them to repair. Continuous maintenance
on the use of tools, utensils, and equipment must be practiced and checked
every after each use based on the maintenance schedule for every piece of
equipment.
         1.   Machine temperature
         2.   Hydraulic fluid
         3.   Wear and surface condition
         4.   Crack

         6.   Vibration
         7.   Corrosion
         8.   Electric insulation
      Doing this will prevent the use of inappropriate devices as well as the
occurrence of accidents due to the use of faulty or defective tools, equipment,
and utensils.

condition of equipment/machines can be accurately made as to serviceable,
repairable, and defective.
      The use of appropriate equipment, tools, and utensils in top condition
is of primary importance in the production of good food. Standardized
equipment, a variety of the right kitchen tools, utensils, and appliances all
contribute to the production of processed food with excellent quality.

3. To ensure the safe use of hand tools, inspect them first before using them.
5. If there are effective tools, equipment, and utensils in the laboratory report
    it immediately to the in-charge person.
I'm proud of the way you worked today. I think you are already familiar with
the various food processing tools, utensils, and equipment and their uses. I
hope you are also well-oriented about their defects and proper procedure in
reporting it
     Let us now test what you have learned from all the activities you did by
answering the questions that follow.
1. What are the different tools, utensils, and equipment used in different food
   processing methods?
                                       13
3. If there is a defective tool, equipment, and utensil in your kitchen what is
   the best thing to do?
4. Why do we need to inspect and check first the tools, equipment, and
   utensils before using them?
What I Can Do
      Since you are now well-equipped with food processing tools, utensils,
and equipment and their uses, let proceed now to the next exciting activity.
Activity 1.4: Take A Pic
Directions: Take a picture of any food processing tools, utensils, or
equipment that can be found in your kitchen. Combine and name all the tools,
utensils, and equipment according to the food processing method. You can
choose only 3 methods. Post these on your class group chat or send them to
the messenger account of your teacher. In case you don’t have internet access,
you may paste them into your activity notebook.
