We decided that we&#8217;d like to have a go at making marrow chutney.\u00a0 This will teach us about preserving food to avoid food waste.<\/p>\n<p>We all helped at each stage of the preparation process.\u00a0 Some washed and chopped our marrow.\u00a0 Others added salt to draw out moisture from the marrow. They then mixed it all together.\u00a0 We left it for many hours for the salt to do its job.<\/p>\n<p>At every stage, hygiene was maintained, with hand-washing before and after and all equipment carefully washed after use.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow, we plan to proceed with stage two of our chutney making challenge, which will be another team effort.<\/p>\n<h1>Effective Contributors<\/h1>\n<div
