    Saturday, January 16, 2020                        From the Kitchen...
            6 p.m. – Oceanview Ballroom               2021 marks the year I embark on a long-awaited journey
                                                      to my final certification level of Certified Master Chef
                Limited to 50 attendees               (CMC) through the American Culinary Federation (ACF).
                                                      There are only 71 of them in the world, and there is a
                          Enjoy a Rum Tasting &       reason why… the test is one of the hardest in the world.
                           Heavy Hors d’oeuvres
                                                      The previous format for the CMC practical exam was
                                                      that of an eight-day rigorous test. It has since been
                       Followed by a viewing of the
                                                      restructured into two 4-day formats. 2021 is the first time
                              documentary             that this format will be implemented.
                            “The Real McCoy”
                        The Legend of Bill McCoy      First four-day focus is on:
                         and the Rum War at Sea       Freestyle, Nutrition, Global Cuisine (35 dishes), Baking and
                                                      Pastry.

                       Menu                           Second four-day format is on:
  Carved Ham Sliders w/Spiced Mustard & Sweet Rolls   Buffet Catering, Classical, European Cuisine (27 dishes), Market
                                                      Basket.
      Deviled Eggs with Chopped Celery Leaves
    Marinated Olive Cups with Sun-Dried Tomatoes      Within these tests are very specific competency
     Arugula Caprese with Basil Pistou Vinaigrette    requirements, precise schedules, and numerous
                                                      parameters to process. A test date was set up for
  Coconut Shrimp with Dark Rum-Pineapple Chutney
                                                      March 18-22 of 2021, but there were not enough
       Boursin Cheese Stuffed Mushroom Caps           candidates ready to take the exam. The next test date
      Smoked Salmon Canapes with Caper Dust           will likely be in October 2021 which allows me time
            Beef Barbacoa and Rice “Boat”             to research/study, perform practice runs with peers,
                                                      collaborate with CMC’s, etc – all in preparation for the
                                                      exam.
   Pineapple Upside Down with Maraschino Cherry

“magic” that happens in the bake

One specific means of incorporating air that I will focus on             Asparagus Tips, Foraged Mushrooms
here is whipping. I touched on this in my previous column
outlining creaming of butter but will expand on the theme.                                    Dessert:
Eggs (especially whites) and cream are the products most                         Raspberry Tiramisu
often whipped, producing such familiar items as meringue,         with Soaked Ladyfingers, French Macaron and Tuile
mousse, sponge cake, and “whipped cream” (technically
“Crème Chantilly”).                                                            $4 7 p er p erso n p lus ta x

The Method
While the endgame is similar, the techniques for whipping
egg whites vs. cream are opposed. With egg whites, the                The Club’s 48-Hour cancellation policy will be in effect.
                                                                             Seat i n g is l i m it e d t o 4 0 p e op l e

protein (albumen) in the egg is what traps air within the
foam. Sugar added about half-way through stabilizes the
meringue as it is whipped. Egg whites can grow to up
to seven times their volume when whipped but will not
achieve full volume if contaminated with any type of fat or
grease, including yolk remnant. Egg foams whip best at
slightly warmer than room temperature.

Conversely, cream must be kept cold and whipped with
cold equipment because it is the fat in cream that traps
air, thus creating the foam. Fat is most stable at colder
temperatures and will soften and melt as the temperature
increases. If making Crème Chantilly, combine cream with
powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and whip to desired                 Join us for Dinner at the Creek
stiffness. Take care to avoid over-whipping, which will
create a grainy-textured, separated product.

We are very optimistic that Golf will continue in a
great new upward trend. More people are being
introduced to this great game than ever before and
many are being brought back to the game. If you
are not involved, we hope that you will take the
opportunity to jump on board. Reconnect with the
people you have not played with in a while, take a
lesson, signup for a clinic or talk to one of our pros
about what golf activities might be available to you
that you have never considered.

Regarding tournaments, please mark your calendars
for these great events in January:

companies will come out with some great new lines
and be better able to meet delivery schedules than
they were in 2020. If you have anything that you
would like us to look for, please let us know.

Get a grip on your game. It is time again for our

Fitness: Workout with Walter
How Do I Get Started with Exercising?

This is a very simple and easy cardiovascular plan that will help you get started. The best thing about this cardio plan is
you control the level and pace for your workout. The goal behind this workout is to challenge yourself and improve your
heart rate without allowing your cardiovascular system to “Plateau”. Most people who do cardio will normally use the same
machines at the same pace, speed and time limit. This way your body begins to memorize the routine and how hard it needs
to work, this is what we call “Plateau”.

This is where Walter's Interval Cardiovascular Plan comes into effect. Just by following
the plan, you can adjust the time, speed and incline to whatever you choose that fits
your exercise level. The key point is making a change in your workout every (2) minutes
or it can be every (1) minute, to challenge your body for that length of time. Also,
instead of 15 minutes of the workout you can adjust the workout to (5,7,10) minutes,
whatever fits your exercise level. Remember the purpose of interval training is to
prevent your body from plateauing and to help improve your cardiovascular system.

If you have any questions about the plan, please email me:
wsam@hammockdunesclub.com.

Cardiovascular Training Workout - (1 - 2 times per week)
You may choose any order of the machines. Each workout is 15-minute interval
training for a total of 45 minutes of cardio.

Elliptical – Start at level (1) for the first 5 minutes, at the 5-minute mark, advance to
level (5) for 2 minutes then increase (1) level every 2 minutes up to 15 minutes.
As you increase, your level and MPH must match.
Example:          At 5 minutes – level (5), MPH – 5.0 (or more)
		                7 minutes – level (6), MPH – 6.0
		                9 minutes – level (7), MPH – 7.0
		                11 minutes – level (8), MPH – 8.0
		                13 minutes – level (9), MPH – 9.0 (ending at 15 minutes)

Cycling		       From 1 – 5 minutes, level (5), RPM 60 – 70
		              5 – 10 minutes, level (6), RPM 75– 85
		              10 – 15 minutes, level (7), RPM 90 – 105

Treadmill – Starting at an incline you will have a fast walk and a slow walk, working
your way down from the incline. Every 2 minutes, your speed and incline
will change. (Same routine can be done WITHOUT incline).
		              1st minute – Incline – (7) speed 3.7
		              3rd minute – Incline - (6) speed 3.2
		              5th minute – Incline - (5) speed 3.7
		              7th minute - Incline - (4) speed 3.2
		              9th minute - Incline - (3) speed 3.7
		              11th minute - Incline - (2) speed 3.2
		              13th minute – Incline - (1) speed 3.7
		              15th minute - Cool down, speed 2.5 for (2) minutes

		CONGRATULATIONS!!

News & Notes
President's Letter
Dear Members,

After almost four years of service on your Board of Governors with two years as President, this will be my last message,
therefore I’d like to review some of our Board’s goals and accomplishments.

To quote Mike Tyson, the boxer, “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth”. Covid was our punch and
certainly not anticipated. The pandemic affected all of us personally and operationally as a Club. Jesse Thorpe, our GM
and COO, together with a dedicated staff did an incredible job of navigating us through these difficult times. Deci-
sions had to be made quickly just to keep us open. Although not always popular these decisions were made with the
total support of the Board, the priority being the health and safety of all Members and staff. Our Club became a main
source for grocery shopping, takeout meals, home workout videos, and golf rounds hit an all-time high. As proof that
our Members only drink when they are alone or with someone, off-premises wine sales skyrocketed. Let’s hope Covid
will soon be a thing of the past.

When I became President two years ago a major goal was to grow our Membership by improving the services and
amenities offered for our current Members and to develop a Membership product to attract new Members. Thanks to
the efforts of prior Boards and the decisions approved by our Membership the table was set for success. The Clubhouse
renovations were nearing completion providing first class facilities for dining, fitness, and other inside activities. Jesse
and his Management team went above and beyond to complete the package by developing the food quality, service
levels, fitness programs and amenities that provide the experiences we all enjoy today.

Where are we now? For the first time in over 12 years, we achieved a growth in Membership. In 2019 we sold 13 new
Memberships. In 2020 we project 52 new sales and 15 Transfers for a total of 67 new Members joining our Club. This
brings us back to our Membership levels of 2015. As a result of this success and your continued support, our Club is
financially sound and poised to meet your future needs and expectations.

The Club will face challenges and hopefully one of those will be dealing with growing pains. The new Board is strong
and ready to meet whatever our future has in store.

It has been a privilege to serve as President and to the many Members who reached out and offered your support, I
thank you for making it an enjoyable experience.

Have a Happy Holiday Season and all the best for a HEALTHY New Year.

Bob Drab • President, Hammock Dunes Club
