/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I'm trying to figure out what to do with my life and am passionate and would like to think talented with cooking/baking but have no exposure to the actual industry
What was your starting point? Did you go to a college or enter an apprenticeship? How long did it take to become an actual chef?
What is the salary like and how variable is it?
Do your own your own restaurant?

Have an opportunity to escape neetdom and become an apprentice chef, is it as bad as everyone says it is? Can someone give me a good idea of the industry, apprenticeship and everything

>unitaskers do the things that knives do faster
Only if you have super-n00b knife skills

People who like mayo are cancer pleb scum that have no taste.
Only the few people with refined taste like condiments like relish and honey mustard

As a complete beginner what are the most must-learn foods I should know how to cook?

I’m also trying to impress girls with my cooking so any recipe recommendations would be appreciated.

I'm looking to get into the steak business. Where do I start?

I don't have a grill, only a stove/oven and cast iron/stainless steel pans.

What is that bread thing... I've been looking for one, but don't know exactly what to look for. Can someone give me any ideas?

Is it a dutch oven? Cast iron? I've seen really light weight ones, but for some reason, I have the feeling it needs to be heavy duty.

What the fuck is the point in bacon? I just sliced the dehydrated parts of a steak that I dry aged for a week into paper thin slices. Fried it in a pan like bacon.

It kind of reminded me of pan frying pastrami, and it had a very similar texture. But the thing that shocked me was how remarkably close to bacon it tasted. Texture wasn't far off, but clearly there is less fat.

So, maybe I will convert to Judaism after all.

It's only genius if:
1)Replication is possible
2)Foundation of previous/past genius thought is apparent. (Is it inspired by French culture? Japanese? Or the toilet.)

Have you ever been to a restaurant and ate food that was so good you thought to yourself "man, I'd never able to cook this"? If so, what was the dish?

You can shoot yourself right after the meal. It's not like restaurants check for guns. You won't have to pay for the meal.

Have you ever tried this recipe? And is it any good?
