The female chef originated from the ancient court of China, which refers to the female chef in charge of royal dishes. The position of female chef is extremely lofty, and she is a distinguished food supplier for the emperor and concubines in the harem. Female chefs must have superb cooking skills and superb knife skills to ensure the health and food enjoyment of the emperor and the concubines in the harem. The position of female chef has also been widely developed and passed down in hotels and restaurants at all times and in all countries.

The responsibility of the female chef is not only to cook delicious food, but also to prepare a healthy diet with the court doctors according to the physical condition and taste of the emperor and the concubines in the harem. The female chef should copy and set the dishes according to the rules of court etiquette, so as to ensure that every dish is exquisite and bring both visual and taste enjoyment to the emperor and the concubines in the harem. These important responsibilities make female chefs a respected profession.

With the development of society and people's needs, the career of female chef has developed into a modern form. Female chefs no longer only serve the royal family, but undertake the production and innovation of global cuisine in various catering enterprises and star-rated hotels. They plan recipes, choose ingredients, improve tastes, bring forth new ideas, and constantly learn and explore new food ideas, showing women's unique talent and creativity in the field of cooking.
