What are the specialties of chefs? I want to learn to be a chef, but I don't know what major suits me, so it is necessary to choose a good chef major. Below, Xuzhou New Oriental cooking school will introduce the main classification and introduction of the current chef major.
Introduction to the professional division of chefs:
Chefs can be divided into Chinese chefs, western chefs and western chefs according to the major cooking styles.
Chefs, according to the three major cuisines in the world, can be divided into Chinese cuisine chefs, French cuisine chefs and Turkish cuisine chefs.
Specific to the school, because of the different training objectives, the school's chef major will not be called Chinese chef major, western pastry chef major, etc. At the same time, because each school offers different types of chef majors, the chef majors in each school are very different.
For example, the chef major offered by Xuzhou New Oriental cooking school: the chef major of Chinese food includes Jinling chef major and chef elite major; There are classic West Point majors, European West Point store manager majors, etc. Chefs of western food include chefs of western food and elites of western food.
