If you want to learn to be a chef, you must know how to knife, turn over the pan, correctly identify and master the oil temperature, feed accurately and timely, master the temperature, thicken, cook in time, load the plate and so on.

In the chef industry, knife skills, spoon skills, paste-pumping and chopping are generally regarded as the essential basic skills for chefs to get started, and in the people engaged in the cooking industry, the basic skills of cooking are all regarded as compulsory courses, and they are always unremitting.

At the same time, learning chef needs certain cultural knowledge, certain endurance and judgment ability. Learning chef cooking can apply for the relevant cooking school or go directly to the catering service place with the chef.

What you need to learn from a chef is a lot of practice, constant summary, and persistent long-term practice. Learning to be a chef is a science. As long as you work hard, you can learn a craft in a year or two.

Basic skills of chefs

1, knife skill is a key part of cooking, and you need to practice frequently to master it skillfully. How to hold the knife and how to stand, are all exquisite, not careless, otherwise, the processed dishes will not meet the requirements of finished products.

2, spoon work is very important, the so-called spoon work is the spoon turning action used when cooking dishes. Spoon skills include pushing, pulling, turning, jumping and turning according to the strength and direction of the processed dishes. Whether a dish can be recognized by diners can be said to be a spoonful of life and death. Whether you can master the skill of spoon flexibly and make delicious dishes is by no means a day's work.

3. Pastry is a key part of cooking. The pastry here is not the usual steamed buns and dumplings. Pastry making requires not only delicious food but also beautiful appearance. The preparation of pastry shape, the time control of steaming, baking and frying, etc. If possible, we should further learn how to make cakes, make western cakes and squeeze various cream decorations.

1, the school learned more than cooking (various cooking methods are not explained), sugar art, sculpture, dough modeling, fruit painting, plate decoration and so on.

Some people must say that it is useless to learn these basics, but the basic skills of being a chef are very important. You can't say that you can make money by this, but you can't even learn the basics. How can employers use you? In fact, the main thing I want to say is that with so much contact at school, maybe which skill is your strong point. Being more capable than others can make you develop longer in the future. You can't be exposed to so much in a hotel.

2. The theoretical knowledge of school learning is useful (really useful): cost accounting, raw material knowledge, process knowledge, art, nutrition, menu design, etc.

Cost accounting, if you want to start a business after a few years, you must understand. Nutrition, with the improvement of living conditions, everyone not only pays attention to delicious food, but also eats nutritious and healthy food. There will be great room for development in this field. Menu design is really difficult for you to learn in a hotel. Once you are promoted to the level of chef, the importance of menu design is highlighted. If you have special guests, you can't open the menu without understanding these things, and you don't understand that the tastes of foods can't conflict.

For chefs, the beauty is talent, and what is amazing is that the dishes they make are art!

3. There are many people in the school who are willing to teach you, but there are fewer hotels.

The teacher's duty is to teach students knowledge, while the hotel master's duty is to do his own work well. You ask the teacher any questions, as long as he knows, he will not tell you; Hotel master, it depends on whether what you ask is important or not, and how your relationship with him is. I'm afraid it's not good to teach you something casually. The hotel master just teaches you something that many people know, so that you can help him. His work can be easy and labor-saving. Those good recipes and powerful skills may not teach you everything. Otherwise, teach the disciples and starve the master?
