food prep
this now my second week in the kitchen and i am enjoying it a lot we are learning so much in such a short time !! we are now cooking like crazy and becoming young chefs in the making !!,in these last two weeks i have seen what many people never see at all i have seen a head chef go crazy and i have seen a whole kitchen function under pressure , i have now worked in the hot kitchen and cold kitchen and in all areas of the kitchen , we have been busy and have been thought how to cook in a time that is not possible at home overall though we are not real chefs we get treated like one and we have been thought how to function as one and how the kitchen can treat you , it is a great experience so far i am enjoying the food and what we had been taught , i never thought i would be able to cook more then pasta but now i can !! this is great fun and must say I'm getting fatter by the day with all the food i eat on a daily basis !!

skills in food prep
kitchen!!!!!!!!!!! time !! i am now in my second week in the kitchen were i am doing my basic skills this has been great fun so far we did our knife skills and work in the kitchen will the help of our head chef and staff we will be able to cook more then just an egg , we have been given tasks to do and collect 25 recipes.
in these last two weeks we have been cooking things from meat to a egg that has been poached ,we are 3 students at the moment so we each get put into a section such as cold kitchen were we have to prepare salads , do breakfasts etc we learn a great deal in the kitchen as we will need to cook for guests one day when working at a lodge , one thing that has really made me smile is the fact we learn things in the kitchen no other kid learns from his mom witch is great .
we also have a great pressure on us as the kitchen does get busy and we need to be able to handle the pressure at all times .
but so far the kitchen is great fun and we love learning about food and what we can do with it ,
our main concern at this stage is so keep up the hard work and keep our customers happy.
