can you recommend a super cheap, super quick and super healthy recipe?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 82 points83 points84 points 1 year ago
for really cheap, easy and healthy there is nothing better then going to a local farmers market and finding some vegetables you really like. it's also nice to know you are using local stuff. here's something quick off the top of my head.
any of these following veggies is great. use all or whichever you can get your hands on. chop all into bite sixe pieces.
1 carrot 1/4c broccoli 1/4c cauliflower 1 small onion 1 sweet red pepper 1/4c fava beans or english peas 2 cloves garlic minced 1/4c zuchini
for proteins you can use any lean meat.
1/4 lb chicken breast or 1/4 lb lean beef or 1/4 lb lean pork or 1/4 lb bay scallops or 1/4 lb calamari
things you can add include 1. spices like cumin or fennel or coriander seed or hot pepper powder like espelette or aleppo or korean chili flake 2. fine herbs like parsley, chives, dill, chervil 3. lemon/lime juice or red wine vin or sherry vin(acidity helps balance flavors) 4. nuts can add a lot to a dish. try peanuts, pine nuts, almonds 5. dont be afraid of cooking savory food with fruit. pineapple, plums, peaches, apples, all cook well if you dont cook the shit out of them. 6. soy sauce, sirracha, hot sauce, sesame oil
see what you have in your cupboard and don't be afraid to try something new.
remember to re-season your food as you go. you should only need a couple more minutes of cooking to finish the meat and veggies.
a common mistake people make at home cooking is overcooking protein and underseasoning their food.
this is as healthy and nutritious and quick as you can get. all in all this should take you 10-15 minutes.
if you want, you can chop a bunch of meat and veggies a couple days in advance and keep them in seperate containers. then all you gotta do is throw the stuff together anytime you are hungry.
hope this helps

Why are you steaming the meat after you dry cooked it?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 12 points13 points14 points 1 year ago
don't you guys wanna know any of the dirty little secrets? i won't divulge them though unless they are specifically asked.
[–]gandhikahn 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
what if anything do you cook ahead of time and freeze?
it's a michelin star restaurant i run. so nothing. i would feel guilty if i did that and charged 100$ a meal.
[–]gandhikahn 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
ever serve anything you were embarrassed by?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
yes. in fine dining all dished to a table must go out together. one person can not be eating while the others are. there have been times when 1 dish is overcooked, but i can't hold it back and let the other dished at the table get cold especially if its a 10 top. so i was embarassed to send it but there is no choice there. i cant refire it and let the rest of the food die. if its a 2 top its not as big a deal cause i will just fire both dishes again.
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
what would you do with the other good one?
give it away to another table and say its with my compliments. if im really pissed off and busy at that point i'll just have a runner get it out of my sight cause looking at it will just make me angrier.
[–]PeterMus 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
The cooks where I work will occasionally slam it in the trash while I cry out NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then start whistling taps. I barely saved a small pizza last week, delicious.
[–]nbrown7 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Worst thing about being a runner is watching edible food go in the trash...I would take scraps every night I could.
[–]alband 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Whenever top-class kitchens are portrayed on TV, they seem very aggressive and confrontational - think Gordon Ramsay. Is it really like this? I know there must be a lot of pressure during a busy shift, but do you really give serious bollockings to junior staff for getting stuff wrong?
[–]skarface6 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago

What is your opinon of gordon ramsay?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 8 points9 points10 points 1 year ago
my friend used to work with him personally. she hates him and tells me what a douch he is. i have no reason to doubt her seeing as that was my opinion of him before she told me.
[–]fazon 8 points9 points10 points 1 year ago
IMO, he doesn't seem like a douche. I think TV shows just portray him as one because it sells. If you look at some of his earlier shows he seems nice/likeable.
[–]meh-aidez 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
he's very friendly on umm....not hells kitchen, his other show...not kitchen nightmares....
[–]mjsolaro 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
F word? His travel show? The reality tv show about his kitchens?
Christ almighty that guy does a lot of tv.
[–]whatdoisaynow 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
That's strange, a friend of mine worked for him too (this was in London mind you) and found him charming and very well respected by his staff. In Britain at least, he seems to be regarded as a good employer.
[–]georgekeele 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
I think that might depend on the staff. There's a chance Michelin Man's friend was a lazy wench.
[–]fubsycat 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
There's chef's with 3 stars that have quiet well run kitchens and chefs with 3 that are douches and whose behaviour would mortify customers... I think he sets a really bad example for how to treat your fellow kitchen staff to a lot of young people wanting to get into the industry. Though, FOX editing and image consultants have a lot to do with how he's presented now.
[–]CaptnAhab 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
Do you make more or less than the wait staff? Do you feel any resentment about not being included in sharing tips?
My friend started his career as a cook and has been disheartened that he has to work many more hours for comparable or less pay than the waiters who receive ample tips. His argument is that a large reason for customers tipping is the quality of the food that he is responsible for, yet he doesn't get to share in the benefits. Your thoughts on the matter?
until you get to a sous chef or chef de cuisine or exec chef level you will make less. but you don't cook to get rich. you can't get discouraged or it eats you up. best to know that when you reach the pinnacle of your profession you will make much more then the waitstaff. in the beginning you must learn to suffer financially a little. un unwritten rule in kitchens is that front of the house (waitstaff, bartenders, busboys) dont talk about what they make with back of the house (cooks, chefs, dishwashers).
i scraped by on a really bad wage the first 5 years cooking.
[–]countboros 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
Are cook and chef different positions?
a chef is generally a manager. sous chef, chef de cuisine, or exec chef. everyone else is usually considered a cook.
[–]fazon 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
What's a chef de cusine
[–]helloooochilren[S] 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
if a restaurant is very big he is just under the exec chef. usually its just a term for someone that runs the restaurant because the exec chef is not there enough.
[–]tinutinu 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
you can't get discouraged or it eats you up.
Heh.
[–]Just-my-2c 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
all places i ever worked (never in the USA tho), shared tips with the kitchen...
never in the u.s. its actually illegal because of a servers lower wage per hour. at least in new york, tips can only be shared with hourly working servers. never managers who are on salary or with back of the house.
[–]shadow112090 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
Worst customer. Go.
[–]helloooochilren[S] 23 points24 points25 points 1 year ago
honestly? i hate special order people. if you don't like the food as it is made then why come to my restaurant? an allergy is one thing but if you don't like something on a dish don't order it or go something else. every component of a dish is carefully thought out and tested and has a reason for being on a dish.
oh and the guy that sends back the well done meat that is already a hockey puck. i'm sorry if your well done which is totally gray throughout is a little juicy still. if it comes back more then once i will throw it in the fryer and destroy it.
[–]Just-my-2c 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
good for you!
Honestly, how can people ever order well done, except when they don´t trust that the kitchen (and/or meat) is clean and fresh...
[–]countboros 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
Why do you use ´ instead of '? Hell, I don't even know how to make ´, but it's a single-close-quote, and you want to use an apostrophe.
[–]helloooochilren[S] 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
how the hell did you notice that????
its not hard...
[–]Just-my-2c 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
i know, i hate it as well... do you have the alt code for '??? I´m on a spanish keyboard and i´ve tried it all, but still can´t find the mofo-ing apostrophe... even asciitable isn´t much of a help :(
[–]rasl 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
about allergies (i'm allergic to nuts for instance), how hard is it to change a dish to accommodate them - especially if you order a tasting menu?

[–]helloooochilren[S] 34 points35 points36 points 1 year ago
chain restaurants like chilis and fridays. there is no love in that food. its microwaved or boil in bag shit. most comes frozen and its not even that much cheaper then most independent restaurants. its not worth saving the 10$ to feed the industrial mega corps running those places. support your independent restaurants that care about the food more and hopefully cook with passion and love.
[–]MuddieMaeSuggins 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
its not even that much cheaper then most independent restaurants.
Shit, where I live it's often more expensive.

Speaking of, what do you think of sous-vide cooking?
[–]battlepleasesyoucrom 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
I'm a middling amateur who likes cooking for himself and his friends, and I'd really appreciate some advice on how to improve. I know some techniques, kinda know how to use my good chef's knife, have a pretty good idea of some flavors that go well together, have access to a few books on basic techniques (The Art of Simple Food, On Food and Cooking, and Cooking by Hand), know how to handle cast iron, etc.,
Lastly, some general questions/comments.
[–]brokenspoke 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
Have any nights that stick out in your mind as "worst night ever"?
(Related) Were you in a kitchen during the big blackout in 2003? Does a restaurant even try to keep up dinner service when something like that happens?
How did you get started? Did you fall into this line of work, or was it something you had always desired?
Do you love cast iron skillets as much as I do?
this past valentines day weekend the service went so badly i broke down and cried for 15 minutes after service in my office.
i have worked through a service with no power. lots of candles and some emergency lights.
i am an ivy league dropout who left to cook. i had always loved cooking even as a child.
yes, yes, yes.
[–]juandiablo 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago

[–]cementseller 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
How do you keep pasta fresh all day? Do you have a giant vat of almost cooked pasta and just finish cooking it on an order by order basis?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
well for dry pasta you can cook it 75% and finish cooking on the fire. for fresh pasta like ravioli i like to keep it frozen. if you don't freeze fresh past it will stick together and turn very gummy.
[–]fazon 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Frozen pasta? What kind of michelin chef would serve frozen pasta?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 15 points16 points17 points 1 year ago
if it is hand made pasta. it's the only way you can keep it from sticking together and getting gummy. freezing is not a dirty word. just using it for the right things.
[–][deleted] 1 year ago

[–]fazon 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
no actually I wasn't, I was serious. When you go to a restaurant and pay $50 a plate, you don't expect something frozen. He cleared it up though.
[–]fazon 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Can you tell us what restaurant you work at?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
sorry no. there are only 40 or so michelin restaurants in nyc. i need my privacy.
[–]gimpwiz 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
What food undergoes the highest (percent or total) markup from the cost of base ingredients plus your time to the cost the customer pays? What food gets the smallest?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
generally soups and salads have a very high markup. that and all beverages. the least profit is usually from high end items like lamb, veal, and expensive fish like tuna. even if i charge more for those items i'm only doing so so i don't lose money on it.
[–]alettuce 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
I'm a vegetarian and I notice this when I eat at fine dining restaurants. Usually I'm there so my companion can have really good fish or meat, but I feel I'm paying an arm and a leg for something I could easily make for myself at home. Suggestions?
[–]vegascoaster 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Whats the worst health violation you've seen / committed? As in food drops on floor, spit in food (or other bodily fluids) etc. I've heard somewhere that butter that isn't used from some tables gets pooled back together with the butter in the back and served to other tables later on.
How much do you make on a given dish? It seems like the profit margins on the food itself would be rather high considering the ingredients aren't always that expensive or rare.
Are there any dishes where the price is raised just because people think it should be expensive?
i worked for a chef that served pork as veal to a clientele that had a lot of jews. this is probably the worst thing i've seen.
as for profit margin, this is a really common misconception. people think cause i charge 38$ for a dish and the ingredients cost 10$ i'm making a killing. not so. i probably make 3$-5$ on the dish. you have to think of overhead. insurance, cooks, rent, linens, flowers, window washer, book keeper, accountant, exterminator, accountant, repairs, etc. the cost of running a restaurant are astronomical especially in nyc. typically a restaurants food cost is 23%-35%. that means for every 1$ a customer spends the ingredients cost $.23-$.35. but the other costs for operating add up quickly. you must remember when you go to a restaurant you are not just paying for the food. you are paying for the experience as a whole.
How often do you need the exterminator?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 22 points23 points24 points 1 year ago
you don't call him when you need him. he automatically comes 2 times a week. prevention before anything happens is the key.
[–]vegascoaster 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I fully understand those costs, I guess my question was more how much of the total cost of the dish is the food itself.
[–]skunkops 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
I have a horrible habit of overcooking meat. I watch the temperature and cooking times but it always ends up being more cooked than I would like. Tips?
you are probably not accounting for carryover time and resting. when you cook meat you are infusing heat into it from the outside in. this heat pushes water/moisture towards the center as it cooks. now lets say i have a 14 oz. rib eye i want med rare. i am always thinking of cooking it under then letting it rest for 4-5 minutes. this resting period is important. just cause the meat is taken off the heat does not mean it has stopped cooking. the risidual heat from the outside layers has to go somewhere. some of it is let off as radient heat into the air directly and some of it travels towards the center of the meat while it rests. this resting period is important for keeping it juicy. as the meat rests the juices have been pushed to the center. as the heat in the meat dissapates it allows the moisture to also dissapate and go back into the outer parts of the meat. this is why if you cook a steak and cut it right away juices will flow out like crazy. if you wait 4-5 minutes the juices have resettled and will not pour out so much. of couse the bigger the cut of meat the longer you rest it. for a roast you can let it sit for 30 minutes with a little foil on top and it will still be hot.
for fish its the same but fish tends to carry over more. every second between the time the fish comes out of the pan and you start to eat it, it is still cooking.
as for the temps, i don't use a thermometer. heres my little protip.
go to a kitchen supply store and buy a cake-tester. its nothing more then a metal wire with a plastic handle and costs $.99.
as you cook your steak you can stick the tester into the centermost part of the meat. then you pull it out and touch where it was in contact with the center of the meat to either your upper or bottom lip. these areas sense minute temp changes very quickly.
for med rare i want the tester to feel just over room temp. i then pull the meat off and let it rest for 4-5 minutes. you should have perfect med rare. med would be slightly warm, and rare would be room temp or less. if you eat it med well or well done i dont want to talk to you anymore.
[–]Slagathor91 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Why do you not like medium well and well done? I definitely prefer medium to medium well, but I can definitely stomach and enjoy a medium well steak. I'm not a connoisseur or anything, but what don't I know?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 11 points12 points13 points 1 year ago
you are destroying all the juicy flavor when you cook it past medium imo.
[–]skunkops 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Hmm. While I am resting the meat you may be right in that I'm not accounting for that continual cooking after the pan.
Also, question regarding fish: My brother, who I live with and cook for every now and then, is allergic to fish. Has been his whole life. So I have very little experience with cooking homemade fish dishes. Any suggestions for when he's not around?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
most important? fine a really good fishmonger. fish is all about freshness. go to a fish place and ask questions. ask where the fish comes from. if it's farm raised or wild. if its a sustainable fish. if they can't answer that then go somewhere else.
besides that just dont overcook fish. most fish doesn't have enough internal fat to keep it from getting dry quickly.
So my roommate has discovered recently that he is allergic to corn in all it's many forms. How would you make him Nachos? Poor guy used to love em.
[–]helloooochilren[S] 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago*
that ones easy. wheat flour tortillas. same ones you use for soft tacos. they are usually made with only wheat flour. fry those up and add all the normal nacho stuff. *edit spelling
[–]plaiddest 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
does it make him cough? i've never met anyone else with a corn allergy
[–]schoofer 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
We need some credentials/proof.
I was a chef while I was in college at two different universities. Worked my way from prep to line cook to events to running a 5-course dinner.
We just got through with another guy claiming to have a two-star michelin restaurant in NY who was lying and actually from Boston and this is really, really suspect, too.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
I am pretty sure that this one is bullshit as well. Have just posted a "cheffy" question to see.
[–]schoofer 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
It's a shame that this one turned out to be bullshit, too.
I'd make an AMA but I don't think anyone cares to ask questions of a used-to-be-chef-who-got-burned-out who never worked at a Michelin-quality restaurant.
I did work at a 1 star restaurant, but many years ago. I do know a few things about food, enough to know that this is a total crock of shit.
The first michelin review in the states was 2005 in NY, so must have been after that...
That's about the same time I was cheffing (2003-2008).
Regardless, yeah, this is a crock of shit. What chef in their right mind wouldn't use a therm? You do it for food safety, more than anything.
In addition to having been a chef, I am still food safety management certified, as would be any executive chef.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I live in the UK, it was years ago and I was a very lowly member of staff. I did cook professionally for a few years after that though including as head chef, though no where near the Michelin level. It was after my colleagues started to rack up the lines of charlie at the last place I worked that I realised I wanted to do something else. I actually think I am a much better cook these days, despite not having worked in a professional kitchen for years.
You are right about the thermometer, it's ridiculous to suggest that any chef worth his salt wouldn't use one. I use one at home for god's sake.
[–]spinlock 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
What do you think of sous vid? I've never tried it but I'm intrigued.
it tastes fabulous but i have never done it myself properly. the real equipment is very expensive and it's not in my budget right now. but it makes thigs taste pretty fuckin good. cooking slowly in its own juices to exact temp.
There is no way that a michelin starred joint doesn't have a sous vide bath.
A proper answer would have been to decry the homegenity that sous vide has introduced into high end dining and suggest that, like Thomas Keller, you get imaginative with controlled temperature baths, use them for resting meat etc.
Fraud.
[–]spinlock 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I've actually heard that you can get the same results with a ziplock bag, a cooler, and hot water. I've never tried it but I've got those things around the house. why not.
[–]lincolnquirk 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
You can! I do it regularly. I buy good filet mignon from the meat market down the street. You really need a thermometer as well.
Recipe --
I highly recommend Bearnaise sauce to go along with this, which is a little more involved and outside the scope of this comment.
[–]protip333 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
1, best bib-gourmand+ quality main dish you would make for $10 worth of ingredients, including spices if possible.
must have protein; exclude asian cuisine
(saw your cheap and quick recipe, but that's just stir-fry)
2, if you were given only 1 way to make chicken breasts for the rest of your life, how would you make it.
wow....i guess i have to think about #1. i have not bought food in a market in so long. i buy everything wholesale for the restaurant so i have no idea on pricing for groceries.
[–]xxpor 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
that sounds fucking delicous
[–]charcharbinks 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
That sounds good. How do you "brine" something? Just put it in salt water for a day?
[–]Esquire99 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Your opinion on the best:
sad thing is i don't eat out very often.......no time. but i'll do my best.
also take into account that one of the perks of being a chef in a well known restaurant is that i know someone or know someone who knows someone in almost all the top restaurants. so when i go out to eat at a nice place usually they know where i work and give me pretty good service.
[–]Esquire99 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
As to 2, Is Lugar's that much better than say Wolfgangs or Strip House as to justify the trek to BK and getting nearly $200 in cash (I hate cash)? I love, love, love steak and if it's worth the trouble I'll go.
if you have never been you have to go at least once if you are a real new yorker. the tables are sticky, the waiters are surley, but its a real part of old new york that might not be there forever. i have not been there in a long time though so who knows how it is now.....
[–]emkat 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Who deserves credit for the michelin star? Can you call it your michelin star?
someone else earned the star. but i maintained it for over a year.
Can chefs earn stars separate from the restaurant?
no. the star is for the restaurant, not the chef.
[–]emkat 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Oh, so it doesn't have the star anymore?
no, it still does. but we haven't lost it since i've been there which is my biggest fear.
How often are fancy restaurants like this expected to change their menus?
at least seasonally. i make 4 major changes a year with lots of minor changes.
[–]skunkops 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Where do you get your home knifes and cookware from?
heh heh, funny but i don't cook at home since i am single. i find no joy in cooking for myself, only for others. i grab a sandwich on my way home from the deli usually for dinner. if you want nice stuff for home though all-clad is the standard for cookware. its very expensive (like 100$ for 1 pan) but will last you the rest of your life. that and a good cast iron skillet can not be used enough. it will last your life and your grandchildrens lives. i have 10+ knives for work. brands include global, mac, wusthof, shun, misono. i prefer japanese knives over german or french.
[–]bippodotta 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Wait a minute: you eat deli sandwiches? That's it?
What type?
If you have two specials on the board, is one to get rid of non-fresh produce and the other to try out a new dish?
those are usually the 2 distinct possibilities. or once in a while it's just cause im bored and want to play and create. or sometimes cause i find something new and interesting in the market or from my fish guy that i wanna put on a dish.
[–]skarface6 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
How does buying from the market and your fish guy work? Is it like that movie Ratatouille? How realistic is that movie? Do you have talking mice in your kitchen or just the regular kind?
[–]mjsolaro 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Have you considered going on a tv show like Chopped or Iron Chef to increase your level of exposure?
[–]briarios 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I realize the Michelin star is important for business, but isn't that just because it sends the tourists and business drones to your place? Do you really believe the star represents the top restaurants in NYC? If so, why?
I've eaten at many of the Michelin ranked restaurants in NYC, and have come to the conclusion that the ranking is far from a guarantee in terms of food quality (and even less in terms of atmosphere). Jean Georges, Le Bernadin, and SHO Shawn Hergatt in particular are abominations – I've eaten better food and had a more pleasant experience from street vendors in South Asia. Le Bernardin made someone at my table sick with bad Langustino, and the awkward, stiff service put everyone at my table on edge. I guess it's to be expected, but the Michelin criteria seems to grossly favor an extremely buttery French palate. Most of the rest of the Michelin restaurants in NYC that I've been to (e.g., Del Posto, Gramercy Tavern, Wallsé), are solid but quite far IMO from being the best of NYC. Then there is a place like Public, which is like WTF?
[–]babynoob 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
What do you do in this situation?
A guest orders an entree and eats more than half of it. The guest complains that the food was unsatisfactory i.e. tastes bad, or the food is off. When, in fact, there is nothing wrong with anything on the dish. The entree is returned to you by one of the servers at which point the server kindly explains the situation to you. After an examination of the food you find that there is nothing wrong with the dish. What do you do?
What's your favorite sandwich?
Which of the TV chef personalities, past or present, do you respect and or think are very good?
[–]nick31 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago*
Not sure if you're still answering questions, but:
What do you/your waitstaff think of tables that do not order wine?
What do you think of Anthony Bourdain?
What do you think of OpenTable.com for making reservations?
edit: I agree with you about le Bernardin being the best in nyc.
edit2: My family and I walked out of L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon, so hopefully that's not it :).

i'm a huge fan of top chef. have you considered being part of the show? or know anyone that was part of the show?
i have a close relationship with one of the people that judges on top chef sometimes, iron chef, and next iron chef. but a friend said something to me a while back. "people go on that show to get a job like you already have." i knew someone that said they could get me on iron chef if i wanted it but i am too camera shy.
[–]harmon25 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
What do you think of the show Top Chef? All of the contestants seem to make very fine cuisine, which seems similar to the restaurant you are describing. Also, what do you think of the judges critiques?
i liked the first 2 seasons. now it's way too scripted like most reality shows. so i think its total shit now. i can't really give an opinion cause i havn't seen an episode of it in years.
How do you know its scripted if you haven't seen it in years?
i watched a little of seasons 3-4 and i just found it to be so contrived and unrealistic.
That's awesome. There are only 3 stars on the michelin scale right? and getting even 1 star is fucking awesome.
OK next question, when you say to take the protein off of the heat, where do you put it? just on a plate to the side?
THX
yeah. if you can keep it somewhere slightly warm like a 150 degree oven it would be good. if you cant then you can loosley wrap the plate it is on in tinfoil.

I am currently in University and have a real passion for cooking. I always find the best way to relax during the school year was to cook. I have always danced with idea of dropping out and becoming a chef. I was wondering what kind of training you went through when you first decided to become a chef?
the washout rate for people that go to school for cooking is very high. i think something like 75% of people that go to school are no longer cooking professionally in 3 years. its a tough tough life. 70+ hours a week, work nights and weekends, social life dies, shitty money for the first few years. really shitty. burns, backaches, cuts. 12+ hours a day on your feet. if you really are thinking of cooking go get a job at a restaurant over the summer in a kitchen. try it first. see if you can do it for a summer before you leave school. in a restaurant enviornment it is not so relaxing also. it's a very high stress enviornment. lots of yelling, and cursing and pressure to finish on time. every day is a race against the clock.
[–]KnightKrawler 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Not to mention that fact that his $50K culinary degree is worth less then my 10 years of experience.
In all my years of cooking the people that annoyed me the most were recent culinary grads.
That sounds like every profession- the recent grads think they know everything (this is coming from a recent grad).
[–]Toglco 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
burns, backaches, cuts
This is why I wash dishes instead of cook. I still get back aches, but at least I can stay away from hot fryer oil, using knives, boiling water, etc. I don't think most people realize how dangerous kitchens can be.
One more: any advice on getting reservations at hard-to-get-into places other than calling 6 weeks in advance? I'm thinking of those times where you want to celebrate something unexpected (new job, etc.) and you only have a day or two notice. Any secrets on getting a place to fit you in?
it's tough if you don't know anyone. best thing is to be really nice to the reservationist first of all. if they are really nice you may be able to get them to call you if someone cancels. other then that it's hard if you have no connection to the restaurant.

I have many more questions so I hope you continue to answer them tomorrow night, as I must go to sleep and wont have access until tomorrow night.
Thanks for doing this, I have a friend who finished culinary school and is slaving away at an Italian restaurant, paying his dues. It made me curious and I read Heat, on a whim and am fascinated by this culture I wasn't familiar with.

Are you in a relationship? How is it going?
And how are you knees?
nope. single. have not had a real gf in almost 5 years. working 80-90 hours a week makes it tough. my knees are fine, my back not so much.
Is it worth it?
sometimes i'm not sure. i am 35 and 15 years ago i would have thought i would have been married with kids by now.....
this is kind of a weird off topic question. why do you ask? cause chefs are known to be tough to get along with?

What is the best way to design a menu?
Can you get specific on great combinations and big no no's that most small restaurants make?
this answer is way too involved. this is actually a science. color, placement of items, pricing, font. all these things matter. there are whole books dedicated to this subject.
What is an ideal range for how many items you should have on the menu?
[–]helloooochilren[S] 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
depends on the clientele and type of restaurant. that way too general a question to answer properly.
[–]roger_ranter 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Back of house vs front of house. Story. Go.
i almost got arrested for beating the shit out of a front of the house manager when i was a line cook 10 years ago. i did lift him off the floor by his shirt and slam his against the wall. and he did call the cops. but i stayed out of the slammer.
[–]Maxmidget 13 points14 points15 points 1 year ago
That was a very complete story and I have no desire for you to elaborate on why you chose to life him off the floor by his shirt and slam him against the wall
Why? What did he do?
he said something to me he shouldn't have. i will leave it at that. when i was younger i had a really bad temper. i still have a bad temper but it has gotten much better as i have gotten older.
Finish this sentence: "I wish I could have..."
started cooking after high school instead of when i was 22.
How do you get rare/medium rare meat to be tender? I've never tried it because it seems like it would be chewy and tough. I've always eaten well done.
look up a few replies. the whole process of cooking meat well is explained above.
Ever partake in any hijinks, a la waiting? Little surprises in the food?
never. that stuff never happens in a real restaurant. if i saw someone do anything like that i would fire them in a heartbeat.
How does cooking large volumes quantities of food change the preparation method? If I'm making a meal at home it's pretty basic. But there would be a huge difference if I'm cooking to order or even doing a catering thing with 100's of individual serves. Always been curious as to how the cooking methodology changes.
well the first thing i teach young cooks is to work in an assembly line method. if you have to 1.peel, then 2.slice, then 3.punch out rounds from the slices from potatoes it's important you do it in this fashion. this means you do step 1 to all the potatoes then 2, then 3. not doing 1 then 2 then 3 to each individual potato. this may seem like a small difference but it makes a big difference time wise when prepping huge batches. other then that its mostly the equipment you use in a restaurant is made to handle large batches.
during service its all just about timing which takes years of practice to develop properly. seconds count during a service. and one overcooked dish can really kill my service. it does not just effect the 1 table i have to refire the dish on, it effects all the following fires because they are delayed while the one dish is recooked. once you fall behind and start playing catchup all night it can be a real disaster.
[–]Sanemind 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
What are the most ideal (vs. least ideal) circumstances when one is ordering fish?
(From the customers point of view, i.e. most fresh, best value, etc)
this is a tough one. i suggest you go to a restaurant known for its seafood in particular and make sure it's a busy restaurant so that the fish is getting ordered on a regular basis. some slow places will only get fresh fish 1-2 times a week and either freeze it or use shitty fish. i order fish every single day where i am. but every restaurant is different so it's hard to make any blanket statement. but i suggest if a server is really pushing a fish special hard, don't get it. more then likely its stuff about to go bad. especially a restaurant thats closed on sunday and pushing fish on monday hard. more then likely this fish came in friday or saturday and is already 2-3 days old.
[–]econleech 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Hmm..., does that mean if the waiter say "special of the day is salmon", then it's likely they have lots of salmon about to go bad?
like i said it depends on the place. it could be old. or their fishmonger could have had a lot of extra salmon and is selling it very cheap, so the chef bought it at a really good price and is running it as a special. you just don't know unless you are a regular and know their standards well.
you know baking is all technique. that and learning to follow instructions exactly. baking is similar to chemistry. you have to follow the correct formula, timing, measuring, etc. being really precise is key. i suggest you just get some professional level pastry books cheap on amazon or a used book store and try out recipes that interest you. pastry ingredients tend to be cheaper then non pastry so you can experiment and have some failure without feeling guilty. it's very much a science.
[–]Sarah_Connor 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I am late to the game here - but hopefully you'll see this.
I have not been to a michelin restaurant, so I dont know how the menu is organized -- but do you ever have people that come in and just say "Ill take whatever the chef will serve me"
This is what I want to find - a menu-less restaurant. I want to go in, sit and just have stuff arrive. No ordering and only a brief intelligent explanation of the dish when it arrives.
Possibly the only question to be asked is what I would like to drink, red or white.

I worked as a waiter for a few months and in my experience (backed up by what I've seen on this thread) chefs tend to be stressed, overworked, unhealthy (backs and knees are recurring problem areas...) and often underpaid.
What do you think draws most people into cooking professionally? Do they not know what they're getting into (I saw your comment that 75% at cooking schools don't cook professionally for long) or is the compensation (food related?) so fantastic?

I've been to a few one and two star restaurants in California, there was a huge difference between the one stars in terms of the type of food they prepared. Some seemed much more focused on presentation where as others seemed more focused on the flavor. All the meals where delicious, though. Now the two start places had food that was better than the one star places but it was not a huge difference. How are the ratings determined?

I love cooking. I really want to be great at it. I've looked into culinary school, but it seems to be overkill for me and I have no plans of ever working in a commercial kitchen. Ideally I'd love to get to a skill level where I could, for instance, make a dish out of things from a vending machine ala top chef. I've read some books, but i can't seem to grasp the fundamentals and i still rely on recipes. Any suggestions on how I can evolve my education? What books are essential? Should i look for private lessons? Is there culinary school lite?

Whenever I am making a dish with garlic and chili in the base, I put both things in the pan as the first things, and this seems to really kill the taste of the garlic and the spiciness of the chili - is this true?
Also, I made my first ever risotto the other day. It was a simple mushroom risotto with portobello mushrooms. I cooked the portobello in a separate pan with some garlic and some white wine and then added it to the risotto with the last ladleful of stock. The risotto turned out great in texture, but I had hoped for a little more wild mushroom and forest in the taste - what's the master chef's tip here? I should note that I did not wash the portobello prior to cooking.

If you could only pick one regional cuisine to cook, which would you choose and why?
How do I learn how to season correctly? When to add which spice, how much salt to add, etc. Do I add the salt as the dish is cooking or after its finished?
I don't know if chefs use things like this but what are some of your favorite seasoning/spice blend recipes? Things where you pre mix a bunch of spices up and keep inside a tin to season things.
