Vegetables
Also we talked about vegetables today. . .
· Vegetables that grow underground – boil from cold water with lid on
· Vegetables that grow on top of the ground – boil water first, then add vegetables with lid off
· Vegetables that grows on top of ground – green vegetables – lid off
· Spinach does not absorb water
· Mushrooms should be wiped off and not rinsed
Things that sticks to me. . .
§ Don’t back chat chef
§ Kitchen must stay clean
§ Stay calm and you must be able to work under pressure otherwise you won’t make it
§ Multitask
§ Listen, yes\ no chef
§ Don’t say please and thank you kitchen – it’s a professional kitchen
§ Stand a lot, no sitting
§ Get muscles, girls and boys are equal
§ Keep cleaning as you go
§ Keep your uniform on from the moment you step out of that house and till you step back in again.
§ Look neat at all times
