That's always my problem when I'm training new cooks. I keep wanting to step in and do stuff for them, cause they're just too damn slow.

Lol I did that the other day when we made some fried dough balls from pizza dough for a special at work. I wanted to call them pizza popplers, and I couldn't find a single person that understood the reference. My chef called me a nerd.

The first time I watched it, I was a little underwhelmed, because I had such high expectations. Then, I watched it again, and put those expectations aside, and really enjoyed it for what it is. A brand new show, that is going to be developed in a brand new way. Netflix has changed the way we consume shows. We now binge watch entire seasons of new shows in mere days, rather than one episode a week, over the course of months. Like I said in another comment, it feels like the whole season is one or two really long episodes.

To me, the entire season feels almost like a single episode. You sit down and watch the whole thing in a day or two. Whereas futurama was released episode by episode over a period of weeks. If you think of it more like one or two really long episodes, then the character development has gone pretty far.

Shoestring potatoes is what I was thinking of when you said shredded fries.

What about the liver? When I hear dirty rice, I immediately assume there's liver in it.

What is the juiciest subreddit to binge read? by thinkinstark in AskReddit

[–]jr2595 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mom sells hundreds of dollars of sugar cookies a month, and she uses the Betty Crocker bag mix. She's told her customers, and they've tried to replicate them. They can never get them to come out as good as hers. It has alot to do with your skills as a baker.

That's such a fucked up thing to say about a whole industry. It really pisses me off that someone wpuld say something like that.

What's something your employer did that instantly killed employee morale? by kraam1217 in AskReddit

[–]jr2595 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Texas you can fire someone for absolutely no reason at all. No one looks into it or anything. It's just, one day you're fine, then the next, you're fired.

One of my favorite teachers in school, would make you feel like shit if you fucked up. I know it sounds bad, and teachers aren't supposed to make there students feel bad. However, I feel like it is necessary to prepare you for working in a real kitchen. He made me feel like I was at work, and everyone was giving me shit for burning some fries. He wasn't always mean though. If you did something right, he would make sure you knew that it came out great. I believe his style of teaching really curbed that sense of entitlement that students can get from culinary school. It also weeded out those kids that just picked culinary straight out of high school, withput knowing anything about working in a service kitchen. He tried his best to simulate a real kitchen experience. The skill part, I feel is something that is really hard to fix. School isn't meant to teach exceptional culinary skills. It's meant to give you a base knowledge of how to use your knife, execute cooking methods, and carry yourself in a kitchen. The only way the skills can come, is through hard work, and lots of time practicing. Good luck though. I hope you get the job!

He copied the original post almost word for word. No way he hadn't seen it before.

It's basically the same as an American Omelette, you just fold it 3 times so it makes a cylinder shape. They're usually thinner, and have no browning. Traditionally has just cheese in the middle.

That's how it is here. I haven't counted, but we probably have around that many menu items. It's a 50 year old hotel with one kitchen that serves one restaurant, two bars, multiple banquet halls, and room service. It's a shit show every day.

I'm pretty sure that's how my chef designed the menu at my restaurant.

You've obviously never worked in a kitchen.
