Chef - Library Binding

The word chef might bring to mind images of someone in a tall white hat, cooking gourmet meals in a swanky restaurant. However, trained chefs are found in many places throughout the community. Almost anywhere food is being cooked and served to the general public, you'll find a chef. Today's chefs do more than just think up fancy recipes--they also learn about how to handle food safely and prevent foodborne illnesses. This book explores the different paths available to train as a chef and the wide range of jobs available. Full-color photographs and detailed sidebars showcase all aspects of the culinary industry.
