Cooking can really be a way to relax and decrease stress levels but for others there is more to cooking and take the professional route , becoming a chef. Masterchef is back on the screens and more publicity for professional chefs and junior showcasing their skills and talent given the opportunity to improve their skills and show how food can be very interesting. The television programmed is watched by many and uses celebritiers as judges.It has found a new angle to get to thier target audience using television to send and educate people about food, it gives chefs the exposure to them and the food also, gets more popular. The programme highlights the skills the chefs have and who would have thought that South African chefs can haveso much skills and be passionate about food until you watch Masterchef. Food is exposed abd it is so amazing what one thing or type of food can do for example ,most people think rice is just used for the main course meal but it can be also used to make dessert. I wonder if chefs also cook at home or just do it for television. Do they also go all outwhen cooking for thier families

Chefs also specialize in different sectors, have interest in types of food and specialize in it . I would think it is a talent but other people love food and end up going to study so they become professionals. There are terms used to refer to certain chefs : Chef de cuisine is a chef that is responsible for the menu creation and will therefore have a helper that is referred to as the Sous chef and the Demi chef is similar to the senior shef and the chefs that interest me the most and I call them the sweet chefs are Pastry chefs because they work with chocolate and bread ofcourse....Also get chef de Saucier,Passonier and Rotisseur. Its all for the love of food
Mmm.... food neh but i personally don't think these people or Master Chef actually cook even in the comfort of their homes. I think food that is cooked by someone else is best and more enjyable.
ReplyDeletebeing a chef is something that a lot of people especially in rural areas do not even think of. but my question is, is there enough job opportunities out there for Chefs???
ReplyDeleteIt is a good thing that chefs in South Africa are starting to be taken seriously and that there are now receiving the publicity they deserve.
ReplyDeleteits about time chefs are being recognised.
ReplyDelete@ss Nqwaba yes there are job opportunities for chefs.
ReplyDeleteDo you think the food being prepared by chefs can also be prepared by households familys who cook in their homes?
ReplyDeleteDo you think Master chef SA will be on the same level as Master chef UK?
ReplyDeleteI certainly agree with Nokuthula and Michelle, chefs are taken for granted and its time that they're given credit of their work because all we can do is eat eat eat but not appreciate.
ReplyDeleteso mapule tell which master chef is the best SA OR UK
ReplyDeleteIv learnt something new today,i didnt know that chefs could be referred to with diffrent names as per rank or speciality!
ReplyDeletei love that show so much, and indeed publisity is being generated from the show thus we see it going global and recently in south africa, but how long will we duplicate shows and not be original?
