If you're considering culinary school, you should know that the mental and physical demands of kitchen life will toughen you as a human, humble you, push you to your limits, cut you, bruise you, burn you, and leave you with cocoa-powder-tomato-paste-stained chef coats. But if you have passion and a love for learning, it will hone your skills, build your confidence, and give you a lot of unforgettable learning experiences in the process.
I will admit that like many people in my generation, I love the internet for all of its fast-paced, informative, and visually appealing food content. But cookbooks will always have a place on my shelf. Part genuine works of art and part functional kitchen tools, I will always treasure and value them.
Start building a secret recipe book and your future self will thank you.
