I became one of the best chefs in the Auckland area. There are a few of
reasons. First of all,
creativity. I am creative and always try something new.
Second, passion. I enjoy the process of selecting foods, preparing meals,
and creating menus. Third, I keep practising. Prepare food requires and skill.
A great chef never stops perfecting his or her technique.Last but not least,
cooking is a maths and every ingredient and measurement has a specific
role that a chef must be aware of.
How to adjust the recipes to serve more or less people to have the most
accurate and tastiest dinner party ever?
If you want to serve more:
For example, a mango pancake recipe is served for 3 people. You need to
serve 6 people. 6 is a double of 3, that means 2 times of 3. What do we have
to do is to double the quantity of the ingredients. Such as, 50g of flour, we
change it into 100g.
If you want to serve less:
For example, a mango pancake recipe is served for 8 people. However, you
just have to serve 3 people. What we have to do is divide the quantity of the
ingredients into eight, then times three to get the quantity for 3 servings. Or
we can just multiplied the ingredients by 83 . Such as, 200g of flour, we
change it into 75g.
