Knife Skills with Lian P.

I am a food lover, always searching for great things to taste even when not working. I enjoy learning about new ingredients; how to eat them, how to cook them and the history behind them. Over the years I have realized how food can tell so much about a place and its people which is why I decided to pursue a career in the food industry. I can give you tips and tricks which will help you realize cooking is not too hard as long as you have the passion and determination to make beautifully tasting dishes. My experience is solid with Mexican cuisine especially tacos. In my hometown Chicago, I have been working with a restaurant concept of new and exciting tacos. We use the humble tortilla as a vessel to transport some of the most delicious fillings from all over the world, while leaving the traditional staples of Mexican Cuisine shine on the menu. I can organize to fulfill the needs of each individual student. The food world is very large, but depending on the interest of the student we can head on a path and part from there. My curriculum will be based on the basics and according to experience/ability of each: Safety Knife handling/Skills Cooking Techniques I can't wait to show you a taste of what it's like to be chef! I have plenty of stories about kitchen life and my travels. The most important thing to remember is to have fun, enjoy the moment and never stop learning, because everyday has something new to offer!
