Recipes! I look forward to them! For several years I was a cook who got paid. Now I just cook for free, and therefore free to make more mistakes:)

🤩 How very interesting! What type of cuisine were you cooking when you were getting paid? Have you thought of opening your own restaurant? I sometimes say that I want to have a food truck. But for me cooking has never been a job. I have watched professional chefs prepare food in hotel restaurants. I have always been more interested in the food and beverage department compared to the housekeeping for instance. I also love taking photos of food.
I worked in American rinky-dink restaurants, however, received an excellent self-taught education while cooking for one of them. The boss let me experiment freely, and I took up a great interest in fine cookery, even if the restaurant served American steak and baked potatoes. I was making tangines for specials—had my little corner in the refrigerator for preserved lemons. For a decade or more I would use Gastronomique as my pillow.
That sounds great 🧑🍳 You were lucky having the opportunity to experiment. Even right now I have a jar of preserved lemons in my fridge so I reckon I am heading in the right direction 😉
I never said I was a good cook:)
