Knives up!

Ah! The smell of the fresh ingredients, the sound of the knife against the chopping tablet the vibrant colors of the final presentation of the dish... I have the privilege to experience all of these in my classes. I use the word 'privilege' because it is great the feeling of doing something you really enjoy. 


Our first task was to buy the knives that we are going to be using for the next months (and years, if they're good). Here's a picture of the most common knives employed in cooking:

I've taken several classes now and I'm still not that good as I would like to be ^^' But anyway, it feels great to put on the Chef suit, the hat and the apron and then start preparing something new. I have some pics of my last classes (not with great resolution, unfortunately D: I do not own a SUPER-MEGA AWESOME CAMERA yet, but one thing at a time, right?). I'll be sharing them soon...

Also, one of these days I will write some descriptions of the dishes I've been making. 

Try new dishes, it might surprise you one of these days ;p
