Danish apprentice chef checking in.

[HTGC]

Hello and thanks for the membership. 

I'm a danish apprentice chef (age 29), having short of 2 years left on my education. Working in a "steakhouse" and in the sparetime doing a lot of playing around with food and reading(About food, obviously).  

My favourites to play around with, is starters and desserts. Sweet tooth, I'd say. (My latest was a cinnamon ice cream lollipop with double fried pancakes, hazelnut puré, lemon curd and edible flowers. The next up for experimenting will be a hollow honey gel ball filled with camomile mousse)
I recently finished "Food Consumption in Global Perspective" by Jakob A. Klein and now starting to dig through Modernist Cuisine, so my interests are wide. 

I'm married to a english girl (half italian), currently living in Sao Paulo for her pHD(Human rights & their previous dictatorship). Both fascinated about food, food history/culture which gives a rich possibility to play around with different cuisines from different nationalities. 

 

I'm looking forward to reading, and hopefully contribute, a lot of interesting posts and ideas here.

Best regards

Hi @HTGC!

 

Glad to have you here, and I'm looking forward to hearing about what you are cooking in Denmark.

Welcome aboard! 

 

I spent as much time here as I could afford when I was a student and then an apprentice. Maybe more time than I could really afford, when I think of it. Learned a lot, though, so it was totally worth it.
