Scott’s Answer

Anyone can become a chef if they're dedicated, have a passion for food and are willing to learn. There are three paths to becoming a chef:

1) . Get a job in the kitchen and learn through on the job training

2) . Get a professional culinary education at a culinary school.

3) . Teach yourself through volunteer experiences, reading and experimenting at home.

The degree to which you become recognized as a chef is determined by your ability to demonstrate food knowledge, industry knowledge, strong execution of culinary skills and creativity.

Scott recommends the following next steps:

Look for culinary jobs on https://craigslist.org, facebook jobs, or other avenues where people are looking for help.
Apply for culinary school. They often have loan programs to help you get started. The top school is CIA in napa: https://www.ciachef.edu/. Look here for other good options: https://thebestschools.org/rankings/best-culinary-schools/
