Hello,
Good to find this site! I have recently jumped ships and moved from a highly-paid, restful and civilised job in academia to a poorly-paid, stressful job in a sweaty, noisy and testosterone-fuelled kitchen - and I am loving it! Oh dear...

I love pastry work most of all, but I am happy even when just poaching an egg. Again, oh dear....

Hope to get lots of good advice on recipes and career planning. Not sure what I can contribute, but perhaps my Italian roots and my love of patisserie will be of use to someone.

Cheers! E:chef:

Hi Elena! It sounds like you have a story behind your culinary career. I'm a home cook, and thanks to pastry chefs here I've gotten the courage to explore baking for my own pleasure. I know the pros enjoy learning and sharing here as well.

I hope you explore the site, and don't miss the blogs, photo gallery, cooking articles, etc. I hope we learn from you, too!

Regards,
Mezzaluna
