No Gerard,it's not necessary to be a butcher, a baker or a candlestick maker to become a Certified Master Chef. At least not where I grew up and learned my trade.
Usually we send apprentices that are overtaxed mentally to handle multiple skills, such as required of a chef, to persue a career in baking, long before they could become a Certified Master Chef.
But, after listening to your righteous tirades, I'm not so sure we are doing them a favor after all. Could be that inhaling flour on a continous basis clogs up the braincells enough to turn perfectly good people into virtual flamethrowers.
Don't despair my good man, there got to be help somewhere.
But, I'm afraid, they are all using thermometers to take your temperature and use that awful wristwatch when they time your pulse to check your bloodpressure (that's probably awfully high by now). Dang rocket science, all it is. Oh well, maybe a faith healer from one of the Pacific islands could help. I saw them removing spleens, just by touching and laying on of hands. No thermometers either, goody-goody.
I really have to leave now to wring out the mouse-pad, tears of despair and all.
PS: do you specialise in rumcake or truffles, or is there another product to utilize overbaked cakes. Oh, I forgot that you use your internal clock. How dumb of me.Apologies.
