Hallelujah! A chef who cooks by touch! That's how I was taught in a steakhouse when I was young. Just touch the food. Your fingers will tell you if it's cooked. In a year, we did not have one steak or burger sent back. In the steakhouse I currently work at, there are at least 5 sendbacks every night , some of them twice. Thermometers don't lie? No, they're totally unreliable unless you have Michelin standard equipment. As to hygiene, you washed your hands in the old days. That's what the sinks and soaps and buckets of bleach water were for. We used them. What a shocking novelty, ay? I am an old cook now, but I would work for this guy any day, and cook with heart, which is something I don't get to do anymore.

A chef who has never cooked by touch instead of a timer, this was very unfair. Wwhy the heck was she given a more difficult task that the guy?

Put some bloody headwear on, the customers don't want to chew through your hair or dandruff as an unplanned add-on to their dishes. This is top end and very expensive food. Wear a hat!

In pedagogy we call that "silent knowledge" when it's based on feel/instinct that can't be verbalized.

I made bread yesterday. It's the first time I didn't use exact measurements, or a timer for the proof or bake. I could feel the dough, could feel I needed to add flour or water. It came out perfect

I am amazed that they don’t use a meat thermometer as with touching the meat you are in dangers of serious cross contamination and bacteria

No comparison, Marianne is a natural cook, she cooked the socks off Brice. Techniques mean nothing if you haven't got that natural instinct to feed.

Marianne just needs to stay away from meat then she's good. She is an excellent cook. Her weakness lacks sometimes in presentation. But, the layd can cook her ass off.

😮Well I can't stand meat cooked all the way through but even when I've grown the meat myself and know every bite its eaten & every step to my table there is absolutely NO way I want to eat meat that looks like its a defibrillator away from leaving the plate!!! In this world my idea of medium- rare would be well done I think. I don't want meat to look like you poured hot water over it to make the outside kinda grey & slapped it on the plate!!! I'd seriously consider being a partial vegetarian or whatever the term might be. I'd love the dairy, and other parts but keep blue-red meat away from me!!! Not sure how they avoid food poisoning or parasites knowing where the meats came from and dubious butchering etc!!!
