One 300 lb. guy I recently watched said never cut veggies into small pieces and don’t add a little oil to the water when boiling pasta. He was using a 20 qt. pot half full to boil a lb. of spaghetti. He wasn’t cooking a half lb. in a 3 1/2 qt. pot where those few drops of oil keep most of the stove from being covered in a thin crust of salt from the boiling water by reducing splashing.
I cringe when I see a Chef that does not know how to hold a knife or crack an egg. I have determined that a cook never uses two hands to crack open an egg, unless it is to separate the yolk, and real chef can crack an egg open with one hand without getting any egg white on their fingers.
It is best to look for clues as a white jacket does not make a chef, even if he/she has been on tv.
