I've just read a couple posts on here by local furs talking about currently being in, or recently having completed a culinary training programme.

Knowing of at least one other Vancouver area fur who has a culinary career I'm curious how many are out there.

I want to get into bakery as a "backup" career in case my career-less simple life goal fails horribly. Right now I bake a few cakes and other pastries once in a while; just to have tasty baked goods that doesn't have 600 pounds of sugar or chocolate flavor buried in it. Like the ones found in stores or café lol.

Edit: Would be nice to share recipes of salty or sweet baked stuff with other furs. Maybe even make some and eat together ^^

I'm really surprised to see so many people in, or into the culinary career track. I'm pleased though, and wish luck to those of you who only know school so far.

this sounds like fun, should add a "food" section to the creators board (hint hint mods)

I baked a bunch of cinnamon rolls yesterday. They're almost gone now... I think my roommates might have something to do with their disappearance, investigation to follow.

^ I really want to see and/or show baked goods that aren't sweet! And learn some new dishes (even though I'm not interested in general cooking as a career home made "special" dishes are good once in a while ^^)

Recipe I got from the Metro rag on Friday. It's chicken thigh rolled with Prosciutto and Monty Jack cheese. The sauce is made primarily of white wine, whipping cream, chicken broth and chicken drippings. Super easy to make.. I just made a boat load of sauce :P
