I'm a Chef and writer who has an immense passion for what I do. I tend to rant and ramble on a variety of subjects, hence the title of this blog. The "in-training" part of the title comes from my belief that no matter how experienced a chef may be, he or she should always be training him- or herself and constantly striving to become better.

Angel food cake

I've had to have made 6 angel food cakes in the past two weeks. The recipe is easy and the cakes always turn out great, but God damn... I'm starting to get sick of making them... The worst part is the egg whites. I'm not a pastry chef, so I have to assume that my interpretation of "medium peaks" is right, and I've probably been under whipping them slightly... Like I said, the cakes always come out great, but I'm too much of a damn perfectionist to be ok with not doing it right.
