Spoken Words of a Cook
This Poems will change your perspective on how cooks and chefs work.

Life
Love is what we are made of.
Individually we are seeking love
For we are made to socialize
Even we are alone today.
Life is a blessing made by God
Intellectually designed
For us to go forward
Each time we fell short.
Leave those worries away,
In time you may succeed
For you are great
End is the word for those who never believe to
their self.
Love
Loosing is hard if you focus on it
Over time you may be destroyed
Value it so you may learn
Ending is not an option.
Leave those things that may stressed you,
Overthinking may harm you.
Verily love is a gift that may empower you to
succeed.
Each failure may give you a chance to assess
your life.
Look forward my friend for you are made to
succeed.
Old ways may be good but changes is better.
Victory is on your hands.
Elevate your self from the failures to make it
better.
Passion
Playing is the word we may forget when we
grow older,
Action can be tiering as we grow older
Self is a word that we never value
Sort it out so you may understand
In pain we grow in time we may heal.
Offer your self time so it may glow.
Never give up so you may succeed in the path
that you choose.
Career
Careful on things that you will choose in life
Action is the word that may help you to start
Rare things can be found for those who never
stop
Error is part of growth.
Each time you worry, can consume your
opportunities.
Road in career is tough, but be passionate so you
may succeed.
Knife Skills
Dreaming is facile,
But making it work is hard.
Dreaming to be a CHEF is facile,
But achieving it is hard.
Cooking is facile they verbally express,
But doing it is hard.
Life is hard I verbally express,
But living is facile.
Knife adeptness is facile they verbalize,
But congruous technique is needed.
Learning to slice and chop is like learning how
to live.
First you required to ken what kind of knife you
require,
just like what kind of partner I require.
Second is learning to julienne, dice, and
chipponade,
is like learning how to interact
Third is sharpening and honing your knife is
consequential,
just like reading and integrating cognizance to
your self.
Lastly learn to be cautious because Knife is like
a life that will cut you and make you bleed until
you give up
Kitchen
Shit happens everyday, where you cant do
anything on it.
Kitchen is a place where you don't want to be.
A place where everything is contaminated of
different substances.
A place where dreamers are shattered in to
pieces.
A place where your whole life is consume like a
candle.
A place where forgotten people of society today
find a family.
A place where egoistic, dreamer, confused and a
believer understand each other.
A place where you will suffer in different kind
of anxiety.
A place where there is no room for a selfish
personality.
A place where demons becomes angels.
A place where easy life become uneasy.
But before you think twice my friend, just clear
your thoughts.
Because by the end of the day the most caring
and the most humble persons are in the kitchen.
At the end of the day enjoy and celebrate it
because you made your self a favor.
At the end of the day your team made a good
service where everyone is smiling.
Recipe
One half, one forth, and three forth
what kind of numbers are they?
I realized that a recipe is like making a plan for
your life.
At first you have to I identify what dish you
wanna make.
Then it is a Goal.
Second is to gather all the right ingredients for
your recipe.
Then it is looking for right friends and partner in
life.
Third is looking for a right equipment.
Then it is looking for a right knowledge and
skills.
Fourth is to find the right weight of every
ingredients.
Then it is making a right decision in life.
Fifth is the to put the proper procedure in your
recipe.
Then it is when you start to get experience and
learning from your mistakes.
And finally you cook and serve your dish.
Then this is the fruit of your labors after you
reach your goals.
Cooking
Chowder, filet mignon and steak
Those are fancy food we serve on the kitchen,
To feed those pretentious people who only look
for there own.
How we cook is the way how we express our
emotions.
Slicing and chopping ingredients is the the part
of our career.
Sautéing is the start of our greatness.
but before we end up of doing what we like, Mis
en place is our key to our success.
Lots of cooks claim different kinds of secret
ingredients.
But the real secret ingredients is the
determination and love for our craft.
And never forget where we learn how to cook,
it's a gift from our mom who always nourish us.
Mise en Place
Simple things we always put aside.
as if we don’t think it’s important in the kitchen.
and I thought it was important in life too.
Such as experienced chefs, that their lives
revolve around the job they choose.
As someone who dreams and loves, sometimes
we forget the importance of harmony and setting
aside the word readiness.
But while I am gaining experience in that
profession of my choice.
I thought it was important to be prepared as
well.
In the things I will deal with.
In things I don’t have to miss.
In things that are only small if you look at them.
Preparing and putting things in the right place is
important, just as you deal with the world of
uncertainty.
So to my friends and dreamers, mise en place is
an important teaching of the chefs that you can
not only apply in the kitchen but also in your
life.
We Bake
We are all afraid of things that are always
calculated.
Such as the elementary seemingly terrified of the
question of mathematics.
Baking a loaf is like the life of a normal person.
The first part is to combine essential ingredients
such as yeast, flour and water. Yeast is like our
brain that gives us lift.
Flour is like our body that gives weight and
value.
and water is like glue that gives us the
opportunity to make our dreams come true.
And the hands of the baker will be the shapers of
our lives,
and the heat of the oven will be the world that
will give us the opportunity to stand the test.
and the last part is up to us to choose the right
time.
Baking is not a simple thing it's like our lives that
must be measured and monitored.
Sauté
Cooking begins with sautéing the ingredients in
a hot pan and slowly adding spices to give the
food a unique kick.
And I will mix it with love that only I know how
to give.
With every gesture of my hands and with the
slow opening of my lips, utters the words that I
cannot say to the person I adore.
And as the soup thickens, I will also put the
ingredients that need to be softened along with
my heart which is also slowly thickening with its
soft words. and gives hope to my hopeful heart.
As we approach the last part of cooking, the
smells appear that seem to invite you to adore
me too.
And before I put out the fire of my stove,
I will first taste and observe what is missing.
Is it pepper or salt that is missing? or is it too
salty? that you occasionally avoid my sight? or
lack of salt? so that you will notice me?
or is it lacking in pepper? which will give a little
sharpness to my speech to arouse your eyes.
My dear, here is my dish that has been prepared
and not neglected so that with every bite you make,
you may also feel that you are important to
me.
Uniform
Uniforms give us respect and dignity as cooks.
Uniforms also provide protection against
dangerous objects in the kitchen.
But the most important thing is that the uniform
gives us good discipline. Discipline that can be
brought and will remind us to be prepared for all
trials.
we need to respect the uniform we have.
If you want to be proficient in the profession that
you choose you need to organize, respect and
take care of it.
Support
Cold and hot inside the kitchen.
Ohh dear I'm going to work again,
I'll start cooking again for our future.
As we look forward to a better future, I will try
to work every day to fulfill our desires.
My dear, I'm sorry for being too late on my way
home.
My dear, I'm sorry if I don't have time to say
hello to you.
For by the time of my arrival I was already
exhausted.
My dear, let you and I recover from my
shortcomings as long as you always believe in
me, and I will make the day happy to be with
you.
My dear, all our hardships and efforts will bear
fruit as well.
Thank you so much for your tireless support and
understanding.
Taste
Grade 4 when I started dreaming of cooking.
Because of my dear mother, I started holding a
knife to cut vegetables.
And on every day that God made, dear mother
always wakes up early to cook breakfast.
I will never forget the taste of the dishes he
served at our table.
Only memories of her cooking I remembered
fragrant dishes I seemed to taste at the tip of my
tongue.
My dear mother forgive me for the times I am
far away to reach my dreams, Hope that I will
not disappoint you in every decision I make
towards my dream.
In the future you will celebrate my success and
re-taste the dishes that shaped my dreams.
To my dear mother, father, brothers and sisters,
expect me to come home again so that we can
complete our dinner table again.
Leadership
It's hard to start in the kitchen without knowing
how to adapt to new chefs.
And it’s even harder to get in and work in the
kitchen if they find out you’re from culinary
school, they’ll test how much you know and
what you can do. you will be laughed at for
wasting money on cooking.
But what they don’t know is that it’s not just
cooking.
Here you will learn how to get along, make
friends, think and understand.
Understand the distrust of people.
Here you can also understand that people will
believe you and trust you if you can show them
that you know what you are doing.
So here comes your leadership that you can’t
fully understand just outside of university
studies.
Education will give you greater understanding to
guide those who are proud and those who
despise you.
My friends always remember that respect is
priceless.
Respect is reaped by showing the respect that
you know is right.
Culture
Culture is essential for man to move forward.
And in every place there is a new culture to
develop.
Culture that will give life to the modern
generation.
which if you review is refreshing.
In every kitchen there is a culture you can't
change.
The culture of brotherhood and appreciation for
the food they love and the country they came
from.
Soul
Cooking is endless and without judgment.
only a love of cooking can reconcile each race.
Only food can calm two people arguing.
Food can also cause them to argue.
But as a cook our job is to unite people who
argue, love each other and believer that there is
peace in heaven.
Constructive Criticism
With every shout and criticism you will receive.
With every sweat and blood you offer towards
your dream.
Do not lose courage and determination.
Every time you wake up early and when you go
to sleep late don't forget to thank our dear God,
because of every hardship and sorrow He will
not leave you.
Do not be discouraged, because in the kitchen
there is always hope for the industrious and
persevering person.
Heart and Soul
Put away your fears
Strengthen your mind
Save your heart.
Taste the hardship
Accept your weakness.
this is what will bring you success
Believe in him
Believe in yourself that every effort you make
has a reward
Believe in yourself you will prosper.
Believe in yourself not everyone can trust you.
Believe in yourself you can resist all who
despise you.
Believe in yourself that you are the only way for
you to reach your dream.
With every sweat you offer yourself, there is
hope to come to you.
Think that you are not alone because even if you
believe in yourself only God will give you the
strength to fight.
Pray for guidance and protection from any
disaster.
Never forget
don’t forget to smile and be happy with the little
things.
don't forget to fall in love again.
don't forget someone believes in you.
don't forget there are good people still coming to
you.
don't forget your dreams.
don't forget your parents.
don't forget your best friends.
never forget that there is a God who guides you.
don’t forget to smile and be happy with the little
things.
don't forget to fall in love again.
don't forget someone believes in you.
don't forget there are good people still coming to
you.
don't forget your dreams.
don't forget your parents.
don't forget your best friends.
never forget that there is a god who guides you.
There will be no great person that has never
experience to taste the rock bottom of life.
Be grateful because you are on the right path.
