Kitchen specialist (m/f/d) Training

2-year dual training program with 1 to 2 days of vocational school per week. People who enjoy working in a team and with their hands are particularly suitable for the kitchen. Daily life is characterized by handling and processing food. Manual skills, care and a good sense of taste help here. There is often time pressure in the kitchen, so it helps if you can handle stress well and are fit. The new training occupation of kitchen specialist is aimed at anyone who wants to learn professional cooking from the ground up, but doesn't want to deal with theory and figures. Kitchen specialists know their way around the kitchen basics: they learn how to process and prepare all kinds of food. They know how to prepare simple meals and dishes from meat, fish and vegetables. They can prepare and garnish salads and desserts and make simple soups and sauces. To do this, they learn different working and cutting techniques and cooking methods as well as how to use recipes and kitchen appliances. They can also receive and store goods and are familiar with hygiene.

Training as a kitchen specialist takes two years. After successful completion, the training company and trainee can agree to continue the training and obtain a qualification as a chef.
