Mentor Interview

My mentor that i have selected is my grandma. As she has a vast amount of experience in cooking and I have known her all my life, she is the most obvious choice for a mentor. She is also the best cook i know.

As for the Interview,

What cooking experience do you have?

I started off cooking for five children for over 20 years and went on from there.
I have taken many cooking classes around the world and relatives that have come from different countries have passed on their recipes to me.

What type of foreign dishes do you know?

My mother in law came from Czechoslovakia and has taught me all of her baking recipes. Favorites are Poletsinkies, and Kolachky which is a dessert type of bread with cinnamon in the middle.

Baking is all about precision; How precise are you?

As you repeat these recipes, the right feel comes along, so I  mostly guess on what feels right. It Still turn out great though.

What is your favorite thing about baking?

The satisfying feeling after watching someone enjoy something i have made.
