Great video. Very ambitious I always hope host inquire about dietary restrictions in advance or just forgo the nuts all together. I have an extremely severe tree nut allergy. Or I LOVE deconstructed style😊 Deconstruct those salads and let guest pick their items appropriately. It’s always a bummer when you have a severe allergy😊😊

I agree cooking school would be too much. I would rather take a casual class Thanks for the video

Are you able to walk into a kitchen, see what’s available (food wise), and be able to whip up something you’ve never made before?

You’re so cool Ericka Adler! Modelo especial is my fav beer! Cheers!❤️

Erica, you have a beautiful nose. I have to leave now, you are a married woman.

Are there any scholarships for high school students from other countries?

Where did she go?

I wanted to watch but I just didn't like her.

Are you okay? Even if you dont want to come back to YT hope you can let everyone know that you're okay.

Excellent! You are a great hostess. You are right that it’s not only about the food but also how relaxed and excited you are to serve & enjoy being the host.

Is meal preping frezzer neals for 50 to 100 days bad for post partum and it would cost 290$

Are there any examples of dishes that are so hard to prepare and cook correctly that it would be best to take a class?

Does your school offer any recreational or non-credit classes? I like to cook for myself, but I'm not interested in making a career out of it.

Very late to the party, but I wanted to say that I've been watching your channel for a while, and I really like and appreciate these types of videos from you. I like your thoughtful approach to making sure you set yourself up for success throughout the week, but you also give yourself room to be a person. Thank you for sharing this. It is really a comforting type of video for me to watch and gives me motivation to do the self-care that it takes to make my own life easier. I would love to see more!

So you have a cat? How does that work with meal prepping and sanitation? Cat hair etc? 😮

I’m sure her information is great…….I can’t listen to her talk…….WTF is that ? Who talks like that for real ? Oh my Goahd .

What culinary school doesn't teach you is that a lot of teachers are teaching because their restaurants went under/bust. Because it cost too much to keep it running with in these times. U have to adapt to take out and computer orders. Which is what culinary school hardly talks ever about. Even the CIA grads from the 70s are all pretty much changing careers. Personally, I rather learn from a chef that still has a restaurant functioning. If you live in a large city like la then it might be ok but in a small city or country town in the south - just forget about it. If you going to get a truck or catering business, you will be prepared to bust your but every day without a vacation . Also the chaces of you becoming a food network star is --- 0 ^ ...

I know in my country culinary school isn't kind of school, just pure form of torturing student, factory of insomnia, stress, depression and start hate everyone. For 4 years i working there and i hate every second of that school.

Erica: I will say!

How would they heat up this meal? Is it just a preference on if they want to eat the chicken cold with the slaw?

ive been debating getting into cooking and becoming a chef at a golf course. my goal. ive watched a lot of videos and have talked to people and have been in the service industry for years and everyone has deterred me from going into cooking. the kitchens are dark and people are mean and lets face it, not always the most intelligent or upstanding citizens. so its nice to see your video thats so bright and positive and smart. I know in the chef life it really comes down to where youre working. our chef at the golf course last year made the job look fun and doable and interesting. he didnt work on his feet for 12 hours a day, he didnt work every weekend or holiday, and he made a lot of money. to me it seems when people talk about the bad things about being a chef, theyre really referring to the time you have to put in when youre a line cook and working your way up

So cute but what about for people who aren't in high school

Your hair is Epic!

Thank you for this video. I am amazed that you meal prepped that many meals in 3 hours max. Do you visit any clients twice per week? I would love to see more videos about work as a meal prep chef. I have a long term goal of becoming a meal prep chef.

Thanks. That was relaxing to even watch.

I love the dress you are wearing during lunch. Please share the details .. please

I would definitely need some recipes ideas….. What can you recommend?

how long does it take to prep at a clients house for how many meals?

Definitely interested to know why you quit your corporate job? What were you working before you changed your career?

So glad I found you!! Been trying to get my ducks in a row to start my personal Chef business. You have answered some questions i had! Just purchased your ebook as well 🙌🏼

Please come back

Looks so delicious. I love the variety.

Very nice !!!

Wow Erica you have even calmed me down for a simple dinner party I am hosting this evening. Thanks for sharing your excellent insights relaxed manner. I hope it rubs off! 😜

While not for everyone, culinary schools enable students to channel their passion for food in a structured way that makes becoming a top chef more realistic.

Culinary school graduates are highly sought after in the industry because employers value not only the course content but also the kind of discipline a culinary degree program will instil in students. What should I know before going to culinary school? If you have decided to attend a culinary school, you should be aware that it is not only a financial investment - it’s also an investment of time.

You get access to top chefs every day, work alongside like-minded people who share your enthusiasm and drive to succeed and train on high-end equipment in state-of-the-art kitchens.

Culinary_school_worth_it.jpg How long does it take to finish culinary school? The length of your culinary education entirely depends on what stage of your career you are at and which of the many culinary school programs you decide to study. For high school leavers taking a Bachelor’s culinary degree, you should expect to spend at least three years studying before you graduate, especially if your program includes an internship.
