INTRODUCTION
As a Senior First Cook it is important that you know how to do everything that your subordinates
are doing. Imagine being in the position of not being able to answer a basic question about a
recipe! Imagine not being able to give prompt, accurate responses to employees who rely on you
to be a competent and informed superior. This lesson is not being taught in a cooking lab
environment, so pay particular attention to the techniques and information taught. We will begin
with the 11 considerations of menu development.
