So the boy and I were watching Chopped (a cooking contest show where the cooks have to make dishes incorporating a variety of items from a basket) a few weeks ago, and one of the items in the basket was rhubarb. One of the chefs said, "Of course, with rhubarb, you have to peel it, and that takes time."

The boy and I looked at each other.

"I never peel rhubarb," I said, "and neither did my mom."

But my curiosity, it was piqued!

That reminds me of this one chef on Top Chef DC that was talking about Pork Butt and he said something like "I don't care if it comes off a pig's ass, if it's tasty, I'll cook it."

But, um, pork butt is actually the shoulder.

How do you become a chef w/o knowing that?
