Thanks for watching!

On Day 5, the final day of our Culinary Boot Camp, we talk execution in the kitchen. Execution is one of the biggest stumbling blocks both amateur and professional cooks encounter, mainly because it isn't discussed or focused on in cook books or culinary school.

At its very basic level, cooking isn't that difficult. Start with a high quality ingredient, apply some simple flavor structure and the appropriate technique as discussed in our previous videos, and boom, you're good to go. Right?

Wrong.

You can have the best technique and the best ingredients, but if you can't EXECUTE, then none of that matters.

That's why the F-STEP Formula is (Flavor + Technique) X Execution.

Flavor strutture and technique are what you need to create any given dish. Execution, is how you get the dish from conception, to kitchen, to table. So many bad meals, especially in restaurants, occur to lack of execution, not lack of flavor or technique.

It's one thing to cook a single dish as a test recipe, but can you execute that dish on your busiest nigh of the week, when your dining room is full and your entire team is under pressure?

You may be able to make yourself a solid dish out of your favorite cook book on a lazy Sunday by yourself when you have all the time and attention in the world, but can you execute that same dish for 15 people at your next dinner party without missing a beat, losing heat, or sacrificing quality?

This is the nature of kitchen execution! AND, it is the last thing standing in your way of culinary greatness. So let's break through this barrier, and I'll see you on the other side!
