Hi, and welcome! I'm Jenni, the pastry chef of Pastry Chef Online, and I want to help you be fearless in the kitchen!
For years, I was a fearful cook and baker--like sweaty-neck fearful.
After years of reading cookbooks, watching cooking and baking shows, and experimenting in the kitchen, I left a 16-year special education career to attend culinary school. I landed in a wonderful fine dining restaurant in Winter Park, Florida, where everyone was fearless, playing with their food on a daily basis. It was always, "I wonder what would happen if we..." and then we'd try it and find out. By the time chef handed me a 6th pan of horseradish broth and asked me to turn it into a sorbet for an appetizer, I knew my fearful days were totally behind me!
I started this site to teach people the basic pastry methods and techniques necessary to build a solid foundation in the pastry kitchen, especially if that kitchen happens to be in your own house. Over the years, I have added hundreds of recipes to complement my technique posts. Please use this site as the resource I have built it to be, and feel free to contact me anytime. I'm happy to help you on your journey to being fearless in the kitchen!
