We've all done it, but some hack chefs actually brag about it. (The less time it takes to make sauce X or stuffed Y, the more cigarettes you can smoke by the dumpster.)
....if you think the only way to make hollandaise is in a blender.
....if fruit salsa means chopping a cup of canned pineapple and mixing it with pico de gallo (tomato's a fruit, right?)
....if you've ever put green beans and baby carrots on a veggie pizza.
....if combining garlic powder and mayonnaise magically equals aioli.
....if the difference between medium rare and medium is just a little more pressure on the spatula
....if buying demi-glace in a bag, box, packet or tub doesn't bother you
....if you think baked custards turn out just fine without a water bath
....if heating things up in a steam table is SOP
Thank you Mr. Minor
