Dear Judges:
My name is Haley Goodwin, I did my project to learn more about French Cuisine
because I would like to have been a chef and move to France one day. I have always wanted to
be a chef because I found out there is so much art behind creating something you would enjoy to
eat. I want to move to France because I have always been fascinated with French culture. When I
took French class I figured out I enjoy the language but not only that, I would want to learn more
about the culture itself.
My senior project product is a French Cuisine consisting of an apple tart as the appetizer,
crêpes as my main course, and Mousse au Chocolate as my dessert. My French cuisine relates to
my research paper because it teaches you how to become a chef but also gives you a feel on
being a multicultural chef. Finding a good mixture and the right recipe was one of the biggest
obstacles I had because some of the types were to bizarre to create. I went from many varieties of
recipes till I finally found the right ones. I chose my three favorites and they have had a very
good outcome among people that have tried it.
Chefs need to be multicultural because in order to be a great chef you have to know more
than one cultures way to create food. You have to understand how each cultures natural flavors
mix together to create their natural dishes and be able to create that and take one countries dish
and mix it with another’s without conflicting flavors. Being a chef is also a people person, you
tend to get out more and learn about other cultures history. It allows you as a person to grow
more but gives you a new and fun creative interest. In order to pursue this as a college career you
need to go to a college such as Art Institute of Atlanta which offers Culinary Arts classes.
I think for senior project it makes sense to do because it helps you research and learn
more about the career of your choice to be able to allow you to actually see if this is something
you want to pursue. I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to allow me to
explain my project; I hope it had interested you about learning something from the French
culture.
Sincerely,
Haley Goodwin
