My name is Paul and I'm a cook. I love to cook. I've been doing it professionally since I was 17 years old. I'm 40 now and running the kitchen at Billings Clinic hospital in my hometown, Billings, MT. I love kitchens. I love the things that make a kitchen a kitchen: the stoves; the grills; the steamers; the mixers; the utensils; the knives; the pots and pans; the people; and of course the food.
This blog is my attempt to share my experiences in the world of food, both professionally and personally. We'll be spending a lot of time in my favorite kitchen (the one in my home) with my favorite cook (my sweet wife, Molly). We'll share some recipes we love and our attempts at new dishes. Also, I'll try to give solid useful advice for making the home kitchen more functional for the average cook.
I'll take you to the hospital kitchen and see what happens in a large, high volume, institutional kitchen. We feed patients, visitors, doctors, nurses, and all the other people that make a hospital run. It's a huge operation that is full of challenges everyday. We'll meet some of the cooks and others that make it all come together.
We'll explore the food culture Billings. We'll take a look at which restaurants are doing it right and which aren't. We'll look at the local markets and where you can find the hard to find stuff. It isn't always easy finding everything you want in Billings, but it is growing and changing all the time.
Hopefully some people will find this blog useful and possibly entertaining.
