SteemFoods X Steemit Engagement Challenge Contest 2️⃣ | Who Is Your Favorite Chef 🧑‍🍳 in Your Family? | +25 STEEM Reward ⭐️

Hello food lovers, how are we doing? i believe we are all doing well. today in my article I want to introduce to you all my favorite chef in my family. Actually my mother is the best cooker in my family because, she thought me how to cook and also how to maintain good hygiene when ever I'm cooking.but for the sake of this contest I will be Introducing myself as the favorite chef since my mom is not here with me but she really taught me how to cook very well.
My name is yakubu peace, I'm the only child of my parents, I started cooking for my family when I was 10years old. When i was growing up i have this passion of becoming a professional chef because I love cooking, anytime my mum is cooking I'm always with her in the kitchen provided I'm at home, as such i got to learn a lot from her cooking skills after that my mum stopped entering the kitchen because she knows I was capable of cooking the best meal for the family.
During the covid-19 brake I enrolled my self into a catering school were I learned how to bake different types of cakes, snacks, drinks and food.and the reason why I went to train myself is because I want to learn more about cooking not just at home but to the would world, and to the glory of God my dream of because a professional chef will come to pass in due time. Because presently I'm seriously working towards that.
Cooking is one of the things that gives me joy, because even if I'm upset the only thing that calm me down is when I'm cooking or baking. I'm so much in love with cooking and right now it has become part of me.
