When : July 25th
Culinarians Day is a special day for anyone who cooks. That means just about everyone of us get to celebrate this day. You don't have to be a chef, or a graduate of a culinary institute to celebrate this delicious day. You simply have to cook, and to enjoy the results.
There's national concern over growing obesity in America. Recognizing this fact, one would think that this is a huge holiday. However, we found this to be one of the least known holidays in the country..... up to now. Not anymore! We have documented it so all can enjoy Culinarians Day this year, and in future years.
Now get into your kitchen and celebrate Culinarians Day. Cook up a storm. BTW: What time should I arrive to eat!?

For you, cooking is rarely about doing things from the book. You like to put your own twist on every recipe. You know a lot about cooking techniques and flavors. You have a good instinct for what will work... and how to rescue a failure.
Of all the types, you are the most likely to write your own recipes, cooking blog, or even cookbook one day. You're the type least likely to follow any recipe or cooking instruction exactly. Your intuition usually knows better.

You Are a Competitive Cook |
You are constantly working hard at being a better cook. When it comes to the kitchen, there's very little you can't do. Of all the types, you are the most likely to feel like you can cook a restaurant meal better at home. And you usually can. You're also the type least likely to rely on much prepackaged food. You make it better yourself, from scratch. |
That’s too funny.
