Sous Chef Job Description
The Sous ("soo") Chef is the second in command after the Chef de Cuisine or Executive Chef in the kitchen, almost like the first mate to the captain. Sous is French for "under," and the under chef is the unsung hero of the kitchen, the one who makes things run. While the Executive Chef's name is on the menu, it might well be the Sous Chef who created--and cooked--the dish that's on the table in front of you. Sous-chefs supervise the activities of Specialist Chefs, Chefs, Cooks and other kitchen workers, and they may demonstrate new cooking techniques and equipment to cooking staff. They may plan menus, requisition food and kitchen supplies, and prepare and cook meals and specialty foods.
Information on becoming an Sous Chef
Second in charge in the kitchen under the Executive Chef or Chef de Cuisine. Highly respected position but may be well overshadowed by the Executive Chef in the glory.
