Cook

You cook two hot lunch dishes and a vegetarian option each day from fresh produce, using combi steamers, tilting pans and the grill plate. In the morning you check deliveries, prepare the mise en place and set up the salad bar, then cook in batches during service so the food stays fresh until 14:00. You record core temperatures and cooling times on the HACCP list and keep your station clean. The canteen is in the Bramfeld district, the shift runs 06:30-15:00 from Monday to Friday, and you report to the kitchen manager.
