"Read as many cookbooks and food publications as possible. Immerse yourself in the material! Peruse food markets, and save your money to have occasional restaurant meals in good places. Ask questions of experienced cooks. Get a job prepping in a restaurant that makes the kind of food you like. And above all, experiment with your own ideas in the kitchen. You might not need to go to culinary school if you do all the above. On the other hand, culinary school, if you can afford it, might be the way to go. Visit one, and see what it's like,"
Mollie Katzen, author of "
Moosewood Cookbook" and "
The Enchanted Broccoli Forest."
