2. Historical information about the specialty "Technology of catering products"
Food production technology has improved along with more "serious" areas. From simple slaughter and harvesting, people moved on to processing individual products and synthesizing new ones from them. The profession of a technologist is not new in itself, but in modern form took shape after a period of general shortages, when products poured in from all directions and the need to make their own led to the need for companies in specialists who control the production process.
The profession of a food technologist has existed for a very long time, although the name of this profession has appeared relatively recently. Even in ancient Greece, the cult of Axlepius, the mythical healer, arose. His daughter Gigeia was considered the patroness of the science of health, and the cook Kulina was their faithful assistant. She became the patroness of the culinary arts, called "cooking" (from the Latin culina - kitchen). Records of various recipes are found in the written monuments of Babylon, Egypt, and China. Cooking has received great development in the ancient East. In the Middle Ages, French culinary specialists became famous for their art. In Russia, cooking as a science arose only at the end of the 18th century. The appearance of out-of-home catering establishments (taverns, taverns, etc.) is connected with the same event. it was at this time that people appeared who simultaneously managed such establishments and watched the cooking. The first representatives of the profession "technologist for cooking" can be called people who tried, tasted royal or royal food. These people have always enjoyed the respect and trust of kings and kings.
Today, due to the presence of a large number of various catering establishments, this profession does not lose its relevance.
3. Misconceptions about food service technologists making money
Demand for food technologists often exceeds supply, especially when it comes to highly specialized industries. This was largely influenced by the stereotype of low wages, which, due to the dynamic development of the food industry and active exports, is gradually being destroyed: food industry technologists often earn more than economists or business managers.
4. Mass character and uniqueness of the profession
Like many other professions related to the automation of labor and the need to maintain interest in the market for their products, the profession of a technologist requires, first of all, not a theoretical base, but a certain “creative vein”. A specialist in this field must be both unique and universal in his own way - such conditions are dictated to him by the modern economy.
5. Problems that may arise
Young specialists with the beginning of work can feel all its "charm" - first of all, they require considerable physical endurance. The working day of a technologist is often not limited to eight hours, if only because it is impossible to know in advance what problems and malfunctions will arise in the production process.
6. Where to get a profession
Special education is necessary for any applicant for such a position. Its “start” can be either a technological university specializing specifically in food technologies, or, say, a chemical institute - it all depends on how highly specialized work awaits it. The most authoritative are educational establishments specializing in several technological areas. A graduate goes through the stages from junior to chief technologist and can subsequently become a production manager. Our "Shebekinsky Agrotechnical Craft College" for a short history of training in the specialty "Technology of public catering products" has achieved success in educational, methodological and educational work, expanding the staff, strengthening its material and technical base, has managed to accumulate significant potential in all areas of activity.
