I had a friend that was at one point working as a world known chef. He would not tell you things about a recipe or would only let you help prep basics like veggies if he was cooking dinner saying "its a secret".

Mother fucker. I am not making money on this ever. I am not posting it online. I am not even going to be able to do it exactly like you because you have been doing it professionally for like 20+ years.

Stop holding out on your "secret" especially if you are no longer a chef. My much younger friend that is a chef and has worked in some of the best restaurants in the world will not just tell you what/how he cooks something he will help you do it and learn. I'll still probably never do it as well as he does but at least he is not hiding something from me so he can get a ego trip on his cooking.

I think im having a day... end rant. For now.

The rationalization is because you can not patent a recipe since it has to do with survival (food). Then yeah, like you said, they're not making a million off of their precious recipe.

It annoyed me the most when I invited them over and I was going to cook but then they are like "ill take over, do this for some prep" then they would not even show me the very basic crap they were doing since "ego". We don't really talk much anymore. My friend that will show/teach you anything are still good and close friends. I do that too, just with tech stuff. Not as many people want to learn tech stuff as cooking stuff but they do get free tech help if they help me with, well.. anything?
