Even cooks need to know how to draw…

From Elizabeth David, "French Provincial Cooking", (1960)

As part of a new series highlighting the different situations where drawing could save your life, I have found this illustration in a cookbook. If you are trying to explain how to make consommé, it really does help to have sharp drawing skills.

As an adult, you might think you don’t have the time to learn (you’d be wrong). However, if you want to give your child a headstart, sign them up for drawing classes. You never know, your son might want to become a cook.
