Meet Dr. Chef Elliott Farmer

We were lucky to catch up with Dr. Chef Elliott Farmer recently and have shared our conversation below.

Dr. Chef Elliott , thank you so much for joining us and offering your lessons and wisdom for our readers. One of the things we most admire about you is your generosity and so we’d love if you could talk to us about where you think your generosity comes from.

My generosity comes from knowing personally how it feels to have a need, even a desire, met by someone without being able to afford it.

There have been several times during my childhood that I did not have enough food to eat, presentable clothing to wear or a place to lay my head.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

– having on the job training to be a sous chef from a busboy from my high school part time job.
– forever learning your craft. Stay current.
– be a sponge.

Okay, so before we go, is there anyone you’d like to shoutout for the role they’ve played in helping you develop the essential skills or overcome challenges along the way?

I give ALL glory and honor to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Also, to the precious Holy Ghost whom I rely on constantly to steer me in the right direction in the kitchen and throughout my life.
