Wie wäre:

"Ich bin eine leidenschaftliche / passionierte Köchin."

Ganz falsch wäre es nicht, '....eine leidenschaftliche Hobbyköchin' zu schreiben. Aber das Adjektiv sollte dazu. (Auch wenn ich es bald nimmer hören kann, dieses 'leidenschaftlich' .. 'mit Herzblut' usw.)

Hier noch ein Artikel, wie Nigella Lawson* sich und ihren Beruf sieht:

https://www.lennyletter.com/story/nigella-law...

"I am routinely called a chef. I point out, politely, that I am not a chef, but a home cook who writes about food (I have no training and have never cooked professionally)..."

Also evtl. auch in die Richtung "Ich bin keine ausgebildete Köchin ..."

*als Beispiel für "home cook"

Das Zitat stammt übrigens nicht von Nigella Lawson (#11)

We don't actually know a lot about the woman Oedipa is translating.

What is the difference between an amateur chef and a home cook (if there is a difference at all)?

Well, I would argue that the main difference is that there is no such thing as an amateur chef. A chef directs a kitchen and a staff, creatively and at least in part in the kitchen itself. They get paid for that, unless it’s their own restaurant, in which case they are paying themselves.

I suppose an student who is doing a stage and not getting paid is an amateur cook, which is different from a home cook. Home cooks aren’t required to think about volume, or consistency, or speed. Amateur chefs do if they ever want to become professionals.

This is all opinion. I’m a home cook. I would get paid to stay out of a professional kitchen.

This is my definition. An amateur chef will create recipes and will vary ingredients in recipes. A home cook may vary some ingredients, but usually doesn’t try to create new recipes and follow most recipes closely.

I consider myself to be an amateur chef.

By definition a chef is a person who leads a team at a restaurant. That does NOT mean that that “chef” is a “good cook” It is a JOB FUNCTION not a designation of quality

There are some spectacular gourmet home cooks. In fact, one of my favorite FB cooks is a oncologist that posts up pictures sometimes. She understands flavor, aroma, texture, plating better than 99% of working cooks and chefs that I know. Some of the best food experiences I have had are home cooked by people who have never been in a commercial kitchen. But NONE of those people claim themselves to be chefs.
