Luigi Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 http://go.osuit.edu/communications/news/content/monk-and-culinary-student-br-george-hubl-uses-cooking-express-creativity There's been talk lately in other threads about the role of lay brothers. Here's one who's in culinary school so he can cook for the monks of St. Gregory's in OK. Not earth shattering, but nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmaD2006 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 I know of a priest and a religious sister who went to culinary school. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 I know of a priest and a religious sister who went to culinary school. :) Well, the Church has always emphasized the importance of the Last Supper, so I guess the culinary arts have always had a special place in Catholic tradition. Am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabriela Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I own a few cookbooks on "monastic" cooking. :bible: :eat: Such wonderful ideas for soups & casseroles....& feast days :hehe2: I think that is amesome :) :-O There are monastic cookbooks?!?!?! Show me some, please!!! I think this monk studying cooking is awesome. But I always thought the culinary arts had a special place in Church tradition simply because Catholics love to eat. And drink. And dance. Truly, Protestant converts to Catholicism tend to be kinda' shocked at the "looseness" of Catholics until they begin to understand how Catholics view the small pleasures of life!

brandelynmarie Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I like to think about how Jesus cooked breakfast for the apostles on the beach after the Resurrection. :) He made them fresh bread & cooked the fish they had caught over hot coals... Jesus said to them, "Come have breakfast." St. John 21:1-17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Fr. Dominic, "the bread monk," used to have a show on PBS.

Luigi Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Should we make a separate thread about culinary monks? It's interesting, but should it really be in VocSta? Anyway, the Trappist monks of Mepkin Abbey in South Carolina support themselves by growing and selling oyster mushrooms. Here's the link to a page full of recipes, with another three pages connected to it. Mangia bene! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
