Original title: What are the requirements for the "kitchen god" in the hot pot industry?
There's nothing that a hot pot can't solve. "The chef in charge of hot pot cooking can be described as the "chef god" of the hot pot industry, and in 2022, it was established as a new type of work.
In February this year, the General Office of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the General Office of the Ministry of Commerce jointly promulgated the national occupational standards for Chinese cooks (hot pot cooks), marking the official approval of the national standard for hot pot cooks.
Occupation Definition and Rank
According to the national occupational standard document released this time, Chinese cooks (hot pot cooks) refer to those who are engaged in the production of hot pot bases, soups, sauces, dipping sauces, food processing, and dish prefabrication, and have certain catering operation and management capabilities.
There are five levels of this profession, namely Level 5 Junior Worker, Level 4 Intermediate Worker, ** Senior Worker, Level 2 Technician, and Level 1 Senior Technician.
It is noted that the document clarifies that the basic knowledge that practitioners need to master includes hot pot raw materials, hot pot cooking, hot pot operation and management, safety and environmental protection knowledge, and relevant laws and regulations.
Vocational skills evaluation requirements
The evaluation method of this profession is divided into theoretical knowledge examination, operational skills assessment and comprehensive evaluation.
The theoretical knowledge test mainly assesses the basic requirements and related knowledge requirements that practitioners should master to engage in their profession; The operation skills assessment is mainly carried out by means of on-site operation and simulated operation, which mainly assesses the skill level that practitioners should have in their professions; The comprehensive assessment is mainly for second-level technicians and first-level senior technicians.
The theoretical knowledge test, operational skills assessment and comprehensive evaluation are all implemented on a 100-point system, and the score is 60 points or more to pass.
In the "Occupational Classification Dictionary of the People's Republic of China (2022 Edition)" issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, hot pot chef has become a new type of work under the profession of Chinese cook.
In February 2023, the kick-off meeting for the compilation of national professional skill standards for hot pot chefs was held.

The compilation of standards was launched in February last year
According to Xinhua News Agency, according to the deployment of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the Chongqing Vocational Skills Appraisal and Guidance Center took the lead, and jointly with the Chongqing Hot Pot Industry Association, a compilation team composed of senior experts in the national hot pot industry will fully launch the compilation of national occupational standards for hot pot cooks in February 2023.
Wang Xiaobing, a researcher from the Vocational Skills Appraisal Center of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, emphasized at the kick-off meeting for the compilation of national vocational skill standards for hot pot chefs that the compilation of standards must follow the principles of integrity, hierarchy, standardization, practicability and operability.
Universal and national keywords
Wang Xiaobing also stressed that the compilation of standards should be based on China and look at the world, and should reflect the overall situation and level of the current professional activities in China, not only highlighting the mainstream technology and main skill requirements of hot pot chefs, but also taking into account the possible differences between different regions or industries, and should be universal, while considering its future development.
Li Jianfeng, deputy secretary-general of the China Hotel Association, said that the professional standard of hot pot must be oriented to the whole country, not limited to one place and one region, and should be eclectic and inclusive. The new occupational standard of "hot pot chef" should cover the main domestic hot pot categories, such as Sichuan-Chongqing spicy hot pot, northern copper pot shabu-shabu hot pot, Guangdong Chaoshan beef hot pot, etc., to be a "hot pot standard" that truly belongs to the country.
It is conducive to ensuring food safety
Just after the announcement of the new job of hot pot chef, Wang Wenjun, vice president of the Chongqing Hot Pot Association, mentioned in an interview with Xinhua News Agency that the standards of the hot pot industry were uneven in the past, such as the control of oil temperature, and different people had different practices. Improper oil temperature will not only affect the taste of the base, but also endanger the health of diners.
He also said, "After the emergence of the new type of work, the Chongqing Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, together with the Municipal Commission of Commerce, will actively strive for the development qualification of the national occupational standard of 'hot pot cook', which is conducive to the standardized management of the industry and ensuring people's food safety." ”
Support the cultivation of industrial talents
According to Xinhua News Agency, the promulgation and implementation of the national occupational standards for hot pot cooks has filled the gap that there is no standard basis for the training of skilled talents in the hot pot industry, and will build a channel for practitioners to be promoted from ordinary workers to professional and skilled talents, and will help improve the quality of hot pot products and increase the efficiency of industrial development.
CCTV mentioned in the report that the successful development of the national standard of the profession has achieved a breakthrough in the development of the "national standard" of Chongqing's occupational standard, which is a vivid practice of the construction of Chongqing's occupational standard system and provides key support for the training of skilled talents in the national hot pot industry.
In the process of formulating national occupational standards, hot pot cooking practitioners from all over the country are also shining through various competitions, skills training, special vocational ability certificates and other ways.
