Sous Chef

Per wikipedia: The sous-chef de cuisine (under-chef of the kitchen) is the direct assistant of the executive chef, and is second in command. This person may be responsible for scheduling and substituting when the executive chef is off-duty. The sous-chef will also fill in for or assist the chef de partie (line cook) when needed. Smaller operations may not have a sous-chef, while larger operations may have several.

Ben is most certainly the 'executive chef' in our kitchen. Betsy has decided she wants to be Daddy's little helper in the kitchen, so she has earned the title of sous chef. Today she stirred and measured and made (pretend) cupcakes.

If I had a title in the kitchen it would be the taste-tester.
