Best Answer

Some Kitchens use different hats to differentiate The Chef, Sous Chef, Saucier, and cooks from one another. This can include differences in height, colors, and fanciness. The Chef always has the whitest and fanciest and tallest hat. Followed by the sous chef, then the saucier. The rest including the dishwasher will have the smaller less fancy hats.

Some Kitchens have a Chef and a "Head" Chef, these are the Sous chef and Chef. A Chef or Head Chef might have more than one kitchen under his control, thus the Sous chef is in charge in his absence.

What do the folds in a chef hat mean?

The idea was allegedly propagated by the chef for Charles Talleyrand, the first French prime minister. In the early days of French cuisine, the number of pleats were intended to represent the number of recipes a chef had mastered for a given food, like egg or chicken. Having a hat with 100 pleats meant you were a master chef. This also applied to the height of the hat. The taller the toque, the more a chef knew. If you saw a chef with a towering cap, you could be sure they were likely the head of the kitchen.

Why does a chef wear a cap?

The cap in modern times is to prevent hair contaminating food. The origin of the chef hats dates back to the 16th century and they were used to tell the rank and experience of the chef. The higher the hat was, the higher your rank was. So typically the head chef in a kitchen always had the highest hat. The folds in the hat represented the experience of the chef. So, the more experienced s/he was at cooking, the more folds there will be in the hat. Some establishments still use this 16th century hat system on their chefs.
