Profile Information

Hometown:: Los Angeles

About Me:: Ditesia (TC) Johnson
Bio information
Originally from Los Angeles, California my love for cooking and food started there.
Keeping it simple! Keeping it real! That’s my motto!
Infused American Foods describes my style of cooking.
I like to take simple home recipes and infuse them different flavors from around the world.
25 Years of experience as a Chef/Caterer.
To me grilling and slow baked meats are my favorites.
Ribs, brisket, pulled pork, chicken, and pork chops are my most requested items.
Specializing in Dry Rubs and marinates for grilled and slow baked meats.
The list of foods is endless… burgers, soups and chilis, and you never know what you might find
in an egg roll or won ton from traditional to sweet!

How would I describe the desserts that I do?
Three words……….AWESOME! YUMMY! WONDERFUL!
I like the old school desserts such as Banana Pudding, Sweet Potato Pie, Peach Pie and Cheesecake.
BUT……hold on…..I also have some creations of my own like Fried Banana Sundae,
Raspberry Zinger Cake, Vanilla Bean Mousse, and my version of French Silk Pie just to name a few.

Having a strong work ethic I work well with others.
I am lovable, caring, comical and energetic!

My skills are endless and I’m always ready to learn!
That’s what makes me thrive to create better looking and most of all better tasting food.

I would be willing to relocate and seasonal jobs are an option as well.
