Superhuman Abilities are any number of traits that significantly enhance the weilder's culinary prowess to an elite level.
A Superhuman Ability can either be naturally acquired or developed and polished throughout the user's life. In some cases, both.
A chef who possesses a Superhuman Ability uses said ability to develop and augment their cooking techniques. As such, it serves as a chef's signature ability, their very essence.
Characteristics[]
Superhuman Abilities are skills and physical traits that can be used to greatly increase the weilder's potential as a chef and enhance their culinary prowess. A person can either be born with a Superhuman Ability or develop one over time.
Although Superhuman Abilities are extremely powerful assets, they still need to be refined in order to reach their utmost perfection, which in turn leads to cooking that is fundamentally impossible by normal means.
These gifts are extremely rare and only a few chefs have them, even if they can be acquired through extensive training.
