How Do I Make a Chef's Hat Out of Paper?
The chef's hat is not an accessory used simply for appearance; it also has function. The chef's hat keeps his hair covered and away from food, and soaks up sweat from the brow. The hat's height indicates the chef's high rank in the kitchen. A chef's hat is usually made from cotton, but a paper one will suffice for playing cooking games or making a costume.
