neutral  Francis Lee (X): I think the "delicacy" is what emerges (Köstlichkeit)
3 mins
  -> delicacy = " fineness or daintiness of form, texture, or constitution"
neutral  Louise Mawbey: I agree with Francis - I would think of the food, not the skill.
38 mins
  -> as it stands you are right, but "with great culinary delicacy the chef..." would be readily understandable
