Culinary principles, skills and methods are emphasized including knife skills, terminology, principles of meat cookery. Without this demonstrated knowledge cooks and cannot advance in their careers or get to the point where they can demonstrate their cooking ability. Levels II - III are hands-on through our Rouxbe affiliation.
