Basic Cuisine Certificate
Basic Cuisine is a full-time course that opens the door to the mastery of classic French cuisine techniques.
From day one, you'll begin to develop the basic skills: from how to hold a knife properly, peel vegetables and truss a chicken. As the term progresses, techniques become more complex. Students will learn how to use and integrate condiments, herbs, and spices which complement the dishes they prepare. This course provides a solid grounding in basic cuisine techniques and is designed for beginners and experienced cooks alike.
Basic Cuisine is the first step in completing your Diplome de Cuisine.
Please note: applications requiring a visa can close up to 12 weeks before the course start date.
