My Courses
Principles and practice of identification, comparison, and evaluation of selected foods, ingredients, techniques, and equipment for recipe formulation, menu planning, and preparation. Examination of current trends in the culinary arts field including the use of local seasonal products and the application of scientific techniques to experiment with food preparation. Emphasis on creatively synthesizing food science, visual arts, flavor nuances, management and performance.
In this elective Hospitality Management course, students learn to prepare many styles of candies and bonbons working with advanced confectionery techniques. Although our goal is to produce candies, students learn how they can be applied to plated dessert components. Packaging is an important focus in this class since marketing is a big sales winner.
