Course overview
Course description
Food is a great tool to bring people together, and the act of preparing it—be it cooking or baking—is an art form that many wish to master. Yet, entering the kitchen isn't always as intuitive as one might expect. While it's a space brimming with potential, it's also a domain where skill, knowledge, and passion intersect.
Our course is designed for beginners and those looking to explore culinary techniques. From understanding the foundational differences between cooking and baking to understanding the art of meal planning, this course introduces you to the beginnings of your cooking journey.
We look at familiarising yourself with essential tools and gadgets. From the simple chef's knife to specialised bakeware, we'll explore the instruments that make a kitchen functional. Decode the culinary lingo. Terms like 'braise', 'sauté', or 'julienne' will no longer be a mystery.
Grasp the language of baking. Understand what it truly means to 'fold', 'cream', or 'proof' in the baking context.
Appreciate the role of fresh produce and ingredients. Learn to select, store, and utilise them to maximise flavours.
The sessions will be varied, with both sweet and savoury dishes, and you can ask any questions as we go along. All the recipes and what you need will be put in Canvas, our virtual learning classroom.
