School: Fanshawe College

Program：Artisanal Culinary Arts   

Program Description:

Cooking seasonal food from sustainable sources is not just a trend. It's a viable and responsible way of approaching the culinary arts, living a good life, and doing business the right way.

Fanshawe's one-of-a-kind Artisanal Culinary Arts graduate program will teach students techniques in gardening, fermenting, preserving, butchering, curing, and bread baking, among other things. These methods of preparation are no longer based on necessity, as they once were, but on the modern day need for sustainable efficiency. Our artisanal team of chefs has taken an industrious approach to food, borne out of these modern needs, creating waste-free kitchens and striving to be drivers of innovation in the culinary industry.

Advantages:

Artisanal Culinary Arts is a one-year graduate certificate program that aims to provide an opportunity for students to specialize in an artisanal culinary field; develop a more profound respect for food; and explore the concept of food sovereignty with a sustainable model of agriculture in contrast to Canada's current industrial system of food production. This program will create chefs that have demonstrated a competence in traditional food preparation such as preserving, artisanal baking, and butchery. Students will acquire an expertise in the use of local/sustainable products to create advanced dishes, menus, and recipes.  A theme throughout the program is to promote chefs who appreciate the origins of food, in addition to the hard work and processing methods that affect specific elements like the taste and quality of the finished product.  More importantly, graduates will learn how to share these different attributes with a diverse clientele on both a national and international level.
