Culinary 110

Basic cooking techniques and skills

We’re 2 Months In…

I began my culinary journey on August 17th 2009, and I am loving every minute of it! My days begin at 4:30 am, traffic in LA is horrendous and I currently live about 20 minutes away from school, and class starts at 6 am in lovely Pasadena, CA. Every day is begins with a demo and lecture of what’s to come for production, and then we’re off a cookin! Cul 110 was Intro 1 where we learned basics such as mother Sauces, daughter sauces, and basic cooking techniques. Cul 130 was Intro 2 where we took our skills to the next level. They introduced windows that we had to hit, and the level of intensity went up dramatically. Currently I am in Baking 110, which is super fun.  So follow me through my culinary journey, the ups and downs of it all!
