What new recipes and ingredients will I learn in culinary arts?

I never graduated in high school but I'm trying to work on that, but my favorite classes in high school were math, and science so I hope I'm able to apply that to certain measurements in culinary arts

Beverly’s Answer

Hi Thomas,
First, I am happy to learn you are working on completing your high school diploma. Once you do this I suggest you look into a local community college to begin your education in culinary arts.
As far as ingredients and recipes, are you cooking now? Are you shopping in supermarkets and specialty stores to look at various ingredients for different types of cuisines? You can do this now. Being curious and creative are important traits, especially in cooking. Check out cookbooks at your library to see the different areas and cultures in cooking. Try some recipes now! Eat at different restaurants to taste foods.
Best wishes to you in your journey toward culinary arts! Bon appetit!

Math and science are like two friendly ingredients in every recipe you cook. If you're aiming to be a kitchen superstar, you'll find yourself frequently using measurements and controlling portions. And guess what? It's a whole lot of fun!

Maximus’s Answer

Like with any subject, it's a universe. I would focus on developing knife skills first and foremost. Get comfortable with it. The best advice I can give you is to get a restaurant job and learn from those around you. You can practice at home but in the field you can absorb so much more. By doing that you can see if you find a passion in the professional field or as a hobby. I wish you the best and thank you for your question.

Tom’s Answer

Hi Thomas, this is one that cant have a straightforward answer. I say this because each culinary school has their own training programs rather its a diploma program, associates or higher. In most culinary schools you should get a similar training with classes such as culinary foundations and world cuisines that will not only introduce you to ingredients you may have never used or cooked with, but also learn different dishes from around the globe and different cooking techniques. If you decide to attend one, do some research first and possibly request a pamphlet from various ones that catch your eye and see which one would be the best fit for you, best of luck!
