Cordon Bleu Cuisine

For more than a century, Cordon Bleu has been the source of French Culinary training, a certain tradition is important in education, but innovation is equally important. Today, Cordon Bleu courses adapt to the changing nature of the industry and education, while respecting its traditional roots.

Historically, the French were the first to codify their cooking techniques, as exemplified by Careme and Escoffier. Today these techniques exist almost unchanged, and once understood and mastered, can be applied to any cuisine.

In all art studies, training provides knowledge, discipline and understanding. No matter how much natural talent exists, a painter must understand his medium and a pianist must master his scales. So must a chef know his technique in order to create. Cordon Bleu provides these important tools, equipping its graduates with the means for success in all areas of the food industry and related fields.

Many students choose to go and pursue Cordon Bleu courses overseas, particularly in the US and France. Why? Because by living, cooking and studying abroad, you are exposed to a rich variety of international cuisine - French, Mediterranean, South American, German, Pan-Pacific and Asian!

For many students, the cross-cultural experience also inspires personal growth and cultural understanding. Students are expected to organize buffets and many schools often have restaurants open to the public allowing their pupils to test their culinary knowledge on awaiting and (often paying!) customers. In doing so, students learn the basics such as silver service as well as the all-important task of cooking!

It is through this personal discovery that students learn to shape their style and repertoire of recipes.
