Culinary School – Are you learning mostly techniques or how to really cook creatively?
I have been a home cook for a long time but I am considering starting my own catering business. Do you learn the techniques of ‘volume cooking’ or are you primarily learning skills you can apply at most restaurants no matter what they type of cuisine they are serving?
Every culinary ciriculum is somewhat different, but in general, you will learn culinary techniques that apply to catering, but not initially.
In my case, we didn’t pick up a knife for the first few weeks (4-year program) but once we moved past food science/economics, food identification, etc. you were in the kitchen or lab 90% and at that point, it was all stuff you would use in catering.
The other person’s recommend about checking out the ciriculum is a good one…I also recommend you call some of your local high-end caterers and ask them what they did, what school, how did they learn the business, etc.
The culinary industry is pretty helpful to people who are looking to get into the business, especially if you are nice and buying them a drink or two while chatting is always a plus!
Good luck…a lot of former classmates (especially female) have moved to having families and doing referral catering as opposed to the grind of the professional kitchen and they for the most part rave about it.
