CLASS DESCRIPTIONS & SCHEDULES
INTRODUCTION
TO CULINARY
Our Introduction to Culinary Community Class offers Bakers with little to no experience in the kitchen an overview of the basics of culinary in an environment that emphasizes learning new skills while also helping to create a product for one of our Invictus micro-enterprises: grain-free sweet potato dog biscuits. Using an individualized teaching method, the latest Microsoft technology, artful modifications, and physical guide templates, the Bakers are eased through the basics of following a recipe, measuring, heating, safety, and sanitation. We challenge our Bakers to build stamina, learn and practice basic culinary skills, and develop the ability to work together as a team to create a high-quality product. The course work curriculum supports job training for eager young chefs (ages 14+) or anyone interested in the culinary arts.
Each two-hour session is an artful blend of customized instruction, learning, and social gathering. We take your simmering passion for food and all things culinary and bring it to a rolling boil in our Invictus Kitchen!
