Level One Recipe Specifications

Recipe Specs, as they are known, will teach students how to analyze a recipe according to a recipe goal. Students will learn to analyze and identify ‘watch points’ during the dish’s preparation that may influence the result upon plating. Recipes that best illustrate the weekly method of cooking are pre-selected, and students are required to submit written specifications on these recipes and on the cooking method itself. This exercise is the foundation for Level Two Restaurant Labs, where the same approach is used to understand a full menu and its execution.
