Culinary Arts Workshop at HCCC Culinary Arts Institute: "Slow Cooking"
6:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Tuition: $50. Class held at the Hudson County Community College Culinary Arts Institute. Click here to download the full schedule of community education classes.
All the top chefs in the world are doing it: cooking foods at extremely low temperatures - and sometimes over extremely long periods of time. Often these foods are cooked in a vacuum (known as sous vide) and have not been widely accepted in the United States due to the dangers of botulism. This course examines how, why, and what these chefs are cooking and how this relates to the principles of HACCP or Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point. Class is limited to 12 students.
