Le Cordon Bleu London are proud to announce the launch of a 100% Plant-Based programme. The Diploma in Plant-Based Culinary Arts is designed to provide students with a comprehensive course focusing on satisfying, delicious and nutritious cuisines from across the world using fruits, vegetables, roots, herbs, nuts, whole grains, stems, seeds, and natural oils. This will be a 3-month culinary diploma starting in January 2020, with another intake in June 2020. The course was designed to meet the growing demand for vegetarian and plant-based alternatives.
The diploma is perfectly suited for anyone who desires to enter a profession which requires plant-based culinary skills, covering both cuisine and pâtisserie disciplines. The programme will exclude animal products and aims to incorporate a diverse range of ingredients which are naturally available, with heavily processed ingredients avoided within the programme. The pâtisserie recipes will include a range of innovative products which reduce the use of processed sugars.
This all-encompassing course will cover the production of pastries and breads, and the use of a variety of oils and vinegars to create dressings. It will also teach the students how to create non-dairy ice-creams, cheese and egg replacement. It will teach the specific use of different types of seaweeds, grains, leaves and microgreens and nut milks for sweet and savoury use.
