Up Your Cooking Confidence. Unleash Your Culinary Creativity. Create Your Own Recipes.
In Chef Jacob's ground breaking instructional, you'll skip years of trial and error, instead learning the five first principals of cooking; Flavor, Sauce, Technique, Execution, and Preparation (F-STEP).
Once understood, the five fundamental F-STEPs will serve as your lens on the culinary world, allowing you to quickly dissect and deeply understand the basic building blocks of any recipe, dish, or cuisine. It is with these building blocks that you will create your own unique culinary style, so you can stop following recipes, and start creating!
In the first section, F is for Flavor, you'll learn:
How to create balanced flavor structures that take your cooking to the next level.
How to balance salty, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and fatty components.
The proper use of umami to enhance the deliciousness of your dish.
How to avoid palate fatigue while creating "flavor punches" and "interruptions."
How to choose high quality, primary ingredients and enhance them with secondary flavor profiles.
In the Sauce Section, you'll learn:
How to create any sauce you could ever imagine using the Three Modern Mother Sauces!
I know that sounds like a bold claim, but it really isn't. Once you understand the flavor concepts outlined in the first section of this curriculum, making your own unique sauce is as simple as painting flavor structure over technique. And the best part is, there are only three techniques you'll use to create any sauce; reduction, emulsification, and puree.
Once the best practices and scientific principals for these techniques (The Three Modern Mother Sauces) are understood, you simply start painting flavor structure over the top to create any number of delicious sauces.
In the Technique Section you'll learn:
How to choose the proper cooking technique for meats, seafood, and vegetables, allowing you to get great results no matter what you cook.
A break down of all the major cooking techniques, the science that makes them work, and their best practices.
After completing this section, you'll be able to pick a primary ingredient, build a delicious flavor structure around it, enhance it with a creative sauce, and apply the appropriate cooking technique to achieve the best possible result.
In the Execution Section, you'll learn how to avoid common stumbling blocks that can take your dish from inspired to disastrous.
In fact, execution is the most common failure point for both home cooks and professionals alike. You see, you can have delicious, high end ingredients and a kitchen full of expensive cookware, but if you can't execute your dish, then nothing else matters.
Finally, in the Preparation Section of the F-STEP curriculum, you'll learn important prep techniques to set you up for success, including blanching, brines, and marinades.
