Basic Stocks and Broths
Discover the starting point of great culinary creations: stock. We will guide you through a detailed understanding of each type of stock, opening up a world of possibilities.
Chef and entrepreneur, founder of Urban Kitchen.
Stock is a fundamental ingredient in many recipes and it is essential that chefs have a good understanding of it when embarking on their culinary journey.
Stock plays a crucial role in creating varied flavors in every dish. From a white stock that brings subtlety and lightness, to a brown stock that infuses richness and depth of flavor into recipes.
In this online course you will learn the same content as a professional cooking student would during their first academic module. Together with Ignacio Barrios, you will immerse yourself in a detailed course about the preparation, storage and use of stock in various recipes. From the exact choice of ingredients, to the cooking and cooling process.
Mastering these concepts will provide you with exceptional creative freedom to explore and customize each dish, adding your own unique and special touch.
At the end of this online course you will be able to:
- Master the preparation of a variety of stock, using different types of ingredients as a base.
- Apply accurate techniques in the selection of ingredients and the preparation process.
- Understand the importance of proper storage to preserve the quality of the stock.
