Cook with soul and intention. Love the people you are cooking for.
One of the most important techniques within Southern Cuisine is to cook with soul and from the heart. Of course, Southern cooking is often referred to as Soul Food, so this course also focuses on storytelling the history and culture of Southern food.

Join our community to help deliver a better food future for all.

The SDG2 Advocacy Hub facilitates the Chefs' Manifesto, a community of 1100+ chefs from 90 countries, equipped with a simple set of actions to drive progress against the food issues that matter most of them. We believe chefs can be powerful advocates for a better food future - inspiring people to make changes in their kitchens and communities and empowering them to call on governments and companies to also play their part. As chefs bridge the gap between farm and fork, the Chefs' Manifesto empowers chefs with a framework tied to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Really loved the course. The chef covered many cooking techniques and included a smattering of history to help in understanding why we use these ingredients and techniques in the South. I look forward to using what I learned to incorporate the course material into my own dishes.
