Melusine Vegan Diploma 2, France

Melusine Diploma 2 is an intensive 10-day course that covers all aspects of vegan cooking and will deepen your understanding of ingredients, techniques and flavours.

It is ideal for aspiring chefs seeking vegan training - the knowledge gained can be used to help launch yourself into the food industry, just as many Demuths Vegan Diploma Alumni have done.

But you don’t have to be doing the course for professional reasons – if you are a keen foodie and a confident home cook wishing to broaden their technical knowledge and perfect your skills, then this course is also perfect for you.

Over the 2 weeks, you will:

• Cover fundamental stocks and sauces
• Learn how to use vegan ingredients in a variety of ways
• Learn about fermentation and how to make nut cheeses
• Use locally sourced produce to create fresh seasonal dishes
• Learn to make fresh pasta, enriched doughs, vegan pastries and desserts
• Apply techniques to different world cuisines, learning different spicing techniques
• Perfect knife skills and preparation techniques
• Learn plating techniques for beautifully presented dishes
• Receive useful information for a healthy vegan lifestyle and in-depth nutritional information on a plant-based diet
• Leave with a full recipe pack plus a glossary of ingredients and techniques

It is designed as a follow-on course for those that have completed Melusine Diploma 1 but can also be taken as a stand-alone course, depending on your experience.

This course will set you up to continue on to Melusine Diploma 3. Find out more about Melusine here.
