Is mastering mussels: FROM GOOD TO GOURMET right for me?  

  • This is the perfect course for the home cook who understands the basic techniques of French cooking as well as newcomers to French cooking. The course explains charcuterie techniques and recipes in a simple way that makes it easy for anyone to follow.

  • No. This is a course that teaches unique content not covered in any of our other courses. In fact, it's difficult to find online content that teaches authentic French charcuterie techniques anywhere online.

  • The great news is that you should already have most of what you will need to make delicious bistro charcuterie. Things like knives, chopping boards, crockery, pots and pans are staple utensils in the home kitchen. However, there are a few necessary items that you may need to source if you do not already have them in your kitchen. Things like a terrine dish, a pâté en croute mould and food thermometer with a probe. There is a list of specific equipment required to make bistro charcuterie included in the course.

  • This course is completely self-paced so you can take as long as you like. 

  • Of course! If you find that the course is not for you within 14 days of purchase, just let us know via email and we will give you a full refund, no questions asked.
