- 15 HOURS
OVERVIEW | START DATES+TUITION | APPLY NOW

overview

Imagine a picnic basket brimming with pâtés and proscuitto…a brunch of sausages and bacon—all created in your own kitchen! Charcuterie, Pâtés & More will immerse you in the age-old art of charcuterie, giving you the skills to make a mélange of meat delicacies yourself in just three short sessions.
Dressed in chef’s whites, you’ll enjoy the same world-class facilities, learn from distinguished Chef-Instructors using the hands-on Total ImmersionSM training method that The FCI is famous for. And, with our intensive approach, getting a taste of life as a charcutier doesn’t have to take a big bite out of your schedule. You'll be amazed how much you'll gain in just 15 class hours, as your Chef-Instructors share the techniques, tips and trade secrets that took them years to learn. As a result of taking Charcuterie, Pâtés & More you will acquire:

  • How to make your own fresh cured bacon, proscuitto, fresh and dry-cured sausages, pâtés, pork rillettes, and duck ham and confit
  • A history of charcuterie, plus pig anatomy and butchery
  • Various methods of salting, smoking, and curing
  • How to work with seasonings, casings, and more
