This gives the opportunity to experience, consider and value every section with a view to choosing an area where you feel most inspired.
You will cover a wide range of food preparation and cooking including: fish, shellfish, meat, poultry, game, offal, vegetables, sauces, stock, soup, rice, pasta/noodles, vegetable protein, bread and dough, pastry, cakes, sponges, biscuits, scones, cold and hot desserts.
