What is The Sous Chef™?

The Sous Chef™ is a complete multimedia culinary arts education resource designed to be used in place of, or as a supplement to, a text-based curriculum. It is a teaching tool that, instead of being printed, is based on Computer-DVD technology. The creation of the Sous Chef™ came from the partnership of a seasoned culinary instructor, a veteran multimedia producer, and a talented computer programmer.

The unique advantage of the Sous Chef™ system is its use of over 340 high-quality videos to teach culinary techniques and principles in an integrated system. Go from slide presentation to video demonstration without changing media resources. Read More >
