Course details

It may look and sound strange but mise en place is anything but. This old French culinary term translates as 'everything in its place', meaning no messy workstations and no stress over missing ingredients. We couldn't think of anything worse than being halfway through service and realizing that one of your key ingredients or tools is missing!

In this online course, Alastair McLeod, owner of Al'FreshCo, will teach you about mise en place, a sort of culinary checklist. It's a way of ensuring you have absolutely everything you need, ready to go before service starts. That means having your ingredients measured and prepared, assembling pots and pans, organizing plates and serving pieces, heating ovens, and making sure all necessary equipment is ready to go.

Learn how to keep your kitchen from turning into hell's kitchen with Alastair as he teaches you the effective use of mise en place and shows you how beneficial an organized workstation can be.
