Culinary Mathematics

Catalog description

In this class we will learn about mathematics and how they are applied in the culinary arts. Cooking is an art in which the difference between an exquisite dish and one that is not very well prepared is in the correct and accurate measurement of the ingredients, that is, the application of mathematics to carry out the recipe to perfection. We will discover not only the importance of carrying out the measures properly, but also the importance of converting measures from one system to another. Guaranteeing the performance, taste, consistency and cost is extremely related to mathematics. Being able to do accountability, using imperial and metric systems, calculus and algebra in general are qualifications that apply to the business aspect of managing a food establishment.
