Escoffier Resources

I am excited to share that Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts is providing High Schools across the nation with FREE e-learning content to enhance students’ learning experience. Escoffier is a leader in professional online and campus-based culinary education, with over 4,200 students nationwide. Escoffier is proud to share videos, recipe cards and assessment tools from their curriculum to complement your teaching and assist with measurement and grading. A sample of the content includes:

  • Sanitation
  • Knife Skills and Mise En Place
  • Vegetable Cookery
  • Soups and Stocks
  • Protein Cookery

In order to access your teaching content, please contact Chef Steve Harden at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Steve will be able to assist by providing access to a content link.
