Sous-Vide Training at CREA

Receive your training from Cuisine Solutions, the sous-vide authority. Culinary stars such as Jean-George Vongerichten, Thomas Keller and Daniel Boulud have all learned the art of sous-vide from CREA (Centre de Recherche et d’Etudes pour l’Alimentation, or “Culinary Research and Education Academy”).

To bring this innovative technique into your kitchen, attend our informative three-day seminar. These sessions offer technical instruction and hands-on assignments to give you a comprehensive sous-vide education.

  • How to choose, calibrate and maintain the right equipment for your kitchen
  • Hands-on training and experimentation

I love research and teaching. When I train great chefs, I learn from them, too.
