Florida Culinary Education: Hook, Line and Sinker
by BJ Fairfax CulinaryEd Columnist December 24, 2007 The seafood section of a restaurant's menu is sure to draw many orders, especially in coastal areas where ingredients are the freshest. In Florida, a peninsula state that's surrounded by water on all three sides, one can imagine just how fresh, available, and diverse the bounty of seafood is in this southeastern state. For future culinary students who wish to explore ocean-based cuisine, it would be wise to investigate Florida culinary schools. Florida's Culinary Bounty Florida culinary students have the advantage of living in a state where fresh seafood is easy to come by, and the wide array of catches available is nearly unmatched. Taste the rainbow of creations that come from the sea. When it comes to purchasing, preparing, and eating fish in Florida, there are plenty of catches to pick from. Of course, the peninsula state reels in a lot of traditional favorites, including mahi mahi, Blue Crab (served in either hard or soft-shell form), catfish, mussels, oysters, rock shrimp, scallops, sea bass, trout, and much more. However, Florida culinary students may be interested in the more unusual, fresh catches offered up locally. Whether inside the classrooms of culinary programs or in dining rooms throughout the state, culinary students will likely be introduced to quite an array of new seafood. This may include amberjack, Apalachiola oysters, conch, turtle, Florida lobster, Key West pink shrimp, and other area favorites. If you are a prospective chef who seeks intimate knowledge of and experience with a wide variety of seafood, consider attending one of the Florida’s excellent culinary schools.
