Tasty Culinary Education in North Carolina
by BJ Fairfax CulinaryEd Columnist December 17, 2007 History, culinary pleasures, and breathtaking natural beauty combine to create a delightful experience for students of culinary schools in North Carolina. As potential chefs ponder where to enroll in culinary programs, they must consider the overall experience each location provides. In North Carolina, the experience of students of culinary schools is bound to be a great one. Culinary Delights in North Carolina North Carolina has it all: historic highlights, glorious waterfalls, fabulous fall foliage, and--perhaps best of all--dishes that present the best of the South, and coastal fare as well. One of the first things North Carolina culinary school hopefuls may discover is that this state knows how to barbecue, especially where pork is concerned. In eastern North Carolina, students of culinary schools can taste a type of barbecue sauce based on vinegar, while in western North Carolina it's a tomato-based sauce. In Lexington, which is considered the barbecue capital of North Carolina, the barbecue sauce has more of a western flavor. The use of pork in North Carolina doesn't stop at the barbecue, though. North Carolina culinary students may find pork in everything from biscuits with grits to livermush. North Carolina cuisine has much more to offer, however, than well-prepared pork. As a coastal state, North Carolina offers its residents a bounty of fresh fish, too. Fresh oysters, clams, scallops, crabs, and shrimp can be found all along the coast in fishing villages and in the markets of North Carolina. Explore North Carolina In between classes at culinary schools, students of culinary programs can find many wonderful diversions throughout North Carolina. For instance, the Tar Heel State boasts more than 200 waterfalls, and the highest waterfall on the East Coast: Whitewater Falls at 411 feet. North Carolina also is home to more than 1.2 million acres of national forest, and more than 120 types of trees.
