Content of the Master’s Degree in Gastronomic Re-evolution and Avant-gardism

Kitchen

This block provides a complete understanding of the fundamentals of gastronomy, as well as the techniques and creative tools that have led to its evolution.

From a classic perspective of traditional stocks, juices, sauces, stir-fries and stews, to those approaches that set trends worldwide: contemporary tapas, Japanese cuisine, Peruvian cuisine, Nikkei cuisine, Mexican cuisine, fusion cuisine, signature cuisine, classic techniques, technification of classicism, re-evolutionary cuisine, restaurant desserts, etc.

Re-evolutionary Cuisine

Change has come to high-value gastronomic kitchens around the world thanks to research.

Ingredients that used to go unnoticed are now taking center stage and are leading to an evolution with a lot of development ahead.

The garnishes also come to stardom, and the staging becomes a fundamental part of each menu, where the customer is a participant and main actor.

Management and staging

The purpose of this block is for you to master the management tools applied to gastronomy and cooking processes for a more efficient organization.

Students will be able to anticipate the main trends to design a successful gastronomic concept: service and the dining room will take center stage, and the essential and inestimable value of the waiter in our proposal will be vindicated. Nor should we lose sight of beverages: wines, spirits, cocktails and coffees are a fundamental part of the gastronomic business.

Master’s thesis

The Master’s thesis will allow you to put into practice all the knowledge acquired by presenting a personal gastronomic proposal, adapted to current market trends. This project is an exercise of integration of all the contents received.

Practices

In the gastronomic field, the practical aspect is of vital importance. In your internship, you will apply all your knowledge in a real work situation, which will enable you to enter the labor market.

You will develop your skills and experience professional practice, without forgetting that you will come into contact with companies related to your training, thus improving your insertion in the labor market and favoring your employability.
