Lincoln High School – Culinary Arts 1-2: Introduction

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Culinary Arts 1-2 is a year-long course with an emphasis on introductory culinary and baking techniques. Students will learn about ingredients, preparation techniques, and flavor profiles. This course will involve the use of more basic food preparation techniques, as well as menu planning, food-costing and recipe development, writing and modification. Students in this class must participate in two or more volunteer events before or after school per semester. The course will build upon students’ knowledge of safety and sanitation practices by teaching them principles of food storage and handling in the context of restaurants, hotels and other large-volume venues. Advanced Culinary and Baking will further prepare students for life after high school, careers in food production (found in hotels, healthcare facilities and restaurants) and other culinary careers. Working with and the use of all ingredients are a required part of the learning process throughout this course. This is NOT a dairy, gluten or nut-free classroom.
