Postgraduate Diploma in Flavor Design Applied to Gastronomy

Gastronomy is one of the most relevant arts worldwide, its recipes, ingredients, textures, aromas and flavors become a representative symbol of each country. However, over the years this culinary discipline has had significant advances that contribute to create totally innovative quality dishes; therefore, in TECH, the largest digital university in the world, we created a Postgraduate Diploma in Flavor Design Applied to Gastronomy. An online postgraduate specialized in incorporating the most avant-garde techniques of haute cuisine, through an eminently practical, active and participatory educational methodology. With this program you will renew your intellect in a field focused on the panorama of the chemistry of flavors and their sensory relationship. During the course of the postgraduate course, you will acquire a wealth of knowledge about raw materials of natural origin and their application techniques, used as flavor components to purify or improve the tasting sensation of a dish. In addition, you will learn the basic exploration of the evolutionary implications of foods, their taste classification, the exact dosage of flavorings and the main sources of aromatic chemicals in the kitchen.

Be an expert in designing flavors applied to gastronomy.

Throughout the six months of preparation that this intensive Postgraduate Certificate takes, you will have the latest technology in online teaching software and an innovative teaching system supported by the latest generation of graphic and schematic content, which will facilitate the assimilation and understanding of the proposed content. In this way, you will learn from neurogastronomy (neurocognitive patterns), the food matrix and topical techniques for the application of flavorings; to molecular cuisine and its direct and indirect spherification techniques to create foams, liquid nitrogen and gelling. In this way, you will be able to apply laboratory techniques in the preparation of food (appetizers, dishes, desserts and beverages), using the most innovative tools and materials of molecular gastronomy. After completing the Postgraduate Certificate, you will not only be a specialist in proposing new flavors based on culinary research of global market trends, but you will also be able to use neuromodulators in the kitchen to improve the flavor of food and eliminate undesirable notes.
