The Gourmet series of the Living Light Institute includes Ethnic Flavors Cuisine, RawFusion Spa Cuisine and Raw Event Catering. Both Ethnic and RawFusion are recipe development courses. Which means for two weeks each student writes a recipe based on a theme (Latin American) and a food availability list. The next day we vote to see what recipes are chosen to create a 5-course menu (with a side) for that day and we break into teams to prepare the dishes.
