I’ve been taking the Rouxbe Cooking School Plant-Based Professional Certification course for the past five months. Here are some thoughts and what I’ve been up to!
Rouxbe Online Cooking School: A Great Experience!
My last five months as a student enrolled in Rouxbe’s Plant-Based Professional Certification Course has been an incredible journey. I have enjoyed every single task, live interactive event, and even the stumbles and mistakes I’ve made along they way. All of these things combined have created the countless aha moments. It’s improved and enhanced the way I plan, prep, cook and move around in my own kitchen.
Cooking for me has always been and is a largely solitary activity. It’s been so helpful that I can cook in my own kitchen at my own pace. No stress, no pressure!
Being virtually among other like-minded students via Rouxbe’s student community discussion and chef support forums has been so cool! Attending the regularly scheduled, live Q&As with chef instructors Chad Sarno and Ken Rubin (and sometimes other subject matter experts) is always so helpful. I love that Rouxbe’s online format offers and fosters both an interactive and independent feel.

So with the course coming to an end by next month, I’m having lots of mixed feelings about it! On one hand, I am excited to graduate. On the other hand, I am going to miss the ritual of hopping on to my laptop to study and cook. Receiving constructive feedback from Rouxbe instructors has been so nice as well.
The support and expertise available at Rouxbe so far has been incredible. It’s been a huge motivator to give each task the most care and attention to detail as possible.
From learning about and making raw desserts to rolling out and cutting homemade udon noodles to developing a good pho broth, it’s been so fun. I’m doing things at Rouxbe I’ve always wanted to try, but never quite had the push, resource or guidance to fully figure out and understand the how and why behind it. Although it’s always great to dive into learning something on your own, it’s immensely more successful with expert, comprehensive and consistent support behind it.
Rouxbe Online Cooking School: My Review and Opinions
To see more examples of some of the unit task coursework, check out my Rouxbe board on Pinterest as well as my previous Rouxbe blog posts. Each cooking task has been a lot of fun to plan, make, shoot (and eat!!) Most of the dishes I’ve made at Rouxbe have become some of the best meals we’ve had at home!
This self-paced, online course teaches culinary methods and techniques that can be used as a foundation for cooking more intuitively, creatively and confidently in your own kitchen.
Rouxbe generously waived my tuition in exchange for blogging about my experience and sharing my honest opinions about their Plant-Based Professional Certification Course.
