Essential oils are distilled from the leaves, stems, roots, or flowers of plants and can be used in place of herbs, spices and flavoring agents to enhance the flavor and aroma of recipes. This course will look at how therapeutic-grade oils can increase the nutritional value of your meals. Because they are extremely pungent and powerful, you will be guided in how to incorporate them into items such as Ice Cream, Salad Dressings, Desserts and Beverages.
