Flavour Tool Kit
What would we be without our tastebuds? We are all born with the amazing ability to distinguish quite subtle flavours which make up the decisions about which foods we like and which we reject. At the dawn of time this was life-saving - being able to tell which things were good for us and which meant you had lived a beautiful - but short - life was crucial.
It always amazes me, that even today, in the realms of pressure canning and the self-styled rebels who discard all of the rules devised by scientific examination of processes, state quite firmly 'well I don't do that and I'm still here.' That is not the validation that I want to make my decisions on! We don't hear enough from those whose canning rebellion resulted in them not still being here in my opinion.
However, enough of the culinary equivalent of Russian Roulette, we are going to be exploring preserving a flavour bank that we can make withdrawals from throughout the preserving year to use as ingredients for our preserves and in our everyday cooking. You don't have to make them all, just pick and choose those that appeal and then continue exploration into the areas that interest you.
Our Workshops are friendly, no experience of cooking or preserving is necessary and we try to use everyday, familiar equipment. You can cook along with the Live Workshop or use the recording which will be place in The Library of the School soon after the Workshop finishes
So, take advantage of the block booking discounts to access all of the Season's Workshops with the security of knowing you won't miss anything.
We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to our preserving family

I've thoroughly enjoyed your workshops over the last year and have learnt so much about preserving - there's a whole world out there, not just jams! Your warm and friendly approach is greatly appreciated, and you answer all our questions with endless patience. Thanks for giving me the confidence to experiment - as you say, what could go wrong?!
