Butter. What more could there be to learn about butter in our journey through deeper and varied flavours of foods. We made butter last year which was extremely easy and cost effective and produced butter with flavour layers I found. It wasn't just a block of dairy fats lost in the sandwich making or cooking. It had a much more complex flavour than commercial mainstream butter and if I don't have time to make my own I know seek butter from small independent dairies that also have that flavour quality. They also have discernible but tiny flakes of sea salt which sometimes means the butter from one batch is quite different from the next - just as it should be.
We are taking those butters forward into another flavour bank which you may feel now is irrelevant in a busy, modern life. Well, trust me, if you indulge me by making some of these you will be surprised, over time, just how often you look at a finished dish, then there is the lightbulb moment, and it turns out it wasn't finished at all until you make a withdrawal from the flavour bank to finish the job.
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
Gift vouchers are available to buy that may be redeemed against live online workshops or recordings of previous workshops.
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?!
