Wild Garlic grows naturally in all sorts of places and spreads rapidly - which is great for us as it means there is plenty to be preserved! Be careful though - if you are walking on someone else's land be sure to seek permission to pick before filling your baskets. It is one of the first native plants in the preserving year in the UK and you will always know when to start looking out for it as the articles in magazines and on social media on how to make Wild Garlic Pesto proliferate almost as much as the herb itself.
I have many more ideas on how to save the delicious leaves - and flowers - to use the delicate garlic flavour throughout the year. So keep a lookout for the first signs of the leaves poking through the soil as they don't stay long and get ready for a Wild Garlic Bonanza
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?!
