Cooking Classes

Due to the recent government restrictions surrounding social distancing for the COVID-19 pandemic, this class has been scheduled for 4 attendees only. This class will only go ahead pending the phase and restrictions surrounding the COVID-19 virus.

This workshop was originally scheduled for Friday, 8 May and titled ‘A Mother’s Day Special’. It was planned to celebrate being a mum or having a mum with a High Tea workshop where sponge cake & scones plus more would be baked. Well, Mother’s Day is over, but we can still celebrate Mother’s in high tea style! I have changed this class a little – we will still bake scones, however, I will share my love of Italian cakes as well. We will bake a sponge cake, however, it will become a moist panna cotta sponge cake. We will also bake a traditional Calabrese ‘Torta di Mele e Ricotta’ (Apple & Ricotta cake) to showcase glorious winter seasonal apples. It will be a lovely day of baking Italian torte (and scones). There is only one spot left for this class.

This is combined garden and lunch Workshop! I will share with you my very basic knowledge of how to setup a kitchen garden and how to maintain it. We will focus on the autumn/winter garden, and lightly touch on a plan for the spring/summer garden. We will then harvest a few veggies from the kitchen garden to cook  pranzo (lunch) together.

There will be home-style cooking and baking involved, with lots of chatting, laughing and learning along the way. We will then sit outside (alfresco style) together to enjoy the fruits of our labour sampling authentic Italian fare with a glass (or two) of vino.
