I am returning to the glorious Glenmore House for An Italian Garden Lunch with Mickey Robertson! What a day it will be! Please read on for Mickey’s description of this special day!
As the lemons dangle temptingly on the tree just outside the kitchen window, and our fingers and toes endure the mid-winter chill, I’ve been daydreaming. As a result I am so very excited to invite you to a celebratory ITALIAN GARDEN LUNCH with ANGELA PALERMO on SATURDAY 23 AUGUST! It’s been several years since our last glorious Italian cooking workshop and feast with Ange which is far too long; and so…with the kitchen garden likely at peak productivity (think wigwams dripping with peas and burgeoning rows of plump things!) and with our hearts and tastebuds leaping and longing for spring, we though it time!
This one will be a little different to the last cooking workshops; and whilst we will get our hands on ingredients enough to require everyone to bring an apron for some collaborative pasta rolling and cooking around the big table in the Dairy (and Ange will answer your every ingredient and making and baking question), we thought to take this opportunity to simply give you a wonderful day out – filled with food and joy, and to celebrate the season as it morphs from deepest winter into spring.
Our feast will be a movable one – beginning in the kitchen garden, where we will wander and taste-test together, as Ange serves morsels of delight…our primo, from a table set under the apple tunnel. Then…we’ll all come inside for pasta rolling and your contribution towards our secondo, which we’ll enjoy along with our contorno and insalata at the long table in the loggia. Hmmm…and then to accompany our dolce and caffè? We have a little surprise…to get your feet tapping, your fingers clicking and perhaps even your hips swaying! Certainly a surprise to put a wide smile on all our contented faces…
And to add to add to the celebratory atmosphere, the food on our table will be held by colourful, handcrafted, artisanal ceramics from the L0 Scoglio Stromboli collection of heritage bowls(and perhaps the instigator of the range will join us – she does love an opportunity to roll pasta!).
