Weekend
Course: The Good Things Culinary World Tour Weekend
Master over a dozen well-known
(and less well-known) dishes from all over the world. Includes
morning coffee, lunch, afternoon tea and supper with a glass of wine. 22nd-23rd
November 2008.
Even though I say so myself this was my best
course last year! All 15 students said so as well and looking back I'm not surprised,
Combining classical recipes from other countries with such great local ingredients
is a recipe for success. A fantastic opportunity to add a bit of international
flavour to your cooking whilst going no further than West Cork. In the course
of two days you will master well over a dozen dishes from all over the world including:
Roasted fish with honey and Lemon from Egypt; Sobronade which is French; Roast
pork cooked in the Danish manner; Crispy Fried Chicken with Chillies and Garlic;
Flatbread and Dahl; Andalusian Monkfish; Mushroom Caviar from Russia: Georgian
Lamb with Plums and Walnuts; Vincisgrassi which comes from Italy; a Seafood Curry
and a selection of tapas from Spain. Finally some puddings such as Roast
figs and plums in Vodka with cardamon cream. Is this enough? If you have anything
special you'd like me to add let me know. Also I will do Friulian apple, walnut
and poppy seed tart, baklava and pistachio ice cream. Phew. Finally, nobody
can leave on Saturday evening until you've eaten all your vegetables and we'll
even give you a glass of wine to help digest it all.
