A warm, aromatic date in the greenhouse with a cooking guru… what more can one ask for!!
Your instructor, Poora William, brings a lifetime of immersion in the use of herbs and spices, having grown up in Sri Lanka and South India, and always one to love cooking. Poora’s passion, sense of humour and meticulous blend of technique and creative intuition are a big part of her teaching method, and students will get to know how to choose fresh or dried herbs/spices for different types of recipes, how to blend a variety of spices, as well as essential techniques for getting the most flavour out of fresh and dried herbs/spices.
All of the recipes Poora will showcase are healthy, make-at-home ready and are naturally gluten and dairy free (or can be easily adapted for these needs). Students will get to sample several dishes that they learn to make during the class (Tamil cooking from southern India and Sri Lanka)… these flavours are incredible!
One other cool thing: many of the special spices showcased in Poora’s cooking come from plants you can grow at home this summer!
