The course focuses on preservation methods you can do at home: drying, pickling, preserving, infusions, and more. You’ll gain inspiration for using wild ingredients in Nordic-inspired restaurant-style food at home, such as in mocktails, syrups, vinegars, oils, mushroom mayonnaise, snacks, accompaniments for cheese, and small finger foods.
You’ll get to taste several products and learn how to combine simple flavour dishes using the ingredients. Recipes will be provided.
