If you've often wondered how charcuterie meats are made - and think you'd be a bit of a dab hand at it yourself - then now's your chance to learn all about charcuterie techniques, as well as creating your very own bespoke cure and enjoying a cold cut lunch at the Bray Cured New British Charcuterie's HQ in Bray, Berkshire. On this half day workshop, you'll see how the finest British charcuterie, sourced from meat from rare heritage breeds and made with a lot of love and passion in small batches, is made. And this family run charcuterie are one of the best to learn such a centuries old form of food preservation and curing from, as they have a mantelpiece bulging with Great Taste Awards, awarded and recognised by the Guild of Fine Foods - so you are learning not only from a team who are passionate about producing the finest British charcuterie, but are also the best producers in their field. Your workshop, which is run in small groups of no more than six, will be very hands-on, as the team will invite you to get as involved as possible with the curing process, utilising both traditional and innovative new techniques, where you will be producing either Duck, Sausage or Chorizo & Salami charcuteries. And of course, you'll also get to taste the fruits of all your labours, as you'll all get to enjoy a tasty lunch of all the delicious treats you've helped to produce in-house. It's not often that a cookery lesson and tasting session are combined into one experience, so if this sounds like the idea of meat loving you's heaven, why not book onto the course today?
