Seasonal Feasts is a four-part event program focusing on sustainable cooking practices. This year we will be tackling topics like meal planning, fermenting and pickling, low waste cooking, and how to love your leftovers. Discover the benefits of using local, seasonal ingredients, reducing food waste, and transitioning to energy-efficient induction cooking. 

Join us for a live cooking demonstration, with delicious tastings, and gain practical tips and tricks for a more sustainable kitchen.

This workshop is all about Loving Leftovers.

Even with the best planning and most honourable intentions, leftovers can be inevitable. One of the easiest things to do with leftovers is to divvy them up into lunchboxes straight from the pan, but perhaps you’re not a leftovers for lunch kind of family. Do not fret, there are many options available.

Summer can be the trickiest season to use up leftovers with fresh salad vegetables not lending themselves most favourably to saving, but with a little forethought, even they can live another day.

What you will learn:

  • How to prevent the wilt – eat, store, cook, freeze, pickle, ferment
  • Reviving the wilted for another day
  • An in-depth look at leftover recipe ideas – versatile recipes that carry sad or pre-cooked fruit and vegetables
  • A deep dive into converting mundane leftovers into magical meals
