Platters are a sensible alternative for entertaining. It is so much easier on the host, you have everything ready before your guests arrive, so you don’t miss out on a thing. At the end you have only got one platter to clean down. Presenting the platter is important, we eat with our eyes first so let’s make it look delicious. Class includes all ingredients.
Bring nothing but yourself and an appetite as the platter created will be lunch. A complimentary glass of wine provided.

Three of my favourite things!
Burrata it is a perfect blend of textures. A soft mozzarella shell, encasing a beautiful creamy centre of mozzarella strings and cream or, in my case, homemade mascarpone. Learn to weave and pull the pliable curd till it is silky smooth then form it into a soft pouch before filling it with the stretched curd mixture then sealing the top to form a cheese money bag. The Burrata once made will be enjoyed with crusty bread, tomatoes and basil when in season and served with a complimentary glass of bubbles.Then: Cultured butter made from fresh cream. Some on the butter we will flavour with either garlic, chives or other herbs from the garden, or a little truffle when available/in season.The workshop runs for approximately 2½ hours with plenty of time relax and enjoy your bubbles and cheese. Lunch is included.

Originating from the Ile-de-France region, Brie De Meaux was first created by monks of the priory of Rueil en Brie in the middle ages. In 774 the French Emperor stopped at the priory and discovered the cheese it pleased him so much he asked for regular deliveries to his castle in Aachen. Brie is a beloved soft cheese known for its mild, buttery flavor and creamy texture. Made from cow’s milk, it is typically aged in large wheels or rounds. Beneath its delicate rind lies a smooth, pale yellow interior that becomes perfectly creamy when brought to room temperature. Brie is incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in both savory and sweet dishes. It’s often served as an appetizer alongside bread, crackers, or fruit, and pairs beautifully with white wines like Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, or Champagne. For the best flavor, always let Brie sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving to achieve its ideal, soft, creamy consistency. In my hands-on, 2.5-hour class, you’ll learn the art of crafting your own Double Cream Brie and Camembert from scratch. A delicious, cheese-inspired lunch will also be served, making it a perfect way to enjoy the cheese of kings. Join me and discover just how delightful homemade Brie can be!

Originating from the Ile-de-France region, Brie De Meaux was first created by monks of the priory of Rueil en Brie in the middle ages. In 774 the French Emperor stopped at the priory and discovered the cheese it pleased him so much he asked for regular deliveries to his castle in Aachen. Hence the cheese was known as the king of cheese. This cheese when young can handle strong rich mature reds, it also pairs well with wines that have a slightly nutty flavour. As the cheese matures, chardonnay and bubbles are a good companion.Your nose and palate can tell you a great deal about the flavour and aroma of a cheese. The cheese is best served at room temperature and the wine not to cold. The flavours vary between pleasant, clear, fresh, sweet, sour, while mouldy, grassy, ammonia and even barn like characteristics are found in some cheeses. The different characteristics and aromas come from the type of milk used, how it is made and how it is matured. Want to know more, this 2 hour workshop guarantees to engage the senses. Tastings included.
