4. Fully equipped professional
kitchen
The Deliciously Raw Kitchen has all the latest equipment you would expect to find in a professional raw food kitchen such as masticating juicers, high speed blenders, dehydrators, a thermomix, food processors, cold-smoking gun, chamber vacuum sealer, immersion blenders, sous vide, anti-griddle, ice cream makers, paco-jet and slicing tools such as mandolins and turning sheet slicers. It can be useful to experience the equipment to discover what is really necessary before you invest.
5. Practical classes underpinned by
culinary theory
Whilst raw plant-based cuisine breaks the mould in terms of how food is created, we use common reference points that you would find in classical cookery to enable you to gain a deeper understanding of the science behind raw food preparation. Courses take a structured approach enabling you to build your knowledge and with confidence. Through the course programme you have the opportunity to produce raw food to an advanced level and create and adapt recipes of your own.
Deliciously Raw Kitchen emphasises the use of quality organic fresh nutritious ingredients combined with teaching you the skills to be able to prepare them well.
We have a wide pantry of rare condiments and seasonings for you to experience. We are able to source some pretty amazing ingredients.
We are lucky to have some fabulous organic market gardens in our area.
Depending on the time of year, there may be produce in our veggie beds, herbs and edible flowers in the garden. There is also food that can be foraged from the surrounding woodlands.
