The Sustainable Kitchen

  • Leiths School of Food and Wine 11 Wendell Road London, England, W12 9RS United Kingdom (map)

Are you looking for ways to cook and eat more sustainably at home? Small changes can have a big impact, and this hands-on cookery class will guide you through the simple steps you can take towards creating your very own sustainable kitchen.

Led by experienced chef and food writer, Marcia Barrington, who is a regular contributor to FareShare UK and the Sustainable Food Trust, you’ll gain an invaluable set of top tips ranging from how to reduce food waste, to where to source reliable information about sustainable food systems.

You’ll learn the best practices for using up the odds and ends in your fridge, master how to use fermentation and pickling to create a punchy side-dish out of your leftover vegetables, discover the importance of seasonality and shopping smarter, and learn more about ethical suppliers and sourcing your ingredients.

Guided by Marcia, you’ll cook up a delicious array of sustainable recipes, such as Moroccan goat tagine with a ginger-tahini yoghurt, before sitting down with your classmates to enjoy your impressive, seasonal feast.
