Whether Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter, foraging for wild food never goes out of season. Our fields, woods, hedgerows and parks are rich with delicious wild food, hiding in plain sight to those who know what to look for, in both rural and urban areas. Unsurprisingly, locally foraged foods have been an important part of Myrtle Allen’s menu at Ballymaloe House for over 40 years.
This one day course can literally be life changing as it teaches you how to identify and enjoy nature’s treasures: free ingredients that are fresher, tastier and much more nutritious than virtually anything you will ever find in the shops. This course is suitable for professional chefs, home cooks, keen foragers or anyone wanting to learn about sourcing and cooking with wild food for sheer pleasure.
“Darina is a wealth of knowledge and she shares it openly and willingly on this really great course. I learned a huge amount, we were well taken care of, the food was gorgeous, the demonstrations were great and the staff were terrific. It was my first experience of the Cookery School and I'm sure it will not be the last!” Student feedback
