Whether you‘ve had to adapt your diet due to an intolerance, or you simply want to explore the amazing alternatives available to you, this one day workshop is a comprehensive introduction to gluten free and dairy free ingredients, including tips on adapting and altering traditional recipes.

The class will be a combination of informative demonstrations and hands-on cookery guided by Leiths chefs. You will cook a deliciously, moist and impressive sweet potato & buckwheat flat bread which is bursting with sunflower seeds. Followed by a coconut flour and almond pastry; used to create a broccoli, leek and prosciutto tart.

You will also make a batch of sesame oat cakes, excellent accompaniments to any cheese board or great as a lunchtime cracker.

As a substitute to the 'classic wrap' you will discover how to make fermented teff/chickpea pancakes, which can be enjoyed straightaway with your favourite filling, we love spiced red lentils or perhaps avocado and salsa! If you prefer you can leave them to ferment for a couple of days which gives them a deeper flavour, and is also great for digestive health.

The final dish of the day is a show stopping Strawberry cheesecake, with a creamy cashew nut filling, and strawberry sauce.

Class structure

Cooking with your classmates is an integral part of your Leiths experience. You will cook some of your recipes in pairs, and some independently – whatever the ratio, there is always more than enough food, and often food to take home too.

Your evening will comprise of a mixture of hands on cookery and demonstrations performed by the chef who is running the session. The exact format will vary from class to class depending on the style of cuisine and, in the case of visiting chefs, their individual teaching style.

Unless otherwise stated, you will be eating the food that you have cooked during your class for lunch, usually with wine or elderflower cordial around a communal table. If your class does not involve cooking lunch you will enjoy delicious sharing platters prepared by the school.
