SORRY, HALLOWEEN. Our pumpkins have other plans.
WORKSHOP: AUTUMN ON YOUR PLATE. Seasonal food, health and cooking.
“At Masia Escrigas, when autumn arrives, pumpkins don’t turn into monsters.
We’ll pick them from the garden, discover all their benefits, learn how to cook them and enjoy tasting them.
I’m passionate about quality ingredients and healthy, practical and simple food. That’s why we’ve organised this workshop, which I’m sure will make a real difference in your lives.
Less trick or treat. More farm to table.”
Laura Casanova (Candyliving)
Pumpkins, sweet potatoes, mushrooms, chestnuts, pomegranates, persimmons, walnuts… Each season brings us different foods, but do we really know why they become available at this timeof year and how they benefit our health?
At Tardo al Plat (Autumn on Your Plate), we’ll discover that eating healthily doesn’t mean spending hours in the kitchen or giving up flavour and the pleasure of eating. Because looking after ourselves can also be easy, delicious and fun!
This workshop will be lead by Ruth Magem, a registered dietitian and chef with over 15 years of experience, specializing in bringing together nutrition, gastronomy and well-being.
Her approach to cooking combines the pleasure of eating with well-being focusing on quality ingredients, simple recipes and practical solutions for everyday life.
During the workshop…
We’ll discover some interesting facts and learn why eating seasonal produce is a lovely and natural way to connect our diet with the time of year we’re experiencing. It’s also more affordable!
We’ll prepare 3 healthy , easy and delicious recipes, perfect for everyday life, as you’ll have them ready in just 3 to 10 minutes! And the best part? You won’t even have to peel the pumpkin! Because eating seasonal produce can be much easier than it seems… and at Masia Escrigas, we’ll show you how.
After the workshop…
We have one last surprise.
The workshop coincides with one of our favourite moments of autumn at Masia Escrigas: harvesting the pumpkins from our own garden.
So, when the workshop ends, we’ll head out to the garden. You’ll be able to stroll among the pumpkin plants, choose your ow pumpkin, pick it and take it home with you.
A pumpkin grow right here, ready to be turned into a delicious soup, roasted in the oven or displayed proudly on your autumn table.
