Join ancient food specialist Caroline Nicolay, from Pario Gallico -Historical Food and Crafts- to learn about the utensils, ingredients, recipes and techniques used to prepare everyday meals in celtic Britain (2nd-1st century BC)! 

You will set up in one of our reconstructed houses for the day, discover the basic principles of recreating ancient meals and work together to prepare a communal lunch over the open fire. The ingredients used  would have been available in the area at this time of the year during the Iron Age, the cooking utensils are replicas of ancient ones or close equivalents (pots, cauldron, iron knives, wooden bowls...) and you will cook several dishes to be shared for lunch. We will choose from a selection of things to have a go at such as: make butter by hand, grind grain, make soft cheese and prepare sweet and savoury snacks including cheesy flatbreads and/or honey cakes. 

We try to accommodate everyone, so please do not hesitate to contact Caroline for any questions about allergies and diets. If you have any, you HAVE TO CONTACT CAROLINE at least one week before the course, otherwise we cannot insure that you will be able to eat what is cooked... which would be a shame! 

Examples of what we may be cooking:-

- beef or pork stew with ale, nettles, grains and/or seasonal vegetables 

- Frumenty (wheat or barley risotto with vegetables, cheese, leaves... the participants will choose!)

and/or

- Legumes ''pot'' with lentils, peas, beans and leaves in a fresh herbs broth 

- stewed fruits with a choice of seeds, nuts, berries, cream, honey... 

- Fresh butter

- Fresh cheese (sweet or savoury) 

- Flat or leaven breads (each participant choose their own flavour-mix)

Drinks and snacks will be provided all day, lunch as well. 

Please bring: 

An apron if you need one, a pen and paper if you want to write down recipes and some food containers as you might want to take some of your creations home!
