Join us for a half day masterclass in Farm to Fire cooking.
Chefs Jaret, Mona and the Tournant team will be demonstrating their signature cooking techniques in a hands-on workshop around a series of wood fires at Bella Luna Farms in Snohomish, WA, just outside of Seattle. The farm is nestled into 12 thriving acres and is home to extensive vegetable and herb gardens, an apiary, chickens and goats, plus a farmstead creamery.
This half day workshop is for cooks of all levels who love food and cooking and are curious about the basics of building and combining flavors, cooking with the seasons and surroundings, and mastering open fire cooking techniques such as cooking in the embers, grilling, cast iron cooking and wood-oven roasting.
The omnivore menu will be prepared together around the flames, incorporating produce and cheeses from the farm. There will be plenty of fire snacks throughout the day, then a meal shared as a communal feast. Lucky us, Bella Luna has a wood burning oven on the farm, so guests will learn how to make pizza and other wood oven roasted goodies in addition to other fire cooking fundamentals. Come learn this ancient tradition with us!
Attendees will receive additional itinerary details as the workshop date draws near. In the meantime, enjoy these pictures of beautiful Bella Luna Farms below:
