The River Cottage Cooking Diploma: Next Level
Collection of 12 courses
Expert outdoor chef, and River Cottage tutor Gill Meller show you how to cook over fire - this course goes far beyond a BBQ cooking course!
Gill will teach you how to cook fresh fish on the beach, how to create and cook meat using a spit and inspire you with new recipes for cooking wood-fired veg. You'll also learn how to build a wood fire, cook with fire safely and how to extinguish a fire once you've finished cooking.
Fish recipes include scallops cooked in their shells, smoked fish cooked using a wooden plank on the beach, clay baked trout with lemon and dill. Gill then demonstrates vegetable recipes including a favourite brunch dish - mushrooms with sage and fried eggs and how to char brassicas to make the most of their wood-fired flavours.
The final lessons will teach you how to go the whole hog (roast). Gill will show you how to create your own wood-fire spit, guiding you through the entire process, from cooking over fire, right through to carving and having a celebratory hog roast party.
This course has been approved by the Independent Cookery Schools Association (ICSA), recognising the highest standards of training.
Every student is different but in general we think the whole course will take around 13 hours 40 minutes to complete including:
Your lesson notes will include the full details of the ingredients you'll need, but you will be making a fire, and using a fire to cook fish, veg and meat, so you'll need standard kitchen equipment, a suitable location for your fire and wood to get your fire started.
Just add the course to your basket above - choose the 'Expert' option for personal feedback from Gill on your wood-fired assignments.
