Description

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

This course is designed for those of you who want a specific knowledge of our edible seaweeds and how to incorporate them into your diet in a delicious way. Seaweeds are commonly bought from speciality shops, usually from Asia, dried and packed in plastic. We have an untapped resource on our door step and this course aims to show you how to transform the somewhat slimey stuff on the beach into the delicacy you may have tried in a Japanese restaurant.

We will also look at including seaweeds to remineralise our bodies and nourish our skin in seaweed baths and skincare products.

COURSE OUTLINE:

A foraging trip to discover the common edible seaweeds of the British Isles.  You will learn to identify and harvest up to 15 local Cornish seaweeds.  These are seaweeds that you will find all over the UK.  After foraging we will share a seaweed based lunch of:

    • Seaweed & miso soup
