Community fish class with Riddle & Finns (Community Cookery)
About this event
Learn how fish can be a healthy, affordable part of your everyday meals, whether you’re replacing meat or looking to experiment with new ingredients.
Fish is low in ‘bad’ saturated fat but high in the ‘good’ omega-3 fatty acids credited with being good for your joints and boosting your brainpower. Packed with vitamins and minerals too, it is a healthy protein alternative to meat.
Yet too often fish is considered too expensive and too fussy to cook with. This class will show you that neither need be true!
Patrick Timpson from Brighton institution Riddle & Finns will teach you some essential skills and tips for fish and seafood preparation. You will cook and pairs and then you sit and enjoy a communal lunch together. A typical menu for this class is (depending on the catch of the day):
- mussels provencal
- pan fried salt and pepper squid
The low-cost places on this class are available thanks to Patrick from Riddle & Finns generously donating his time for this event. BNFS will also be donating fish.
