For the beginner, try a range of hearth cooking techniques, recipes, and equipment. Learn how to roast chicken in a reflector oven, boil and mash root vegetables, and bake soft gingerbread and bird’s nest pudding in bake kettles.
Join us this March and learn how to prepare dishes from the past under the guidance of our experienced Open Hearth Cooks. Workshops are held in the Visitor Center at Hall Tavern. Each workshop is designed to teach you a variety of cookery techniques. You will participate in the process and assist Hearth Cooks in the preparation of period recipes. When the food is ready, you will sit down to enjoy the fruits of your labor!
