The Whole Bird Workshop - 31st October
Service Description
The Whole Bird Workshop 🍗 It’s official! Chicken is the most popular meat in the UK for good reason—it's economical, versatile, and tasty. However, it is far more cost-effective to buy a whole bird and break it down yourself rather than purchasing expensive pre-prepared cuts. In this hands-on workshop, you will break through the intimidation and learn how to confidently handle and joint a whole chicken. From that starting point, we will focus on multiple ways to transform each part of the bird using a variety of spectacular recipes. What you will cook and learn: • Knife Skills: Learn to joint a whole chicken into crowns, thighs, drumsticks, and wings. • Thai-Style Chicken Kiev: Stuff and bread chicken breasts with a vibrant, aromatic Thai herb butter. • Pipelchuma Thighs: Sear juicy thighs with a spicy Libyan chili-garlic paste, soured cream, and pickles. • Buttermilk Drumsticks: Master the secrets to ultimate crispy, golden, and tender fried chicken. • Tamarind Chili Caramel Wings: Toss crisp wings in a sticky, tangy, and sweet glaze. • Stock & Skin: Learn to make rich white and brown stocks, and crisp up perfect savory chicken skin. FAQs Is this class hands-on? It is a fully hands-on experience. You will joint the bird and cook the recipes yourself, alongside demonstrations. What is included? Everything is provided. We supply all ingredients, professional equipment, and aprons. We even handle all the cleaning up! What should I bring? Just your passion! Please bring plastic containers to transport your chicken creations home. Can I recreate dishes at home? Yes. You will receive a bespoke recipe pack with clear instructions to easily replicate these dishes and techniques at home. How big are class sizes? We limit sessions to small groups of 8 guests for plenty of guidance with our chef. Where are you located? Our climate-controlled kitchen is in a converted historic farm with free on-site parking. Are children allowed? Yes. Under 16s are welcome but must be booked alongside an adult. About our Classes & Setting Escape the ordinary at our rural cookery school.
