June 1, 2024
Taught by the Lincoln County Hearth Cooks
Intro to Cooking over fire and flame:
Developing fire-building skills
Woodfire Cobb-Oven Baking
Open-Fire Hearth Cooking
Finely crafted outdoor meal served at 6pm
How can we connect to the elements while nourishing our bodies? This class is an invitation into a sacred space to engage in mindful cooking for a community over open flames.
Together we will learn the ancient art of fire building, connecting to our earth through foraging and awakening our innate abilities to nurture one another with food.
We will explore cooking directly over open flame, in a stone hearth, on an antique wood cook-stove, and baking in a hand-made cobb oven. Through our intentional cooking - we will provide a meal for ourselves as well as for the participants of a simultaneous on-going Beginning Blacksmith workshop with Josh Cooper.
