This class has been programmed to coincide with Gardening Bohemia: Bloomsbury Women Outdoors exhibition.  The Bloomsbury artists, particularly Roger Fry, Duncan Grant, and Vanessa Bell, spent years in a succession of rented Provençal villas, particularly in Cassis. It is documented that their travels gave them an appreciation for Southern French Provençal cuisine, which they brought back to their gatherings in London.  In this class with chef Camille you will learn a three course feast of authentic Provençal dishes, and share the Bloomsbury group’s appreciation for the cuisine.

Sample Menu (to be confirmed) 

• Pissaladière
• Goat cheese stuffed globe artichoke
• Ratatouille with chickpeas and basil
• Chocolate olive oil mousse & lavender sablé cookies

– Learn knife skills including how to hold a knife properly and how to slice, chop and dice
– Make the most of seasonal produces
