Some will be bou ght in (relative) bulk so you can stock up on the standards such as Organi c Cumin\, Coriander and Fennel seeds\; Sumac and dried Tumeric. In additio n\, each month we’ll get one or two jars of a more unusual spice to shar e and experiment with at home - without having to buy a whole jar that - l ets face it\, - may never get used. Think Grains of paradise\, Cubebs or L ong pepper.\n\nYou’ll be able to buy by the gram at just a little over c ost price.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat's included?\n\n Tasters of our homemade pick les\n All ingredients and equipment to make your own jar of pickles\n Re cipes to take home\n Hot/cold drinks and snacks\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\nACC ESS &\; VENUE\nAccess: If you have additional access needs (e.g. large print\, BSL interpreter\, level access) Please let us know by emailing or sending us an SMS text/WhatsApp message on 07957 602790‬\n\nThese sessio ns are in our upstairs workshop space.
