Being gluten intolerant need not mean
limiting your culinary creativity. Join Leiths this June for an
inspiring one-day workshop designed to enhance your kitchen
confidence and skills when cooking without wheat.
Adriana Rabinovich, Leiths Diploma graduate and author of 'The Gluten-free Cookbook for Kids', will be leading this informative and hands-on one day class. Drawing on her wealth of knowledge and experience in baking, Adriana has devised a selection of recipes, which make the most of a range of wheat-free flours offering diverse textures and tastes. Adriana will show that sticking to a gluten-free diet can in fact uncover a fulfilling feast of wholesome and tasty possibilities.
Focusing on the wealth of different gluten-free flours and grains available, this workshop will explore how to use these ingredients to maximum effect in your cooking. With an emphasis on baking, the course will cover the different properties of non-wheat flours like teff, chickpea and sorghum, using them in creative ways to develop healthy and tasty gluten-free goodies, from a moist American corn bread to delicate little amaretti biscuits. This course is ideal for those seeking inspiring ways to enjoy a healthier gluten-free diet.
Sample recipes include: Teff Bread, American Style Corn Bread, Potato Gnocchi, Buckwheat Cheese Straws, Cecina (a savoury chickpea cake), Amaretti Biscuits and a Hazelnut Cake.
