03 Jul Cooking with Fairview & Nina Timm
It’s deepest, darkest winter time. We get it. That means it’s cold, you don’t really want to go outside right? You’d rather stay cosy, inside, curled up under a blanket with a good glass of Fairview wine. And we don’t blame you! But the truth is, we all need to eat, and arguably the best part about winter (aside from the welcome rains that flow relief through the Cape), is the food. It is that one time during the year we can really indulge in comfort foods. Think gooey, melted cheese, hearty, thick stews, voluptuous roast lamb, and fragrant noodle broths. But we’re not all Michelin-starred chefs in the kitchen either. And that’s okay! Because we have just the solution for you – and trust us, it’s worth braving the cold for this one!
This July, Fairview has teamed up with our long-time friend and favoured food blogger and chef, Nina Timm from My Easy Cooking, to bring our Fairview visitors two different cooking demos. Expect to enjoy delicious snacks and learn easy and fun recipes using Fairview’s homegrown ingredients. The concept of these events is for everyone – whether you don’t know how to boil an egg or can make a soufflé from scratch – with the main goal being to learn the value in using farm fresh, farm to fork ingredients and how to incorporate Fairview’s range of artisanal products into your everyday cooking. Check out the information below, and make sure to book your tickets!
