Sarah says,
“I spent years avoiding cooking a whole chicken. It seemed laborious and intimidating. But now, slow roasting a chicken is part of my weekly rhythm, and one my whole family looks forward to! It adds an air of festivity to a weekday table. It is delicious, nutritious and reliable. It can be stretched beyond a single meal and it becomes a delightful centerpiece at a dinner party.
If slow roasting a whole bird sounds intimidating, please join this immersion style class and enjoy good company as I walk you through ingredients and method.
After each attendant has prepared their chicken, we will enjoy some water, tea or bone broth and have some discussion around pastured vs. conventional chicken; nutrient profiles; understanding store labels regarding chicken; and more!
At the end of the class, we will carve a chicken roasted during our class, and enjoy it for lunch with some seasonal vegetables.
The best part? You will be home in plenty of time time to slow roast your own chicken for dinner.
I look forward to seeing you there!”
The class includes –
– a locally raised and pastured chicken from Pig Feathers Farm, which each attendant will prepare and take home with them.
