For people interested in our vegetarian cooking classes, the next one is looking to be very popular, so make sure you get in early with your bookings. It will be held on Saturday 27th June and the theme will be "Traditional Tibetan".
Tibetan cuisine, is very different from it's neighboring countries, because at such high altitudes, only very few crops can be grown. The most important crop is barley, which is made into a dough called tsampa, and is the staple food of the Tibetan people. This dough is either rolled into noodles or made into steamed duplings calles momos. Mustard seeds are another important crop which is used frequently in Tibetan cruising. Yoghurt, butter and cheese made from Yak milk is very popular as well as Tibetan flatbread made on a skillet and Thenthuk, a type of cold-weather soup made with vegetables and noodles.
We will be sticking with traditional cruisine and are researching various delicious dishes to demonstrate on the day. The class itself is sure to attract a large number of interested people as it is quite different from the other vegetarian cooking demonstrations we have had in the past. If you'd like more information or to book a place you can phone Candace on 3895 8944 or email me at brisbane@asm.org.au.
Hope to see you there!
