Cotter and Flynn double bill
Two for the price of one is how the Tannery Cookery School is billing its Paradiso Harvest demonstration, which will be given by Denis Cotter of Cork vegetarian restaurant Cafe Paradiso, with input from Tannery chef/proprietor Paul Flynn, on Saturday, September 11th. Cotter is a gifted teacher who makes his recipes seem simpler to recreate than they sometimes appear in his books. So, if you’ve ever read one of his recipes and thought it sounded delicious but involved too much work, this could be the course for you. Flynn says his kitchen garden will be providing baby turnips, radishes, beetroot, leeks, late summer salads and chard for Cotter to work his magic on. The full-day course costs €180, including lunch.
