Wild-Fermented Soda Creation

Bread Machine Basics
Think bread machines are just for pushing a button? Think again. Learn how to use a bread machine effectively, understand what the ingredients are actually doing, troubleshoot common problems, and make better bread without overcomplicating it. Various breads on display for taste testing.
Cooking with Offal
Don’t throw it away, cook it! Explore the often-overlooked parts of the animal and learn practical ways to prepare organ meats and other offal. We’ll cover preparation techniques, cooking methods, flavor, and how to make use of more of the animal.
Portable Grill Cooking
You don’t need a full outdoor kitchen to make a great meal. Learn practical techniques for cooking on a portable grill, from fire and temperature management to preparing complete meals with limited equipment.
Rabbit: Dispatch to Freezer
A hands-on look at the process of taking a rabbit from live animal to properly processed and frozen meat. We’ll discuss humane dispatch, skinning, evisceration, portioning, packaging, sanitation, and freezer preparation.
Quail: Dispatch to Freezer
Learn the practical process of processing quail for the freezer, from humane dispatch through cleaning, preparation, packaging, and storage.
Creative Cooking: Throw Out the Cookbook
Recipes are suggestions. Ingredients are what you actually have.
This workshop is about learning to cook without depending on a recipe: using what is available, understanding flavors and techniques, making substitutions, rescuing mistakes, and figuring out what to do with the random ingredients sitting in your kitchen.
And More…
Apocalypse Cuisine is always experimenting, learning, and finding new ways to put food skills back into people’s hands. Expect additional workshops covering cooking, preservation, fermentation, homesteading, whole-animal utilization, and creative ways to become less dependent on the grocery store.
Workshop dates and registration details coming soon.
