About this Event
Join LUSH Valley and Chef Sophia Banks for a Community Kitchen where you'll learn the fundamentals of plant-based cheesemaking.
Chef Sophia will discuss how to prepare a variety of plant-based cheeses at home, including soft, melty cultured and non-cultured cheeses, and aged cheeses to slice and grate. Participants will learn how to confidently create delicious plant-based cheeses and experiment with flavours that will have everyone at the table craving more, whether they are dairy-free or not.
Allergy note: The recipes in this workshop will include tree nuts.
A full meal will not be served at this workshop, but there will be a range of snacks available.
Please bring a clean container with a lid to bring home samples.
Sophia Banks resides in Courtenay after two decades of working as a chef in Toronto and Montreal. Sophia is a recipe developer for several vegan food brands and has worked extensively with plant-based and gluten-free foods. Sophia has a passion for gardening, food security and food preservation.
