The famous 'Gateau Basque', with 'xapata' black cherries
After our successful '13 Desserts of Provence" Christmas event in December, we'll embark on a culinary journey like no other, from Bayonne and Biarritz in France to Bilbao, San Sebastian and Pamplona across the border.
We'll explore the fascinating stories and traditions behind iconic dishes and ingredients such as Espelette pepper, pintxos (the Basque tapas), the famous jambon de Bayonne (cured ham), salt cod a la Vizcaina, txipirones (baby squids) in their ink, the Basque macarons, the Gateau Basque with xapata black cherries, and so much more.
Bayonne is also the French capital of chocolate, so get ready for a couple of surprises on the side of things too!
Anyway, I can't wait to share with you the wonderful culinary traditions of the Basque Country - don't miss out!
Date: Saturday 5 February 2011 - 12:30pm.
Location: shhh, it's still a secret - unveiling Sydney location in January!
