MEET YOUR INGREDIENTS

“Meet your ingredients” is a bespoke interactive & immersive experience focusing on wild flavours, foraging, fermentation & fire cooking for designed for groups, get-togethers, dinner parties, and work training sessions/away-days.  With many locations in the South of England available for a variety of different events please get in contact with your requirements and we can design something special together.  Also if you have a site you’d like me to run a session at or have me along for part of an event I’m also keen to get involved as you can see with Flat Earth Pizzas & The Good Food Guide.

Flavour has to be natural, honest, and with a bit of earth still on it. There are no convoluted supply chains, and no air miles, only what’s natural and what’s good.

Humans have always depended upon a harmonious relationship with nature to provide the food we need.. This is something we have lost connection to and why Flavour Fred exists and what we focus on. We need these skills and knowledge for modern living and at Flavour Fred we want to keep these vital traditions alive.
