Organ meats cooking class - 7:30pm Thursday 25th July 2013
I will be running an organ meats cooking class/workshop on Thursday 25th July (first week of school term 3).
I will be showcasing ways in which you can easily incorporate (and disguise!) nutrient-dense organ meats into meals including:
(a) chicken livers (in the form of pâté and as vegetable stir fry) (b) lambs brains (via omelette, cheesy scrambled eggs, and crumbed in spicy activated buckwheat flour) (c) bone marrow (via vanilla berry custard and meat patties)
- information on the nutritional benefits of organ meats
- detailed handout including information on where to purchase organ meats with prices, and step by step recipes
- practical demonstrations
- hands-on experience
- food tasting
- opportunity to ask questions of myself and a local butcher

Organ meats from pastured animals are the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. Liver is loaded with fat soluble vitamins A and D, essentially fatty acids, highly absorbable iron, B12, protein, zinc and the richest source of folate. Organ meats should ideally be consumed at least once a week, if not more frequently. They are an especially important source of fuel and nourishment for athletes, children, those who are iron-deficient, those wishing to fall pregnant, as well as pregnant and lactating women. Organ meats were part of all traditional diets and were the most highly prized parts of the animal for our hunter-gatherer ancestors. Most people in modern society simply don’t consume organ meats on a regular basis. Here’s your opportunity to build reserves of strength and vitality by learning how.
