My school is next to St. Austell brewery and it still has the granite imposing buildings at the front! Next week, I get to teach frugality, cookery and table manners. I will have twelve students and four members of staff including myself and we will cook around the world. Tomorrow, we start in America with cheese burgers, coleslaw, home made relishes (I know they are the Anglicised version but everyone loves pickle) soft homemade bread rolls, followed by Lemon Meringue pie and Key Lime pie. I was surprised how many students wanted to cook, eat and wash up all week, but they are really looking forward to it. My budget per day is £60, which means the students will eat extremely well and I have bought the best ingredients that I can. I have also bought napkins, table clothes, so we can all sit and eat together everyday. I will post photos each day of what they have cooked (obviously not with the students in shot for confidentiality and legal reasons) so watch this space. There will be some fine dining in St. Austell next week!
