Vegan Phish & Seaweed

Masterclass - Vegan Phish & Seaweed

The Event

"Living on an island we should eat more seaweed – it’s plentiful and an incredibly mineral-rich whole food. Using seaweed in cooking also means we don't need to need to miss out on fishy tastes. I'll show you how to use seaweed creatively for the ultimate breakfast, a decadent smoked carrot lox (hold the salmon), and how to make simple divine seaweed enriched pestos, marinades and more. ''

Apologies we have had to pause offering a concession rate for our paying in-person cookery classes. Due to the pandemic we cannot fit as many people in the kitchen which means classes generate less vital revenue needed to keep the charity going. 

Refunds/transfers: we require a minimum of 7 days' notice for any cancellations or transfers once you have booked onto a class to enable us to try to resell your ticket. 

Please understand our charity needs time to enable us to try to resell your tickets as we rely heavily on the income generated. You are also welcome to give your ticket to a friend or family member in case of last minute illness (just email classes@madeinhackney.org to let us know).
