This is your chance to become the ultimate pig master as the Culinary Vegetable Institute holds their three-day long Mangalitsa Workshop. The Mangalitsa pig, prized for its flavor and well-marbled meat, was cross-bred in the 19th century by pairing a wild boar with a pig. Each day of the Institute focuses on a different set of skills and techniques, as CVI Chef Jamie Simpson and guest Chef Craig Diehl (a James Beard Foundation nominee for Best Chef in 2011) join forces to create an opportunity of hoggy proportions. The workshops will cover everything, from butchering and methods of preparation like curing, smoking and salting, to creating and plating the 8-course menu during the Friday night dinner event.
Registration required
Workshop times: 10am-5pm Wednesday & Thursday, noon-6pm/prep and 6:30-9:30pm/plating on Friday. Wednesday, September 10 – Friday, October 2.
