What Can I Expect

So much more than just a mushroom cooking class, this is the Deer Manor online Gourmet Mushroom Cookery Class! Join the live-action cookery sessions to learn how to prepare and cook stunning dishes with a variety of mushroom species.

Alisha and her team at Deer Manor run this award-winning, organic gourmet mushroom farm in the wilds of Scotland's Dumfries & Galloway. It's all about low-tech, chemical-free mushroom growing in the most natural and sustainable way. Over 20 varieties of fungi are grown on rotation.

These online courses will inspire and amaze. Who knew there were so many colourful and different-shaped mushrooms beyond your typical button mushroom? From the small and delicate Enoki agaric used in Japanese and Chinese cookery, to the rugged and stocky Bolles Bear Head with its distinctive nutty flavour.

You can do everything with mushrooms. From brunch and lunch, to dinner and even desserts and drinks, the diversity and versatility of fungi is remarkable.

Over one and a half hours of online cookery demonstrations, feedback and question and answer sessions, you'll learn lots about the humble mushroom. In preparation for your class, Deer Manor will send out a 500g gourmet selection of organic mushrooms so you can cook along in your own home.
