Sydney Seafood School’s Sumptuous Summer Series

If you’re looking for inspiration for the celebrations ahead, November’s your month. The Australian Gourmet Traveller crew demonstrate recipes to help you through the silly season on 6 November; on 13 November Kathy Snowball presents a 3-course Festive Entertaining menu to delight family and friends without exhausting the cook; and on 18 November Lyndey Milan ’s Seafood and Bubbles Workshop includes 4 fast and fabulous seafood dishes accompanied by 4 festive sparklers.

New cookbooks are almost as much a part of the festive season as pine trees and Christmas cards, and on 25 November Lucio Galletto presents recipes from his beautiful new book Lucio’s Ligurian Kitchen, while Christine Manfield showcases recipes from her new tome, Fire, on 6 December. In December Matthew Moran, from Aria Restaurant, presents his spin on modern Australian cuisine and Sean Connolly teaches recipes from the funky new Sean’s Kitchen.

And if time’s running out for Christmas shopping, remember Sydney Seafood School gift certificates can be ordered online at www.sydneyfishmarket.com.au and printed immediately 24 hours a day – perfect for last minute shopping!

Make a New Year’s resolution to try some new seafood recipes from the inspirational line-up of guest chefs including: Jonathan Barthelmess from Coast (12 January), Justin North from Bécasse (19 January), Christine Manfield from Universal Restaurant (7 February), Mark Jensen from Red Lantern (9 February) and Lauren Murdoch from Ivy’s Ash Street Cellar (16 February).

Seafood School manager, Roberta Muir says: “Fresh seafood is the perfect base for quick and delicious salads, from retro prawn cocktails to a modern spin on Salade Niçoise, so we’ve developed a new Seafood Salads class for this program, with three fast and fabulous dishes perfect as entrées or light meals.”
