    TRADITIONS OF THE LAND - NATURAL BUTTER MAKING WITH MAX JONES
    Venue: The Red Chapel
    Tickets: €10

     Join traditional food conservationist Max Jones for traditional butter making demo and tasting. From rare cheese production in the heights of the Alps to traditional wild salmon smoking in the republic of Ireland, he seeks to gain knowledge to then share with others so they might be inspired to propagate the use of ancient techniques that are steeped in tradition, offering reconnection to the land and sea through pre-industrial processes.


    Butter has been a key fat for thousands of years, and when we discover its true provenance, we learn that it is an alchemical transformation of summer grass into life-giving gold.

    Our relationship with butter has gradually changed over the past 200 years, and our palate has shifted to accept sweet-cream butter from the fresh cream available by milking on a large scale. In this session Max will make natural butter and offer tastings so you can see the difference.
