The secret and intricate world of salt
25 Feb 2010
Docklands foodies will be interested in the launch of a new book about the use and value of salt in cooking.
The Salt Book will be launched at Kobe Jones restaurant at Waterfront City between 3 and 6pm on March 22 as part of the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival.
The event will feature a workshop and degustation menu allowing guests to taste a wide range of specialty and gourmet salts matched with food presented by top chefs.
Whilst being guided through the degustation menu, participants will also explore innovations in preparation, serving and finishing with salt – making your own flavoured salt; salt slabs, salt sprays; salt tasting notes and, importantly, how to take a “saltwise” approach to cooking.
The $60 entry fee includes a copy of The Salt Book (valued at $34.99) and a gift bag containing samples of exotic salts.
Bookings can be made via the Arbon Publishing website http://www.greatgrandfamous.com.
