Thursday 11 December 6.30 - 10 pm
Join me for a hands-on workshop where we will make and cook a traditional Ukrainian borsch with smoked pears. Borsch is not just a beetroot soup but a rich broth with a variety of flavours and vegetables. There are many versions of borsch, depending on where you lived in Ukraine, and we’ll talk about that. I’ll also tell you about the wooden spoon and how it was used to test whether your borsch was good or not!
We’ll make Paumpushky, aka fluffy Ukrainian garlic bread, traditionally served with borsch.
Once all the work has been done, we’ll sit down and eat, family style, sharing food, stories and laughter in my kitchen.
We can accommodate most dietaries apart from gluten intolerance.

The space Olia provides is so calm and intentional, it’s all about the food and the coming together. Your mind stops, you’re not even in London, it’s just like-minded people getting together to experience the preparing of food and its joyful universality.
