SURVIVAL KIT CATALOGUE & WORKSHOP
-2014-
A small catalogue of edible plants for the workshop *** Survival Food taught by food designer Katja Gruijters at Domaine de Boisbuchet where I was her assistant.
The research was made for almost a 100 plants from a region of France called La Charente. The work consisted of analyzing if the plants were edible.
During this intensive course on food design the attendees worked with this survival kit and any available ingredients found on Boisbuchet’s natural estate while all attention was turned to their inventive preparation and cooking methods. All their inspiration and research in this survival food design course was shaped into a (three-star) three-course dinner, party or product line. It consisted of fish from the river Vienne, fried Boisbuchet ants, freshly picked wild cherries, served with plates and cutlery.
This was a workshop to discover, observe and transform nature. A challenging food design group assignment for cooks, foodies, graphic designers, architects and all other interested creative disciplines!
