Subject: Where pepper does not grow – Polish spice and aromatic herbs
Presented by: Katarzyna Rymarz

The art of combining aromatic, hot and spicy herbs has accompanied man’s search for new flavours, medicines or aphrodisiacs for centuries. Often, crisis situations have led us to discover ‘replacement’ solutions, which, contrary to expectations, have stayed in our culture forever. Such is the story of pepper, the scarcity of which prompted us to create our own hot and distinctive blend of herbs growing in our climate. During the meeting, we will make a healthy and aromatic herbal pepper using the old method.

Topics:
– Botany in the kitchen – herbs used as spices
– Use of spices
– Polish aromatic, spicy and bitter herbs

Naturam si sequemur ducem, nonquam aberrabimus.
If we are guided by nature, we will never get lost.
