September - October 2021

  • Srednja škola BOL, Croatia

    From 15 to 24 September, the activities of the Wild Plate were held in the form of field and gastronomic workshops.

    Since there were no mice in that period, the students picked a motar, an ancient wild vegetable sung in the play King Lear by W. Shakespeare, the food of the gods in ancient myths, and made a pesto from it for a local manistra. The gastronomic workshop also prepared brujet beans, a traditional (in a new way) typical of the Mediterranean diet.
