Seafood Preparation Course
This consists of 13 different modules. For each module you prepare from scratch the fish or shellfish that you have chosen to prepare. So for example you might spend the morning learning how to fillet or steak, skin and gut your fish and in the afternoon you would cook your chosen item, using recipes created by our resident cook Carole-ann & consultant chef Adam.
If for example you had chosen lobster you would prepare it from fresh to eating. We call this from the "boat to the throat". We have two recipes to choose from for every unit, and discounts are available if you take a full module and/or there are three in your group.
Choose one or more of the units below. All modules and units are interchangeable - for example, you could do courses in lobster, haddock and sea bass or just salmon.
