FARM TO TABLE EXPERIENCE - TRADITIONAL OPEN FYLO

Farm to Table Experience The Ultimate Culinary Experience At Arcadiani, cooking doesn’t begin in the kitchen, but in the soil. We invite you to an authentic ritual of flavor, where you will learn to identify, harvest, and cook the treasures of the Arcadian land. The Harvest (Foraging) The experience begins with a walk around our estate. Basket in hand, we wander among the garden beds and trees: Seasonal Vegetables: We pick the ripest tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, or wild mountain greens, depending on the season. Herbs & Spices: We learn about the healing properties of oregano, thyme, and sage, gathering the aromas that will add depth and intensity to our dishes. The Cooking Class In our open-air or traditional kitchen, Arcadiani’s experienced cooks share age-old secrets: Dough-Making Techniques: Learn to roll out thin, crispy phyllo pastry for the classic wild-greens pie. Traditional Recipes: We cook "secret" local recipes. The Art of the Wood-Fired Oven: We learn how to heat the oven and naturally control the temperature. The Shared Table (The Feast) The experience concludes around the large communal table beneath the trees: Tasting: We sample the dishes we created, accompanied by local wines and our own sourdough bread. Stories & Tradition: We discuss the nutritional value of the Arcadian diet and the role of food in the village's social cohesion. Program inclusions: Tour of the estate and participation in the harvest. Full cooking class (2 hours). 5-course meal with local beverages. A folder containing the class recipes so you can recreate them at home. "We don’t just teach you how to cook. We show you how to nourish yourself with respect for nature and tradition."
