Let food by thy Medicine: Hippocrates

In the beautiful outdoors kitchen area of the garden, we’ll dive into the essence of the meaning of the word diet as used by Hippocrates. Travelling through traditional Greek lifestyle, customs and dishes, we will highlight eating habits and recipes with high nutritional and therapeutic value, that played a huge role in the renowned Mediterranean longevity. We’ll clarify myths and bring awareness to what has changed and how to cope with modern challenges. We’ll cook with natural, organic materials, including herbs and plants from the garden, and we’ll learn indispensable recipes to include in our meals. Within nature’s sounds, we’ll be invited and guided to observe how we feel as different tastes, aromas and substances enter our body, and be present in the sacred process of nourishing ourselves.

The workshop includes olive oil tasting and the organoleptic assessment of the quality of all ingredients.
