Food first for Foster

FOSTER is to be the location of the first of four ‘Cook Here and Now’ events to be run across Victoria in coming months. The ‘Cook Here and Now’, featuring acclaimed chef Raymond Chang, will take place on Saturday April 17 in association with the Prom Country Farmers’ Market at the Foster War Memorial Arts Centre.

It is because of the local farmers’ market and its ties with the Victorian Farmers’ Market Association that Slow Foods Melbourne selected Foster to host a ‘Cook Here and Now’ event. ‘Cook Here and Now’ was started by foodie Marco Flavio Marinucci in San Francisco with the idea of encouraging people to come together, source local seasonal produce, ideally from a farmers’ market, prepare that food and eat it together.

The idea has been taken up with alacrity by Slow Food Melbourne. Slow Food, an international not-for-profit organisation started in 1986, is supportive of Marinucci’s aims. The Slow Food manifesto states that it “fosters community awareness of food that is good, clean and fair - that the food we eat tastes good and should be good for us; that it is grown and made in ways that respect animals, the environment and our health; and that the producers who grow or create it should be fairly rewarded for their endeavour”.

According to its website, Slow Food was established “to counteract fast food and fast life, the disappearance of local food traditions, people’s dwindling interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, how it tastes and how our food choices affect the rest of the world – people, communities, animals, plants and the environment”.

Visiting Foster last Friday, Slow Food Melbourne president Alison Peake said this district would appear to be a highly appropriate site for a ‘Cook Here and Now’ event with its authentic farmers’ market concentrating on locally sourced produce and the thriving Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Project at Foster Primary School.

On April 17 participants in the ‘Cook Here and Now’ will meet chef Raymond Chang (formerly of Vue De Monde restaurant and currently working at CERES community environment park in Brunswick) at the FWMAC from 8am.

They will shop together at the farmers’ market and other local shops, if necessary, and then, under the chef’s guidance, cook up a meal with these freshest of ingredients. The focus will be on seafood, potatoes and other seasonal food. The cooks might like to bring along some produce from home.

Costs for the event will be minimal, though participants will be asked to contribute to the cost of the ingredients. Everyone will then sit down in the hall to eat what will hopefully be a delicious meal! Anyone who is interested in taking part in the ‘Cook Here and Now’ is asked to book a place though Alison Peake at Slow Food Melbourne on slowfoodmelbourne @i primus.com.au. Contact Juneen Schulz of Prom Country Farmers’ Market, tel. 5680 8509, for further information.

“We had a trial ‘Cook Here and Now’ event at Collingwood last November. It went well, but there was so much chatting going on, people had to be reminded to stay on task and keep cooking!” laughed Alison. “This one in Foster will be the first of four to be held across regional Victoria.

Places will be limited, so anyone who wants to participate should secure a place as soon as possible.” The ‘Cook Here and Now’ event at Foster will be among several Slow Food events taking place across Gippsland mid- April. Also planned is a Sustainable Seafood Lunch and, in Korumburra, a Growers and Eaters Forum. More details will be available closer to the time.
