Rog's Cookbook: How to use a whole chicken (in Slovenian)

In the Cooking Lab, we are launching a new workshop series, From Rog’s Cookbook, dedicated to the basics of good and efficient cooking. Together, we will prepare classic and iconic dishes and desserts, while learning the techniques that help dishes truly succeed.

The series is intended for anyone who wants to strengthen their cooking knowledge, improve their techniques and better understand kitchen processes. Special attention will be given to important skills such as the proper preparation of meat and fish, making basic stocks and sauces, and other techniques that form the foundation of confident and creative cooking.

In the first workshop of the series, we will learn how to properly break down a whole chicken and make use of every part of it. From the bones and vegetables, we will prepare a rich homemade stock, which is the basis of many excellent dishes. We will use the dark meat to make crispy fried chicken, while the white meat will be transformed into a tasty creamy sauce.

Special emphasis will be placed on techniques that help us remove as much meat as possible from the chicken and reduce food waste. The workshop is suitable for anyone who wants to cook more economically and sustainably, and prepare several different dishes from a single ingredient.

Please bring food containers with you, as you will be able to take home anything we do not eat during the workshop.
