Licorice tasting on the theme Flavor licorice
Ånäsvägen 44 - 46, Göteborg
What is licorice? What does licorice taste like? What flavors go well with licorice?
Welcome to the charcoal factory in Pellerins and join us on a journey in the world of liquorice! Discover the taste of licorice and learn how to cook with this versatile flavoring. First you get to taste raw licorice in different forms while I tell you about the raw material; what licorice is, how it is grown, processed and used in everything from medicine and shampoo to sweets and cooking.
Next, we will devote ourselves to the main theme: how licorice tastes and can be used in both desserts and food. All this is accompanied by self-made sweets and pastries. By exploring together how the liquorice taste can be described and what raw materials it goes with, I hope you get many ideas for experimenting with licorice at home. The tasting is interspersed with knowledge and curiosities about licorice.
About Desserts Without Borders
The tasting is held by Lotta Raab from Desserter Sans Frontieres. My business is all about sweet taste experiences. Ever since I started the company in 2010, I have been fascinated by and explored the taste liquorice. Already during my first talk at the Licorice Festival in 2011, the taste experience was central. It has since become the signum of my licorice tastings. If we develop our sense of taste and smell, we will be better at cooking good food! We are based in Pellerin's margarine factory in Gothenburg and our goal is to become the meeting place for liquorice here in the city. In the charcoal workshop we make handmade toffee and caramel sauce with Salmiakkolan at the head. Welcome to the coal workshop for tasting, liquorice cafe, market and other events!
