In the Studio With Cherie Denham: a dinner exploring The Frugal Pantry
After the excesses of Christmas, it’s time to pare things back. But make no mistake — frugal doesn’t mean flavourless. It’s about being thoughtful: stocking your cupboards with ingredients that work hard for you, making more from less, and taking pleasure in the quiet satisfaction of a well-curated pantry.
For Cherie Denham, author of The Irish Bakery and the newly released The Irish Kitchen, this way of cooking runs in her blood. Rooted in Irish tradition, her approach celebrates the rhythm of the seasons, the joy of preserving, and the art of turning simple ingredients into generous, soul-warming dishes that entice people around the table.
Join Cherie for an intimate dinner in Fortnum's Food & Drink Studio, where she’ll share her pantry must-haves and favourite frugal tips. Over the course of the evening, she’ll demonstrate how to transform a handful of humble ingredients into plates that brim with comfort, character, and flavour — proving that restraint can be the mother of real creativity.
Ticket includes a welcome drink and 3-course meal.
