Handel’s Italian Feast
Georgian cooking is back with live demonstrations at Handel Hendrix House. Presented by our expert food historians in period costume and using replica Georgian kitchenware, you will experience a kitchen filled with the sights and smells of Georgian cooking using recipes from the 1747 cookbook The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy by Hannah Glasse, amongst others.
Join food historians, Marc Meltonville and Robert Hoare as they take you on a journey through 18th-century Italy, exploring the dishes Handel would have encountered during his time there. Pizza? Pasta? Biscotti? Find out which of our seemingly modern Italian staples Handel might have enjoyed. Ticket price includes a tasting and a glass of Italian wine.
