Finger Food is pleased to announce our most recent event “Our Bread & Butter: Recipes for Queerness” and participation in the 2024 Antiuniversity Festival.
The Kitchen Table is a site for much exploration, contemplation, FERMENTATION and most importantly a site for connection. In this iteration of Finger Food we invite guests to gather around the kitchen table to eat, learn, share and discuss possible recipes for queer futures. We are interested in exploring what the kitchen table may embody for people and how they may see intersections between queerness and processes of fermentation.
We will be looking at these processes through the food we are consuming as well as through the interactive element of the workshop by sharing with guests how to make their very own sourdough starter to take home with them as well as a small recipe zine that will include recipes of the food that we will share together.
Fermentation is a process of transformation, where living agents alter food to make something different and perhaps new. Could we look at these processes of change in relation to queerness and utilize what they may teach us to begin to imagine towards a queer future?
We will be supplying everyone with their own jar and materials for the workshop as well as with a small bowl of leek, parsnip and potato soup, freshly baked bread and some cultured butter. We are also extremely lucky to be collaborating with Hannah Daniel who has produced a small range of homemade flavoured butters for the event. We will also supply a few drinks (non-alch and alch friendly)
In the spirit of Antuniversitys mission this event is completely free and aims to decenter capitalist barriers around learning and food.
