Workshop: Tasty local nuts

Discover the surprising versatility of nuts! During this cooking workshop, we dive into the world of local nuts and discover why they are not only good for our environment, but also for our health. We get to work ourselves with almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, and chestnuts, and discover how these delicious ingredients provide extra flavor, texture, and nutritional value in both sweet and savory dishes. Will you cook along? Why is it good to eat nuts regularly? Het Vlaams Instituut Gezond Leven and the Nederlands Voedingscentrum recommend eating 15 to 25 grams of unsalted and unsweetened nuts daily. Nuts are packed with good unsaturated fats, fiber, proteins, vitamins, and minerals, thus contributing to healthy digestion, stable blood sugar levels, and healthy cholesterol levels.
