The Louth Urban Food Sanctuary (LUFS), recently held an event in collaboration with Dundalk Institute of Technology (DkIT) and staff and students from its Culinary School in the Department of Hospitality.

Culinary students from DkIT’s Department of Hospitality provided a selection of delicious tasters from recipes which they have specially developed for LUFS. This live collaboration with LUFS formed part of the Gastronomy module for the second-year students in Culinary Arts, where students focus on the importance of food sustainability and the vital role of artisan food suppliers in menu design. As part of their assessment, the students paired a product from the LUFS with a product from a Louth artisan food supplier to create a unique recipe.
