If you are thinking of purchasing an Aga, or maybe you've just bought one or inherited one, then it's a good idea to book a place at an Aga cookery demonstration. These types of events take place in showrooms and locations up and down the UK to help potential owners, current owners and even skilled users to attain a greater understanding of ways to cook with these legendary ovens.
Agas are undoubtedly one of the simplest and most convenient range cookers on the market with a range of features that will allow you to cook terrific food for family and friends. There is a broad selection of models to select from to suit the needs of any lifestyle and home. The latest models come in a variety of fuel options including gas, oil, electric and dual-fuel. Depending on the size of your kitchen you'll also find an oven designed to fit the space available from the larger six-burner, four-oven range cookers to the compact four-burner, 2-oven cooker.
Discovering exactly what an Aga oven can do is time wisely spent especially if you've yet to buy one. These legendary cookers are likely to last a lifetime but the initial financial expense is high so it can be judicious to find out precisely what you can expect from it. Seeing one in a showroom will give you some rudimentary operational knowledge but to a have a true indication of all the benefits it is best to see one in action.
Aga demonstrations are generally cost-free and may be booked through a local dealer. The session itself will be run by an experienced and authorised demonstrator either at a showroom near you or at a local cookery school or private house. You will learn how to use the basic features of the oven as well as the perfect cookware and cooking techniques that can make the most of your cooker. If you're already an owner, a demonstration can help you pick up a few tips to extend your cooking experience as well as giving you a chance to master new recipe ideas and some shortcuts that can make life easier.
During the session you can expect to find out how timing is more significant than temperature control and the demonstrator will guide you through the art of using specific ovens to determine when your meal will be ready. They'll also demonstrate how the Aga is efficient in preparing any style of meal and not just roasts or casseroles. Audience involvement is encouraged to give you a chance to be 'hands-on'.
If you're a seasoned owner then you might want to consider reserving a spot on a themed demonstration. These kind of sessions concentrate on particular cooking techniques like dinner parties, world cuisine, puddings or preparing Christmas dinners. Whether you're a newcomer or an experienced cook, it's well worth getting involved so that you can build your self confidence and your cooking repertoire.
