The Zen Cuisine does not adhere to any nutritional dogmas or recipes. If you pay close attention to everything in the kitchen and within yourself, a delicious meal will naturally emerge. Being present with things and perceiving them with all your senses is the main ingredient in Zen cuisine. You could say that this is the taste of Zen.
Zen master Dogen (1200-1253) wrote the “Tenzo Kyokun,” instructions for the cook, a cookbook for life. It does not contain recipes, but rather practical and spiritual instructions that teach that energetic everyday work is not separate from the spiritual path. This is the essence of Zen. Zen is life and not separate from it.

Zen Cuisine
Open course. Small group with up to 5 participants.
We cook a nice and simple menu. We experience the taste of zen and take plenty of time for the cooking process, for instructions and eating together. In a Zen monastery, cooking is done in silence, with complete attention. We will also taste this.
Susanne Shonen Roth was responsible for the kitchen in a Zen monastery for 15 years.
Location: Le Petit Zendo
