Description

Food Empowerment! Gain and in-depth knowledge of fermentation (brining) as a form of food preservation. Lacto-fermented foods provide numerous health benefits using lactobacillus bacteria to preserve food as opposed to vinegar. In this intensive workshop, we'll discuss how fermentation works and how it benefits us, why it's safe and how to succeed with small-scale fermentation projects at home.

In class we will cover the following master recipes along with ideas for improvising or adjusting for personal flavor preference or available vegetables:

  • Kimchi or Sauerruben
  • Cultured Seasonal Veggies in a fermented brine
  • Live-cultured vinegars from fruit juices or scraps
Participants will each take home a recipe packet and 3-5lbs of seasonal veggies from Green Gate Farms to ferment at home.

Refreshments and samples of fermented veggies and raw vinegars will be served. Payments with check or cash are also accepted, please contact me directy through the 'contact the host' feature to pay by either of these methods. All ticket sales final, may be transferred to another class of equal or lesser value.
