Fermentation is one of the easiest way to preserve food but it's also super healthy for you. You don’t need anything special to do it – just plants and salt.
The amount of delicious condiments you can make using fermentation is actually mind boggling, from simple sauerkraut to kimchi, salad condiments and even hot sauces. In this workshop, you will not only learn the basic methods but, even if you're already experienced, I will show you how to bring your ferments to the next level by mixing spices, aromatic plants, seeds, even wild plants and give you tips for pairing your fermented creations with interesting food.
I will even show you how to create ferments that everyone (even those who usually don’t like sour flavors) will appreciate and how to make 100% sure you never get a bad fermentation. If you are into health and flavors or want to learn how to preserve food from a gourmet perspective, this workshop is for you!
Before the workshop, just for fun, we'll do a plant walk and you'll learn about local wild edibles plants as well - it's a very slow walk with lots of stops.
This is a very fun hands-on workshop – Here is what you need to bring with you:
2-3 pint (500 ml) jars
1-2 regular green cabbages
I’ll provide the rest and you’ll get to take your tasty creation home.
Of course, we'll have some wild ferments tasting and drinks.
In this workshop, you’ll learn:
How lacto fermentation works and the principles behind it.
Making ferments with basic equipment you already have at home.
Food safety - Best way to avoid mold or other spoilages.
Creative sauerkraut-types ferments – how to put together tasty little side dishes
How to make your guests or family enjoy fermentation.
We meet in front of a place called Reptacular
