Fermentation Masterclass with Kenji Morimoto

Kenji Morimoto is a content creator and food writer based in London. As a fourth generation Japanese American, his cultural identity has always been grounded in food. As a child, he was in charge of making tsukemono (Japanese pickles) for family gatherings, learning from and surrounded by elders recreating flavours of home. In 2020, he started his Instagram @kenjcooks to document his interest in fermentation and connecting the dots between diasporic traditions and his own. He has now published his first book, Ferment, from which he draws for this masterclass. ​

In this masterclass, guests will learn how to make sauerkraut and miso, before sitting down to try both in a variety of dishes. ​
