Fermentation Basics: A Hands-On Workshop
Learn the basics of fermentation and discover how naturally fermented foods can support gut health, digestion, and overall wellness in this beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop.
We'll walk through the fermentation process step by step as you make your own jar of sauerkraut. You'll learn how fermentation works, tips for safely fermenting foods at home, and how you can use the same basic techniques to ferment a variety of vegetables. You'll also have the opportunity to sample homemade sauerkraut and other fermented foods.
You'll leave the class with your own quart jar of sauerkraut ready to ferment at home, plus a recipe and instruction booklet to help you continue experimenting in your own kitchen.
Everything you need is included! Jar, fermentation weight, ingredients, supplies, and recipe and instruction booklet will all be provided.
Scales will be provided for participants to share during the class, but it is highly recommended that you have one at home. Feel free to bring your own to use in class.
