It's no secret that we are huge fermentation aficionados here at Cafe Umami. Most folks are familiar with sauerkraut and kimchi but what about fermented fennel, fermented carrots or truly fermented cucumber pickles? We want to share the steps for making these delicious lacto-fermented wonders with you in this fun workshop.
The class will begin with a lecture that will delve into the uses, nutrition information, different styles and an overview of ingredients to consider incorporating. We will talk about troubleshooting and give you not only an easy to follow recipe but also discuss a general template to follow. We will provide a whole host of different herbs, spices and other innovative additions so that you can fully customize your jar. This will better help you to improvise when you want to recreate the magic in your own kitchen.
We have a limited number of spots available so please sign up soon!
What you'll get:
A lecture and Q&A
A recipe for basic fermented pickle
An overview of the equipment needed
A hands-on demo: you'll dive in and get those hands dirty (okay, you'll get your gloves dirty)
A jar of your very own, personalized fermented vegetable assortment to take home
