Course Details

Fermentation is one of humankind’s oldest methods for preserving foods. Modern cooks have renewed appreciation for the tantalizing flavors and tremendous health benefits lacto-fermented foods offer: Sauerkraut, Kimchi and Kefir are full of vitamins, minerals, and probiotics that strengthen immune systems, improve digestion, and increase energy.

Please join Karen Diggs for a fascinating class, where science meets the cutting board. She will share the basic principles of wild lacto-fermentation and lead students in making Classic Sauerkraut and Kimchi, and using a starter (SCOBY) for Water Kefir. Each student will depart with jars of sauerkraut and kimchi, as well as water kefir grains to play with at home.

Whether your goal is homemade kraut or olive brine for a dirty martini, you can easily make small batches of fermented vegetables and naturally effervescent beverages packed with probiotics and rich flavor. Karen will also discuss things that can go wrong and how to troubleshoot, to help dispel your fermenting fears.

Our session will conclude with a shared feast of Kimchi Fried Rice, Potato Salad with Sauerkraut, and Winter Salad with Fermented Brine Dressing, highlighting the ferments made during class, served with Herbal Water Kefir and selected wines.
