An afternoon of pickling and fermenting with Bore Place chef, Natalie Harris
Learn how to preserve your veggies and create naturally lacto-fermented, gut-health-boosting pickles and ferments.
Lacto-fermented vegetables are found around the globe, and are renowned for being nutrient-packed, rich in probiotics and immune system-boosting. This workshop will provide you with the skills you need to make these nutritious foods at home!
In this workshop you will create sauerkraut, a fermented cabbage and national dish of Germany, kimchi, a traditional Korean side dish of fermented vegetables, and brined vegetables, vegetables preserved in a salted water solution and flavoured with herbs and vinegars.
The workshop will include a walking tour of the organic Market Garden where you will pick fresh herbs that will be incorporated into your dishes. Then it’s off to the kitchen where Natalie will guide you through the process of preparing and creating your fermented foods.
What’s included in the workshop:
- Fresh organic produce
- Three jars filled with your own fermented foods: sauerkraut, kimchi and brined vegetables
- Fermented snacks to enjoy throughout the workshop
- Recipe cards for everything you make
