Wholesome Bites: Fearless Fermentation
Fermented foods are beneficial to our health, and can also be intimidating to make at home. While there is a degree of unpredictability with fermentation, once you get the hang of it, there is so much possibility with seasonal ingredients and local flavors! Fermented, probiotic-rich foods are easier to make when you have the helpful recipes and culinary skills to accompany you on your health journey. Join us for a delicious culinary nutrition experience, where you will learn how to ferment with confidence in your own kitchen. All of the recipes are gluten-free, dairy-free, and utterly delicious.
Each class in this series will include an interactive lecture about the nutritional benefits of the class topic. Enjoy live cooking demonstrations, new culinary techniques to use in your kitchen, and samples of fresh recipes to try. At the end of each class, you will walk away with knowledge of how nutrition affects your body and what you can do about it, practical experience preparing nutritious meals, a reference guide of the education shared during class, and 6-8 recipes to prepare with your friends and family at home.
