Fermenting foods at home is making a come-back, and with good reason. Eating foods rich in probiotics is an excellent daily practice. Most traditional peoples regularly consumed probiotic-rich foods. This was one of the ways they kept their gut flora healthy. Gut microbes are needed for many essential functions including protecting us from pathogenic microbes; maintaining the integrity of our gut wall; good immune system function; and the production of vitamins and other nutrients.

In this workshop you’ll learn how to embrace these ancient and safe food preservation techniques to make your own cultured delicacies. Did you know? One tablespoon of fermented vegetables contains around the same number of beneficial micro-organisms in a whole bottle of commercial probiotics!
Join Lorraine for a 3 hour hands-on workshop of learning the basic techniques of fermentation, and tasting and making different fermented foods and drinks from around the world in a fun and relaxed small group environment.
