WHAT TO EXPECT: This class concentrates on making the most of what you grow or find at the markets. We will make a loaf of sourdough, prepare pickles and light ferments that are ready to eat as well as long lasting pickles and ferments. We will show you several ways to keep citrus savoury and sweet, prepare a jar of long shelf life pickles and do a little fermenting. While we’re waiting for nature to take its course we will enjoy a lunch showcasing the techniques we learn on the day. You will have what you’ve made in class and all the recipes from the workshop to take home. We will discuss various sour dough fermentations and will send you home with a starter. There will be a small supply of ferment kits and other more difficult ingredients to source available to buy.
