With Roxane Mitten

Thurs., April 26

(Sols Out) Fresh pickled vegetables are tasty and easy to make.  Kombucha is mysterious and very popular. Join live culture enthusiast Roxane Mitten as she talks about the biology of fermentation for these two types of products, and explains how to do it yourself.  Perhaps you have seen a crock or big jar with a plate holding the food under a brine? Friendly microorganisms make the veggies more tender, more flavorful, and even boost your digestion. Roxane will demonstrate the preparation of Pickled Mixed Vegetables, Gari (Japanese pickled ginger for sushi), and Kombucha with secondary ferment of fruit juice creating good color, flavor and effervescence. We will also sample featured cultured foods from the Co-op shelves.
