About this Event
About the Class:
Come celebrate with me in the Massachusetts Avenue Project Kitchen by learning to make this traditional German meal that my family makes each year to celebrate our German heritage during Oktoberfest. I have adapted aspects of the meal to meet our homesteading family ways and contemporary taste buds by making the Spätzle with Sourdough!! In this class you will engage with hands-on instruction to learn how to make a batch of sauerkraut. During that process I will be sharing the science and magic of Lacto-fermentation with you. You will also receive family recipes and watch cooking demonstrations for each element of the meal. We will have fun creating and eating samples of this meal together and by the end you will have a clear understanding of how to make this food and incorporate these practices and traditions into your life. In addition to leaving class well fed, with a small recipe book in hand, you will also receive a small jar of our house made kraut to enjoy. Prost!
About the Author:
My name is Ashley Smith and I am a mamma, artist, health enthusiast, homesteader, mentor, and a self taught cook who loves to share what I have learned and practice with others. I have recently started a business called Practical Magic Mentoring and I believe working with food is both practical and magical. Practices involving food are a doorway towards our individual and collective healing. Working contemplatively in the garden, kitchen, and at the dinner table with food is a way to deepen our relationship with the food we eat, ourselves, others, and the land we live on.
