A mini class on picklingAbout this Event
HGS Home Chef presents Thursday night mini classes, a new format in our cooking tutorials. Held on the occasional Thursday from 5-6pm these in-person classes focus on specific techniques or pantry items intended to expand your home cooking skills and flavor game. Instead of our more costly, 2.5-hour classes, followed by full meals, these weekday mini classes offer instruction, recipes, tastings and expert advice, all for just $45.
In this class Kogetsu shares how to preserve our local seasonal bounty with balanced and bold spices and warm, cured oils. Indian Pickling (Achar) allows you to preserve raw fruits and veggies with flavor-packed results that saves for months. These delicious pickles encompass all five tastes. They are tantalizing and can turn the simplest meal into something boldly flavorful.
Leave this mini class with newly awakened taste buds, South Asian fermenting skills, and your own little jar of Pickle to ferment and enjoy at home. What we will be pickling will be decided by whatever is growing and gorgeous as we come closer to the class.
This one-hour demonstration class and tasting is limited to ten people
