Online Course | Fermenting for Taste and Health with Rachel de Thample

Overview

Fermenting is one of the most ancient and widely used techniques for preparing food and drink. If you love the tangy flavour of sauerkraut, the vibrant taste of fermented vegetables, the delicate fizz of kombucha, the invigorating kick of kimchi, or the soothing qualities of kefir, this is the course for you.

Fermentation transforms food into something not only more nutritious but also more delicious. By incorporating natural, whole, and live foods into your diet, you can boost your healthy gut bacteria.

During this course, you’ll embark on a culinary adventure exploring various realms of fermentation, from krauts and kombuchas to lacto-fermented delicacies. By the end of your journey, your shelves will be lined with bubbling ferments, and your fridge will be stocked with irresistible, meal-enhancing delights.

Rachel will share her skills and secrets, honed over many years of experimentation in her own kitchen and at River Cottage, enriched by inspiration and creativity from fellow fermenters.
