August 26 | All Things Preserving

In this class we will learn all about different ways of preserving - canning, fermenting, freezing and dehydrating. When to do which and what the difference is. We will talk about hot water bath canning and when it’s needed. Each student will make their own batch of sauerkraut to take home (1L Kilner Jar included), and we will learn how to ferment vegetables, make kimchi, water kefir, milk kefir and kombucha. We will also make raspberry jam (the simplest jam to make) without pectin and learn how to hot can. Kaelin will demo dill pickles and tomatoes. Included in this class is dinner with wine, a hands-on class with instruction and a thorough recipe pack that includes bonus recipes and a section on sourcing ingredients.
