In recent years, discoveries from leading scientific researchers have found that the state of our gut bacteria is not only the key to weight loss but also could lead to better mood, immunity and skin.

During the class, we will delve into the world of fermentation, and you will learn how to get started with fermenting at home. You’ll drink Kombucha and Keffir on arrival and understand how it’s made at home and the best places to buy ready made versions, both drinks are packed with probiotics, fundamental in helping to balance the gut microbiome.

You will then made kimchi and sauerkraut which you’ll take home in jars provided.

Both are famous side dishes which can be eaten with any meal and are traditionally made by fermenting cabbage but many other vegetables can be used. Korean kimchi is hot and spicy, sauerkraut has a distinctive sour flavour, the result of lactic acid formed when the bacteria ferment the sugars in the cabbage leaves.
