In the early 20th century, Strathcona was known as 'Little Italy'. In this Village Vancouver workshop with Alyssa Kohlman, you'll learn the basics and benefits of lacto-fermenting vegetables, and how to make a fermented version of Italian giardiniera - a vegetable condiment/antipasto. Giardiniera can be used on eggs, bruschetta, pasta, tuna salad, potato salad, burgers, sandwiches, sausage, and even pizza. All ingredients are provided. Wear comfortable clothing to cook in. Please bring a wide-mouth 500ml mason jar, cutting board, large knife, and large bowl if you're able to. We'll have the VV-SCC Community Seed Library present and you'll be able to take seeds for your garden or swap or donate seeds.
Our healthy, local food residency at the Strathcona Park Field Houseoffers a variety of affordable food and community based programming at the fieldhouse, Strathcona Community Centre, and elsewhere.This workshop is part of VV's 2017 Cultivating Food, Cultivating Community Series at Strathcona CC.
