About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Are you interested in the joys of fermented foods?


Ideally for beginners this session is a great opportunity for a refreshers for those with some experience too.


Join us as we delve into the history and practice of fermentation - what is happening in the jar, why fermentation is so good for your gut and your tastebuds, and of course, how to make your own kimchi, sauerkraut and brine ferments.


There will be a tasting of pickles from the Get Pickled fermentation fridge and a handout with the recipes explored in this session.


After the workshop, you will return home with a 1-litre jar of your own creation and a newfound appreciation for all things fermented, with support from Paula and the Get Pickled WhatsApp group.


LEARN:


  • The science and history behind fermented foods.
  • Safe ways of making your own.
  • How to best incorporate in your food.
  • The difference between kimchi/sauerkraut and brine pickles.


MAKE:


  • Your own jar of fermented goodies to take back home.


TASTE:


  • A variety of pickles straight from the Paula’s Fermentation Fridge.

Organised by

Get Pickled

Get Pickled was born out of a passion for preserving food, community and our planet - and a genuine desire to create more out of fresh ingredients. A move out of London, combined with UK lockdown 1.0, provided the catalysts for turning a cloudy, life-long dream into a clear reality. Paula, the UK-imported, Brazilian super-cook and globetrotting uber-feeder, finally had the time and space to cook up an enterprise that advocated and embodied her passions.

Inspired by my two beloved grannies, one from the Amazon and the other from Italy, I use my wild imagination to transform humdrum food surplus into flavoursome, invigorating, vegan-friendly fermented foods, condiments and pickles. "Our aim is to be completely zero-waste and to have a minimal carbon footprint by using seasonal produce and any surplus we can get our little green fingers on."

Paula cooks up a selection of fab fermentation workshops

The award-winning Brazilian owner of Get Pickled Somerset, Paula Neubauer, hosts a selection of workshops including her ever-popular Forage and Ferment session with the wild plant enthusiast Samantha Williamson. This course is a fabulous opportunity to learn about safe foraging from an expert before you discover how to use what you have picked and found in delicious fermented foods.

Paula has also invited fellow Guild of Fine Fermenters members and rising stars in the fermentation world to come to Frome and share their expertise.

Get Pickled's core trio of fermentation workshops are:

  1. Introduction to fermented vegetables
  2. Learn how to make fermented condiments
  3. A deep dive into fermentation: a seasonal cookery class
