FERMENTATION WORKSHOP: Wild Brewing – Natural Sodas

July 4, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm

23€
wild brewing workshop
Midsummer is coming and that’s a very special time of the year to harvest herbs.
Herbs constitute a strong element for celebrating the Midsummer solstice due to their strong connections with magical and healing powers. St. John’s Wort, lavender, mullein, lady’s bedstraw, and mugwort but also calendula, chamomile, mint, rosemary, thyme, and verbena have all been regarded with reverence throughout the northern hemisphere.
The Druid priests and other healers in the European pagan civilizations thought that herbs reached the highest point of their therapeutic efficacy on this Midsummer day, and they would gather them to dry and store for the remainder of the year.
> So, it’s time to go forage…and ferment !
In this workshop we will have a first insight into wild brewing by playing around with different botanicals to craft our own unique fermented drink!
Starting with a classical recipe of a ginger beer you will be able to create your own style of wild probiotic drinks, understanding the basis behind the fermentation process.
Program:
– Time and fermentation: cultural and symbolic aspects
– What is this all about – yeast…bacteria – wild fermentation?
– A chat about probiotics, gut health and benefits of fermentation as well as some of the variables to be considered in the process
– Tips on how to make your ginger bug (or other wild starter)
– Step by step explanation and hands on practice to craft your own herbal lemonade
At the end of the workshop participants can take home:
* a bottle of a herbal lemonade
* a sample of a ginger bug (or wild starter)
* pdf fermentation notebook
The workshop will be held in English!
Cost: 23€/participant
