Online Cooking Class: Fermentation for Digestion and Immunity

In this interactive online cooking class, Chef Natasha will teach you all about the ancient practice of fermentation and how it preserves food and aids in digestion and immunity. 


To kick off your virtual cooking class, you'll first create a sweet and tangy Mexican-style tepache pineapple drink with sugar, cinnamon and cloves. Next up is a simple kimchi with cabbage, ginger and daikon radish. This is served with a fresh and colorful vegetable stir fry prepared with broccoli, carrots and bell peppers.
