The Event

“Let Food Be Thy Medicine, And Let Medicine Be Thy Food.” - Hippocrates, Father of Western Medicine

The process of fermenting foods is as old as humanity. Fermenting preserves food and makes it more digestible and nutritious. Valued for its complex tastes, fermented foods are a powerful aid to digestion and a protection against disease." Asa Linéa Simonsson from Linéa Nutrition

The class will include:

  • Learning the nutritional benefits of fermented foods
  • Making kombucha and water kefir
  • Learning how to make sauerkraut and kimchi
  • How to make nut cheeses
  • How to make fermented salsa and chutneys to go with the cheeses
  • Delicious organic plant based lunch and recipes to keep

Åsa Linéa Simonsson is the author of 'Fermentation - how to make your own sauerkraut, kimchi, brine pickles, kefir, kombucha, vegan dairy, and more' published by Anness Publishing Ltd. Asa grew up making ferments in her native Sweden; a trained nutritionist, naturopath and nurse, she runs a busy natural nutrition and health practice, Linéa Nutrition, in the UK combined with popular workshops and retreats.
