LARDER AT HOME looks to fermentation and other pre-industrial food preservation techniques as a way to empower home cooks eat local, with the seasons, year-round.
Description
Let's be honest, the tempeh available in stores is pretty blah. But this traditional Indonesian bean cake, when made with care and high quality ingredients, can be the star of your plant-based summer BBQ.
Making tempeh at home is a game changer. You can choose virtually any grain or legume (throw in some seeds if you like!) and have a batch of protein-rich patties, free of ultra-processed additives, in 24-48 hours. In this class I will walk you through the steps, discuss troubleshooting common issues, and provide 1 week of followup support.
Let me take you to veggie burger heaven!
