Practical Preserving At Home: Kimchi with Ellen Schindler

Keen on a way to boost flavour in your food while helping improve gut health? What about with a delectable, spicy condiment that you can add to almost any meal?

Join expert tutor Ellen Schindler at Kelmarna Community Farm for this crash course in kimchi, and find out how easy it is to make your own fermented kimchi at home. In this workshop, you’ll learn about the ingredients and the recipe, you’ll go through the process step by step, and you’ll have a chance to take a portion of the result home to share and enjoy. Ellen will begin the session with information on how to create a basic ferment, before you get hands-on to prepare the cabbage, choko, daikon, chili, and other ingredients.

Tickets include:

  • theoretical and practical instruction in making kimchi
  • access to ingredients, equipment and tastings
  • a portion of finished kimchi to take home

What to bring:

  • a small glass jar or sealable container to take home some kimchi
  • a hair covering for food hygiene like a hat or bandana
  • a pair of single use gloves (if you have a pair; nitrile, not latex!)

Ellen Schindler is a passionate gardener and community organiser. Since 2006 she has nurtured her home garden in Sandringham into a productive food system with about 55 fruit trees of all types and sizes, beehives, chooks, and vegetable patches. Ellen believes that healthy food should be accessible to everyone, and teaching hands-on DIY workshops is one of her favourite ways to achieve this goal!
