Upcoming workshop announcements, and photos of past workshops…
I am very excited to be a part of the newly reformed Fermenterie, and especially looking forward to this event, which will be our first large event.
I will be offering two workshops, Broths and Infusions, and Cheese Making. Check out our website at Fermenterie.com and our Instagram @fermenterie_ny to learn more about this and future events.
In the dining room slicing up cheese, a few days old, to brine up into feta and more…
Chunks of young cheese go into these quart jars where they prepare to be flooded!
The three final jars, from left to right cheese is being preserved in and with —
Olive Oil, with some sea salt and dill coating the chunks.
In the middle, a simple 5% salt brine will lead these chunks down the road to Feta. In one or two weeks the complex flavors will have developed.
And on the right, in red wine with a little lavender.
Three delicious and beautiful ways of preserving. The cheese, the same until now, goes its separate ways.
These cheeses are for an upcoming event, A Day of Fermentation and Slow Living, on September 27. Two unique 90 minute fermentation workshops (many to choose from including Cheesemaking!), artisanal snacks and drinks all day, and a farm to table feast of a luncheon.

In the fall I will be teaching two classes through SUNY Ulster Continuing Ed, one which I have now offered twice, Homesteaders Kitchen Intensive, and a new class covering Japanese Home Cooking.

Both courses will be once monthly for three months, on weekends in a kitchen on the Stone Ridge Campus of SUNY Ulster.
The Homesteaders Kitchen Intensive will cover Cheese making, Sourdough Bread Baking, Lacto-fermentation and pickling, and basic wines and meads.
The Japanese course will cover many basics — Making soup stocks, both bone broth and mushroom broth; making Miso Paste and Sake; and making various other odds and ends, culminating in making a sushi and soup meal together.
Hope to see you in class —
