Kimchi For Everyone!
20 Dec 2012
I visited Blue Oven Kitchens a few weeks ago to discuss an upcoming event at the Farmer’s Market, and found out that Blue Oven Kitchens is also available to rent for cooking classes.
That got me thinking…
I make very good “winter” kimchi with a method that no one else seems to use. My kimchi lasts much longer in the fridge without molding or getting too sour, is extremely flexible with ingredients, and I think it makes kimchi with a really superior flavor. It’s spicy and stimulating, perfect for winter, and full of healthy living probiotics and most of all, love.
I would love to teach a class this winter on how to make this kind of kimchi, starting with shopping for ingredients together at the Alachua County Farmer’s Market and ending at Blue Oven Kitchens assembling the ingredients. Each student would buy their own fresh ingredients- whatever greens and root vegetables you want in your kimchi- at the farmer’s market. All of the other ingredients and jar would be provided. The base recipe uses fish sauce, but I’ll have an alternate recipe available for vegans & vegetarians.
The registration fee would depend on how many people pre-register. I need to have 10 registrations at $30 each to make the class happen. If we get more than 10 people, the price would be $25.
There are two weekends possible: January 19th or February 23rd
Please leave a comment if you’re interested in the class and which date you’d prefer. If I get enough people to comment here, I’ll set a date and set up online payment.
Kimchi for everyone!

Thank you for replying! Please share this with anyone you think would be interested. If I get 10 people for each date, then I’ll do them both!

Hey- I sure would appreciate a recipe (since you live a thousand miles away!) Been wanting to make some pickled stuff for a while, and that kimchi looks so good! Especially if you have a vegetarian recipe!
Love your blog btw!

Feb 23rd works better for me, since I am doing a demo at Haile on the morning of Jan 19th

I hope I get enough people, I only have five so far.
