I wondered about fermenting potatoes, but they are delicious! Fermented, tossed with olive oil and salt, and baked, they have almost a vinegary-french-fry flavor! Since this is a very simple vegetable ferment, we’ll have time to add a more complicated one; Fermented apple and pear chutney with aromatics and spices. This tangy chutney makes a great gift or to have in the fridge to add zing to a familiar meal. (I love it on hearty bread with a sharp cheese toasted over the top). This hybrid class will include the microbiology and the ferment creation. Instructor Emma Holder, Masters in Micro/Immuno, McGill '93.
