Pickling Basics
9am to 1pm
Sour, crunchy, spicy, tart, sweet, and aromatic, pickles bring exciting seasoning, piquancy, nutrition and interest to our meals. They are a flavor counterpoint; harmonically interdependent with the aroma and taste of the main elements of a dish. Eating would be much less interesting without pickles, chutneys, relishes, salsas and other such condimentCanning Rings!s. Of course, pickling is not only a means of creating flavor, but also of preserving food. The Farmer's Kitchen in Hollywood is offering a class on the basics of pickling using fresh food from the farmer's market. Participants will take home one or more jars of what we preserve. $75 The Farmer's Kitchen, 1555 N. Vine St., Ste. 119, Hollywood hollywoodfarmerskitchen.com
