FAQ

Q: How long do I have to watch the classes?

A: As long as you want, as many times as you want. The content is hosted on a membership site where you can login and access this information for the lifetime the course is available (if it closes, you’ll be given sufficient notice to save the information to your personal files).

Q: Do I need Facebook?

A: No you don’t.

Q: What is fermenting?

A: Fermenting is sourdough, beer, wine, cheese, miso, soy, kimchi, kombucha…. to name a few. Fermenting is a form of ‘food preserving’ which was very common in Australia until we began our reliance on processed packaged food. Fermenting is the combination of vegetables (or fruit), salt, spices and sometimes water to change the ‘structure’ of the vegetable. In this case, good bacteria is grown and changes the structure of the vegetable making certain vitamins and nutrients more readily available. It is said that fermenting ‘pre-digests’ the vegetable for us, making the goodness of the vegetable more readily available and easy for our body to absorb.

Q: Why should I care about fermenting my food?

A: Fermented foods feed our gut with good bacteria. The bacteria in our gut is fed and multiplied by what we eat.

– If your diet is full of fresh fruit, veggies, wholegrains etc… your good bacteria is fed and multiplied.
– If your diet is full of fast food, crappy oils, processed crap… your bad bacteria is fed and multiplied.

All disease begins in the gut and it’s how we choose to feed our bacteria that makes the difference. Including fermented foods in your diet can help with a range of digestive issues, or it can simply help you stay healthy.

Q: Can’t I just buy my ferments?

Yep. Most people buy their ferments, which range in price for $12 – $20 or even $30. What most don’t realise is fermenting is very simple to do yourself. It’s a great way to connect in with your cooking mojo and build your confidence in the kitchen. You’ll access your creativity which will help you put together beautiful food combinations without needing a recipe (everyone’s dream goal).

Fermenting at home can help you save money by using up odd bits of vegetables that you may otherwise forget about and end up in the bin.

Q: Does fermenting take a long time?

A: Your time investment can be as quick as 5 – 10 minutes. Chuck it in a jar and you’re off. You will need to check on your jar daily, which will take 30 seconds – 1 minute. Then it’s up to you how long you leave you jar out before placing it in the fridge. Once it’s in the fridge, your job is done.
