Learn the essentials of miso! You’ll learn how to make miso using non-soy beans and other unique ingredients like mushrooms and roots as well as how to cook with it.

Description:

Miso is loved for its deep umami flavor and health benefits, but did you know it doesn’t have to be made with soybeans? In this hands on class, we’ll explore the exciting world of soy free and gluten free miso, using alternative ingredients like black beans, dandelion roots, and mushrooms.

You’ll learn the complete miso making process, including how to make koji, build an affordable incubator, and ferment miso at home. Each student will prepare their own custom batch of miso to take home and ferment, creating a truly unique and delicious result. We’ll also dive into the health benefits of miso and how different ingredients can create unique flavors. To inspire your creativity, we’ll sample finished soy free miso and demonstrate how versatile and delicious this amazing ingredient can be.

After we’ve finished making miso, we’ll have a hands on cooking class where we will unlock the full potential of miso. You will start by sampling a variety of miso, each with its own unique flavor profile, and learn how to incorporate them into an array of dishes. Together, we will craft vibrant sauces, salad dressings, soups, marinades and desserts that will elevate your cooking to new heights.

This class is perfect for food lovers of all skill levels who are eager to explore new ingredients and enhance their culinary repertoire. You will leave inspired, confident, and ready to make miso the star of your kitchen.

Finished miso will be available for purchase at the end of the class, so you can continue your miso journey at home. 

This is a hands on class and participants are able to ask questions as we go.
