About This Event

Learn how to make dandelion kimchi with Lucky Kim! Kimchi is a healthful food that introduces important probiotics into your diet and is, therefore, an effective way to increase the healthy bacteria in your intestinal tract. Preserving vegetables is also a great way to be more sustainable and prevent food spoilage. This fun and engaging one-hour class includes step-by-step directions on salting, slicing, mixing, and packing a traditional recipe with fish sauce and shrimp paste. At the end of the class, you'll get to pack your own container of dandelion kimchi!
