Event Details
Submitted by the Event Organizer
Ancient Latin American culture has been fermenting food and drink for thousands of years. Vinegars were made from tropical fruit using natural fermenting agents from sugar and ginger. And, Chicha, a spirit drink made from fermented corn was used by the ancient Mayan-Aztec during spiritual celebrations.
Francisco Jimenez from Costa Rica leads this two-part workshop that teaches people how to ferment the Mayan-Aztec way by making vinegars from bananas, plantain and pineapple and using it as food, condiments or for healing. This is the second part of this workshop.
