Introduction to Pickling Class

Friday, May 30th, 11:00 to 2:00 PM

It's time to stock up your pantry with flavorful, homemade pickles! We will roll up our sleeves and practice the fundamentals of fermentation. Under-ripe Starfruit? You can pickle that. A glut of garden vegetables, pickle them! Maybe you were wooed by the adorable, mini quail eggs at the farmers market and now don't know what to do with them... brine 'em up for a delicious, protein-packed snack!

Hopeful Menu (if Mother Nature cooperates)

• Hawaii-style Pickled Mango
• Quick Pickle Red Onions
• Canned Dilly Beans
• Tacoria-style Pickled Vegetables (escabeche)
• Spicy Shoyu Pickled Quail Eggs

Aletha Thomas, the founder of both Monkeypod Jam and Cooking Kauai, teaches this introductory class. Her 15+ years of experience in both home and commercial preservation make her one of Hawaii's top authorities. 

Age Requirement: Ages 16+

Location: The Cooking Kauai, Provisions Kitchen in Lawai. The exact location will be shared after registration.

 Refund Policy

Due to limited seating and the upfront costs of food and its preparation, our classes are final and non-refundable.

Please consider signing up for our classes as you would purchasing a concert ticket-you can always send someone else in your place, but refunds cannot be issued.

Alternatively, you may contact us, and we will try our best to sell the seats on your behalf. If we do so, a future credit to a scheduled class will be issued.

Refunds will only be issued if Monkeypod Jam needs to shut down or cancel events due to unforeseen events or low participation (fewer than 6).

We appreciate your understanding that this is how we maintain our business and provide boutique-style service.
