Back to Chantal's next Tuesday for koji and miso fermentation! Sign up link in bio
Join Trevor Ring, founder and fermentation educator of Community Cultures, at Chantal’s Cheese Shop to learn all about the world of miso! Attendees are invited to take part in an interactive workshop involving one of Japan’s most popular culinary staples, miso, and the backbone behind many of the region’s condiments, koji. Taste some cheese from Chantal’s and BYOB!
Miso is an umami-rich, fermented bean paste and is one of the most satisfying and interactive ferments to make. It requires patience, curiosity and trust of the microscopic world. This workshop will give you the essence, understanding, and confidence to make miso at home using traditional Japanese techniques. It will also plant the seed to explore more koji-based ferments on your own at home.
This workshop is ALL AGES. All ingredients are gluten-free and vegan (except the cheese). Participants will also receive a code to buy organic koji with free shipping from

We've got a fun lineup for Bloomfield tomorrow, including a new small batch of miso! This miso utilizes local organic beans from Weatherbury Farm, and was aged for 3 months. It's a wonderful, well-rounded white miso, with a wonderful sweetness, savory and nutty flavor. All who purchase one get a sample of the small bit of tamari that came out of it! Of course, don't miss the vibrant soda lineup, too (apricots ❤️)

July is the perfect time of year to master your pickling and fermented vegetable technique. Join Trevor Ring, educator and owner of Community Cultures, for a Picklesburgh after-party (or summer bounty celebration) in your own style, in a quiet, intimate setting with a small group of people. Sip on two different wines that pair well with pickles as Trevor teaches you the basics of pickling through fermentation. You’ll enjoy two glasses of wine and walk away with a jar of cucumber pickles to ferment at home, and the confidence to ferment any vegetable!
This class will run for an hour and a half starting at 6:30pm with time afterward for sipping, chatting and browsing the shop.
