Springtime GRap Food Swappers Exchange… and Potluck!
RSVP on Facebook
Check out the GR Artisan Food Underground … Come together with other food artisans to swap goods to fill our own pantries!
How it works:
Do you make preserves, vinegars, ciders, pickles or handmade herbal remedies? What about breads, kombucha, teas, or fermented beverages? Sauerkrauts? Infused booze? Do you even have your own eggs from your chickens? Cheese? Pies? Whatever your kitchen specialty, participants should plan several of each sort of their treasured goods to swap. Time will be given at the beginning to socialize and check out everyone’s creations.
TWO SPECIAL NOTES:
~Please also bring a dish to pass and a PLACE SETTING, as we’ll be enjoying a POTLUCK.
~SEEDS & PLANTS are welcome at this swap.
You will leave with an armload of homemade goodness and hopefully a few new friends.

Grand Rapids Cooking School: Japanese Home Cooking
Chef Linsey Herman will transport us around the world tonight. Japanese cuisine is so much more than sushi. Chef Linsey shares her expertise by preparing a flavorful home-style meal. We’ll start with Hijiki Salad – a delicious, healthy seaweed salad. Then let’s dive into making Miso. Learn to make dashi, the basic broth of Japanese cuisine, and miso from ‘scratch.” We’ll compare the pre-made dashi. Chef Linsey will make Dengaku – a sweet and savory Japanese BBQ-style sauce that marries beautifully with tofu, meats, and vegetables. To round it out, we’ll learn to make Japanese Pickles – a quick pickle from daikon radish.
