The workshop in detail

  • 3h
  • 3 to 12 participants
  • 15 years min.
  • Ready to make your first kimchi?! 

    Meet Yannick, a passionate fermentation enthusiast, and learn how to prepare your own kimchi! 

    First of all, Yannick will take the time to tell you about his background and what attracted him to the mysterious art of fermentation, as well as all that it offers. With a great flair for teaching, he will explain the basic principles and will allow you to sample some of his creations. 

    Then, together you will prepare the vegetables required for the kimchi recipe, in particular, cabbage! After this, he will guide you, step by step, through the process of adding the ingredients to the jar. 

    Following this workshop, which is all conducted in a friendly and light-hearted style, you will have to leave Yannick and his friendly demeanour behind, but not without your own pot of kimchi to enjoy at home!

    Workshop location

    Yannick's workshop is located a few minutes' walk from the Pannenhuis metro station (line 6) and the Dieudonné Lefèvre bus stop (line 88).

    This place is accessible to people with reduced mobility.

    Practical information

    The workshop is not heated, and for good reason! Yannick and his team ferment the lactos at room temperature and they don't want to rush these fermentations. The workshop varies between 15 and 25 degrees throughout the year. Dress warmly!

    Meet Yannick & his team.

    Fermentation Specialist

    It was in 2017 that Yannick decided to switch careers and start his own business, with a desire to share his passion for fermentation. 

    He wants to test all the possibilities that fermentation has to offer, moving beyond the popular classics such as beer, bread, or kombucha. He therefore performed various experiments with vegan charcuterie, miso, and even vinegar. A passionate convert, but also very socially engaged, he uses only local products. 

    His openness and his teaching ability allow him to transmit his passion through his own workshop, sharing all the mysteries of fermentation!

    J'avais déjà goûté au kimchi, mais j'ai eu envie de voir comment ça se préparait. J'ai beaucoup apprécié les explications, la démonstration, les réponses aux questions, la convivialité de l'artisan et du lieu. J'attends de pouvoir consommer les deux préparations faites à l'atelier. Je recommande.

    Ce n'était pas Yannick mais Adeline qui était très compétente et dynamique. Atelier très intéressant. Il faisait juste très froid dans le local, pas très agréable...
