Fun Pickling and Fermentation classes in Sydney
Fermented foods have always played a large role in the way humans have preserved and consumed foods, particularly before the invention of refrigerators. We’ve been pickling, fermenting and preserving all manner of foods and liquids since around 7000BCE, with the likes of kombucha originating in China around 220BCE. It didn’t spread to Europe until trade expansion in the early 20th century, however, and it wasn’t until a Swiss doctor compared its health benefits to yoghurt in the ’60s did public awareness of the beverage start to increase.
Learning pickling and fermentation aren’t just an ancient method of food preservation, it’s also one of ClassBento’s Sydney workshops that focus on improving your overall physical health!

Health benefits of Pickling and Fermenting
Fermentation and pickling food and beverages is a great way to improve your gut health. The live probiotics that exist in the fermentation process aid in gut health and promote healthy digestion and improve nutrient absorption. The probiotics also improve skin health and elasticity, and have been found to aid in cardiovascular development. Chock-full of antioxidants, scientists have also recently found that the brine produced by pickling boasts an incredibly high level of immune-boosting antioxidants and can ward off muscle cramps. In a study from 2005, it was discovered that pickled foods help keep blood sugar levels low, and regular consumption can play a vital role in a diabetic’s diet.
Not only is the product itself teaming with health benefits, but the activity of learning fermentation also aids in brain health. Learning a new skill promotes the growth of white matter in the brain, which opens up new pathways and not only improves but increases brain function. This has been found to be highly successful in warding off degenerative brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
