Making Tempeh Burgers – From Beans to Patty
January 27 @ 19:00 - 21:00
€42.00
Join us for an exciting and hands-on workshop where we’ll explore the art of making tempeh—a traditional Indonesian fermented food—and transform it into a flavorful, plant-based burger.
Tempeh is made by fermenting beans with a beneficial fungus (Rhizopus oligosporus), creating a firm, sliceable block with a nutty, earthy taste. Rich in protein and fiber, it’s one of the most nutritious and versatile plant-based proteins in the world.
In this 2-hour workshop, you will learn about the history and cultural roots of tempeh, the fermentation process from start to finish, and how to prepare it for cooking. You’ll also get hands-on experience inoculating your own batch of beans to put in the fermentor, learn about making this fermentor DIY style, and working with a ready-made batch to create a seasoned tempeh patty. We’ll finish by assembling delicious burgers with freshly prepared toppings and condiments.
This workshop is perfect for anyone curious about fermentation, plant-based cooking, or simply expanding their kitchen skills. Whether you’re a seasoned chef or a complete beginner, you’ll leave with the knowledge to make your own tempeh at home, the skills to turn it into a delicious meal, and your own batch ready to ferment.
With a small group size, this workshop offers a friendly and interactive learning experience. You’ll get plenty of time to ask questions, taste, and share ideas.
