Are you just a little bit obsessed with kimchee?  Some of us are, and two upcoming events at the Theodore Parker Unitarian Universalist Church in West Roxbury will satisfy your pickle cravings.  The first, on Sunday January 24 from 1 – 3, is a hands-on workshop led by Alex Lewin, covering vegetable fermentation and kimchi.  You will leave with a jar of kimchi that you have made, and you’ll be ready to compete in the kimchi festival in March.  Fifteen seats are available and there is a $15 fee.

Then, on Sunday, March 21, from 3 – 7 pm, Alex will be on hand at the Theodore Parker Unitarian Universalist Church to judge and organize the Greater Boston Kimchi Festival.  Start experimenting with your kimchi now, so you will be ready to enter it in the contest.  There will be prizes in different categories, including “traditional”, “innovative”, and “audience picks”, plus kimchi demonstrations, live entertainment, door prizes, and more.  All proceeds will benefit the Church, and more information may be found at http://feedmelikeyoumeanit.blogspot.com.  Thank you, Penny and Ed Cherubino of www.BostonZest.com for plugging us into this terrific web site.
