Sit down at our table, between the beautiful prints of Kunstformen der Natur, for a special lunch during the Fermentology market. We have invited Chef Thor to prepare some of the newest, weirdest and tastiest fermented foods for us. Listen while your plate gets served to the stories about the micro-organisms that actually created your food.
Meatthe Mushroom
In the north of Amsterdam there is a mushroomfarm called Meatthe Mushroom. Currently Peter Oei and his team are researching the possibilities of mushrooms as a meat replacement as well the sustainable production process opposed to the meat industry. They do this by for example combining mushrooms with the leftovers from the shrimp industry.
Brandt & Levie
Did you know that the taste of a sausage is determined by its surroundings? We have started a new, four-week-long experiment of sausage fermentation on different locations in Amsterdam. These sausages will be tasted during the opening of Kunstformen der Natur. For the lunch Brandt & Levie will bring more sausages and explain their production and speciality.
Aquaponics
Here at Mediamatic we grow lots of chard in our Aquaponics office. For the lunch we will harvest and ferment the chard into spicy Kimchi.
Information
Tickets for this lunch are €37,50, drinks included (beer).
The table is setup in the exhibition space upstairs
