Preserved is a fermentation-focused kitchen shop and classroom in Oakland’s Rockridge neighborhood, right on the College Ave commercial strip. The front of the space functions as a retail store stocked with pantry staples, preserving tools and general cooking gear, so walking in for a class means passing shelves of jars, baking equipment, vinegars and grains. more...
