Join us for our next Member Meeting as we welcome Liam to learn about how he uses seafood that would otherwise go to waste to make garum.

Garum is the Roman name for a fermented fish sauce that was an all-purpose liquid umami used in ancient cuisines throughout the Mediterranean region. Maine Garum Co. is reviving the popular ancient sauce to reduce food waste, working with Maine seafood processors to save their byproducts to ferment into this delicious and versatile seasoning. In this talk you will learn a bit of history, how garum is made and some fun ways to use it in your kitchen.

Liam Fisher, Founder of Maine Garum Co. is an engineer, cook, food safety professional and fermenter with a particular focus on waste utilization. He has held roles including a stint as head of fermentation at a nationally recognized Maine restaurant and has spent years managing seafood processing operations.
