What do you love to ferment?

Anonymous
Yes, I am one of those... I never got on the sourdough bandwagon at the start of covid, but I did discover fermenting and now i'm hooked! I now brew my own kombucha, make sauerkraut, and ferment a variety of other fruits and veggies. I'm looking for inspiration for what's next! Anyone have a favorite food or recipe that is a bit unusual or fabulous? TIA!

(OP here, just realized how many exclamation marks I used there. Apparently I'm quite excited about fermenting...)

Sauerkraut for me! It’s a big hit for my toddler to help make too!

OP, you should check out this book: The Noma Guide to Fermentation by Rene Redzepi.

Okra. I like it spicy and garlicky.

Red onions
I don't know if they really ferment that well, but you put the onions in salt water, leave for a few days and then refrigerate. Makes it easy to have ready cut red onion

I like this idea. I usually caramelize and freeze a bunch of onion to have ready, but like this to have red on the ready. Does it help with the raw flavor?

The flavor is a little bit more mild

Hot sauce!
I ferment a jar of hot peppers, onion, garlic, and sometimes ginger. Strain the liquid out and drink as a fermented fire cider. Blend the veggies and you have a delicious fermented hot sauce.

Beets with onions and hard boiled eggs.
