| 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! |
| Jalapeño, hot sauces, sour cherries, Giardiniera, ginger, etc |
| Kimchi |
| Sauerkraut, cucumbers (when in season), tomatoes (including green ones) |
| OP, you should check out this book: The Noma Guide to Fermentation by Rene Redzepi. |
| Okra. I like it spicy and garlicky. |
| sourdough! |

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 brew kombucha. |
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. |
