Ferment

Fermenting is a traditional way of preserving foods that creates a delicious and gut healthy end product. Making lacto-fermented veggies (like fermented asparagus) is a great way to use up excess veggies from your garden. Fermented honey garlic can help keep you healthy!

I’m also big on making fermented drinks such as kombucha, water kefir, and natural sodas. And of course there’s mead (honey wine) and other homebrews, like apple ginger beer, that bring us happiness and joy!
