Kimchi is fermenting happily 🔥 otherwise there is always sth happening in our kitchen. Today we had a creamy mushroom rice soup with celery, carrots, garlic, chili and so on 🥰
I also fermented some garlic in honey two weeks ago 🙏🏼
Sounds delicious!! Yummy...fermented garlic sounds also great...best remedy for infections! Would you have a suggestion, if I prefer to use a plant based sweetener for fermenting garlic? Maybe raw agave syrup? Do you have a recipe for fermenting garlic? I've just ordered asafoetida. Have you heard of it or even tried it? It should be similar to garlic/onion...and also very health-beneficial. It's a sap. I'm always curious trying new things 🙌🏼
You could try agave syrup 🤔
Its mostly about the sugar and the container being airtight. But honey has antibacterial and antiviral properties. Thats why its usually used.
Its very easy to do. You crush the garlic slightly so it releases its juices then cut it into chuncks (not too small) and put it in a jar. Pour over the honey or agave syrup till its completely submerged 👍🏼 close the airtight container and put it in a dark and rather warm area. Let it sit for a few weeks.
The garlic will become very gooey and sweet (a bit like black garlic). Its amazing!
Nope havent heard of asafoetida. Will look into it 🌞
Amazing! Thank you so much 🙏🏽 Yes, I know honey is pure medicine... but I don't use it because the bees...🐝🌱
Airtight? And it doesn't create too much pressure when fermenting? Or do you open it every now and then to let the gas out? Sounds so delicious. I'll see if I can get some garlic today and make a small batch to try. I've bought once garlic in olive oil... also very delicious... but I think that garlic wasn't raw...Thank you for sharing 💜💫
Youre very welcome!
Yes i understand 🐝🧡
With the honey garlic fermentation i have not had to "burp" glasses like with kimchi yet.
I think its fine. But make sure You dont fill it up to the top. Leave a finger thickness of air or more in there.
