Recipe: Fermented Corn
Fermented corn, or sour corn as some call it, is a very simple ferment and is definitely something to add to your must-try list. The juicy kernels are sour and pack an exciting burst of flavor, making it delicious enough to eat on its own or to use it as a relish. We love keeping a jar in the fridge and snacking on it with tortilla chips and even just eating it with a spoon. Seriously, it’s that good.

Recipe: Lacto-Fermented Jalapeños
Fermented jalapeños are a deliciously spicy ingredient we keep on hand to jazz up any meal. These piquant little peppers pack loads of flavor and are incredibly versatile. When jalapeños are lacto-fermented, they develop a tangy flavor that balances out the spice. Don’t get us wrong, these peppers are spicy, but leveled with a nice pickled tang.

Recipe: Fermented Cherries
Fermented cherries are salty, tangy and super savory: kind of like the love child of a maraschino cherry and an olive. Which is probably why one of our favorite uses is plunked into a cocktail. If you’re looking for something sweet: make pie. But if you want to take a walk on the savory side these fermented cherries are excellent on a cheese board, as a tangy pizza topping (think white pies) and as a fun twist on a cocktail garnish.

Recipe: Lacto-Pickled Radish Slices
We wanted to find a way to get the wonderful flavors of the taqueria without, you know, the actual taco. These lacto-fermented radishes fit the bill. Sliced paper thin and brined with red onion, cilantro and jalapeño, they nail that magical cross section of flavor: tart, crunchy, bright, funky, and spicy.
