No fancy recipes but I have an old 6 gallon crock going into week 4 full of cabbage. In the fall I make collard-kraut for lack of a better word.
My wife does carrots, beets and fermented pickles when we get garden surplus. Mostly just the salt though. Well, she does add garlic and stuff to the pickles.
I made a green onion ferment one time that was pretty amazing. I had sooooo many green onions that year. I chopped them up and mixed them with lots of ginger and garlic. Probably some gochujang went in, too. It was a very potent condiment.
i’ve made a fermented grated sunchoke relish that’s really nice - the sweet of the sunchoke gets balanced by the sourness of fermentation. a little garlic in there, too. i haven’t made it in the spring with wintered-over ‘chokes, but i imagine they’d just be that much sweeter.
this relish does tend to turn slowly to a rather unfortunate grey color in storage, for what it’s worth.
