I just thought I'd drop my favorite fermentations I've done in the past 4 years.

First was a berry wine. "Aged" 6 months... I just HAD to taste it. Verdict: You can't go wrong with that, I do believe.

Next was getting a massive kombucha operation going. 'Nuff said.

Then, around the same time, we had all the ingredients to make: Brussels sprouts 'kraut, pickled watermelon rinds, and hot carrots ("zanahorias", lacto fermented carrots, with onions and jalapenos)...

I LOVED that Brussels-kraut. I was so sad when it ran out.

The carrots and watermelon ferments then got ADDED TOGETHER, as the hot carrots where too hot, and the watermelon were *blah*... but together, it's a winner. Sweet and sour and salty, and spiced, to boot.
