Did you know?
Lacto-fermentation is the gateway to unlock deep flavour and layered complexity in food - it’s also great for your gut. What is Lacto-fermentation? Well, it’s a preservation method where natural bacteria called Lactobacillus converts sugars into lactic acid. Commonly used for pickling vegetables and requires salt, vegetables, and water - no canning, no fancy equipment.
Geography.

It pairs wonderfully with noodle soup or Bahn mi. Perfect with grilled pork or even splashed over eggplant that's been cooked over fire.
