Increase The Nutrition Of Food By Fermenting! | Easy Fermented Carrots

Wash and peel the carrots, then cut them into sticks or rounds.

In a large bowl, dissolve salt in water to create a brine.

Add garlic, ginger, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, bay leaves, and red pepper flakes to the brine.

Place the carrot sticks into a clean jar, packing them tightly.

Pour the brine over the carrots until they are fully submerged.

Add cabbage leaves on top to keep the carrots submerged.

Seal the jar loosely to allow gases to escape during fermentation.

Leave the jar at room temperature for 3-7 days, checking daily.

Taste the carrots after 3 days; ferment until desired tanginess is reached.

Once fermented, seal the jar tightly and refrigerate.

Enjoy the fermented carrots as a tangy side dish or snack.

Use within a month for best flavor.
