Let’s get fermenting, shall we? I realized that I have been slacking on the fermentation front, hence I decided to do something about it. I think the last recipes I shared were the fermented green tomatoes recipe and the fermented honey garlic recipe, right? Well, today I will be featuring this fermented onion relish recipe.
I usually find all my new fermentation recipes on Pinterest, and this one is no different. As usual you can invest on fancy fermenting equipment or you can choose to just improvise with a simple mason jar. The later may involve a little more work, however the end product will be pretty much the same. Although you can add raw starter culture to speed up fermentation, it is optional. The turmeric is also optional, if you either do not have any or do not like the taste.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Here’s What You’ll Need:
- medium fresh onions
- red bell peppers
- jalapeno pepper
- red pepper flakes
- organic ground cumin
- organic turmeric (optional)
- sea salt or other mineral rich salt
- raw sauerkraut OR whey (optional)
- pounder or fork
- fermentation jar weights (optional)
- bowl
- quart mason jar
- airlock lid (optional)
Prep your onions and peppers as instructed. Add the onions, salt, peppers and spice into the bowl. The onions need to be crushed before you transfer to the mason jar. Any starter culture can then be added, water is used to fill up the jar. After weighing down the vegetable matter, you have to weight it before screwing on the lid. Allow to ferment for up to 7 days, if using a lid don’t forget to burp your jar every few days. When ready store in your fridge for up to 6 months.
