FERMENTATION

Fermentation is an ancient technique used to transform, as well as preserve many varieties of foods and drinks. As a consequence, not only do fermented foods last a very long time, but they are claimed to have more bio-available nutrients and to be more digestible than their raw or cooked counterparts. As microbes have undone (digested) much of what nature had locked up by breaking down cell walls, this may ring true. There may also be many more benefits behind fermentation that science will shortly show us in the EU and when EFSA (European Food Safety Authority = FDA in the US) establishes that, we’ll share that knowledge with you. Fermentation has also been used throughout the world for millennia and by almost every single culture.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB´s), that lead to the fermentation of various substrates are prehistoric and present on all fruits, vegetables, raw milk, etc., along with being present on virtually everything, including ourselves. With the absence of oxygen, crucial to the suppression of dangerous moulds and yeasts, lactic acid bacteria begin to metabolise any given organic substrate and produce antimicrobial and anti-pathogenic substances, namely Lactic Acid, which produces an environment with a Ph that is intolerable to unwanted microbes.

There are also beneficial moulds and yeasts that not only ferment but are essential to the fermentation of products such as alcohol, kombucha, kefir, bread, as well as cheese and lend themselves to rich flavour profiles in said products.

BENEFITS OF FERMENTATION

Fermented food has a great deal of benefits

Fermentation is one of the oldest food preservation techniques, creating an unsuitable environment for unhealthy microbes.

Fermented goods like Sauerkraut, Kimchi, Kefir and Kombucha are versatile and make a part of a healthy and balanced diet.

We don’t pasteurise our fermented goods. Experiencing the evolution in flavours from young to mature is the beauty behind fermentation.
