{"product_id":"wild-garlic-kraut","title":"Wild Garlic Kraut","description":"\u003cp\u003eWild garlic season is one of our favourite times of the year, and we like to commemorate it by infusing its goodness into a seasonal sauerkraut! Crafted with freshly foraged wild garlic, this kraut shines with clean, tangy flavours backed up by that all important wild garlic goodness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTry me in a salad, with grilled fish, a cheeseboard, BBQ or (and we highly recommend this!) eat me straight from the jar!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSUITABLE FOR VEGANS - RAW - ALIVE - UNPASTEURISED\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisclaimer: Vegetables were harmed in the making of this product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e#FERMENTSFIGHTINGFOODWASTE\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis classic sauerkraut shines as an example of how darned delicious sauerkraut can be. The subtle garlicky-goodness flecks the tang and savouriness which comes from fermenting cabbage for 21 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe finely shred our sauerkrauts to make sure you’ve got crunchy full coverage on your sandwich, cracker or pitta bread. Cutting our veg finely ensures maximum flavour distribution in every forkful, and we think it looks kind of pretty too 💚\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSauerkraut literally means ‘sour cabbage’ in German.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTANGY - SALTY - SAVOURY - SOUR\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSalt is key for flavour and safety, selecting beneficial lactic acid bacteria. Fermentation unlocks bold flavours through the production of acids and volatile compounds. The signature sourness comes from lactic acid, with hints of acetic, malic, and propionic acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe use wild fermentation, meaning we don’t add pre-defined cultures but rely on naturally occurring bacteria. These microbes transform ordinary cabbage into something extraordinary!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFermented vegetables are even safer than raw produce! Lactic acid bacteria lower the pH, outcompeting harmful microbes and enhancing flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFermented foods might support gut health, though strong scientific studies are still needed. While some companies claim ‘probiotic’ or ‘immune-supporting’ benefits, we simply promote our ferments as a healthy addition to a varied diet by showcasing vegetables in a different light and providing beneficial live microbes in every forkful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow to eat:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIngredient\u003c\/strong\u003e: Add flavour to soups, noodles, broths, and stews.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide dish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Swap for coleslaw or salads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondiment\u003c\/strong\u003e: Replace chutneys, gherkins, and sauces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTopper\u003c\/strong\u003e: Elevate toast, crackers, sandwiches, stir-fries, pasta, hot dogs, and burgers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeaking or bubbling jars?
