Ferment at Home—Making Sauerkraut and more

Wednesdays at 4 p.m. PST we’re live on Facebook. This week, inspired by Oktoberfest, we got salty with some homemade sauerkraut, fermented radicchio, home-brewed beer, and sausages. 

Watch while Sun Basket’s Senior Content Marketing Manager, Sean Timberlake, and Content Project Manager, Christina Stork, show Front End Developer Andy Van Wart how to get funky, putting him to work cutting and massaging cabbage and chicories. Data Scientist Koji Hamada brings his fermentation knowledge to the fore in the form of beer (he’s studying to be a cicerone, aka certified beer expert). Fermenting vegetables at home is so easy and it’s a great way to get more probiotics into your diet. All you need are vegetables, salt, and a few common kitchen items (bowl, jar, knife, ziploc bag) and you can make your own. Once you’re hooked, you can get cool gizmos like those shown in the video. #krautgoals

And tune in on Friday, October 27th at 4 pm when we’re live with the Amber Stott, Chief Food Genius of Food Literacy Center showing you our tips and tricks for cooking with beets.
