Ingredients
(use organic where possible)
- 1kg carrots, peeled and chopped into sticks
- Knob of fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp juniper berries
- Filtered water
- ¼ cup coconut kefir
- Cabbage leaves
Directions
- Place the carrots, grated ginger, juniper berries, and kefir in a 2 L fermenting jar.
- Cover with water until the carrots are completely submerged in liquid.
- Use the cabbage leaves to hold down the carrots under the brine line so the carrots don't go moldy. Make sure you leave some space between the vegetables and the top of the jar.
- Seal and leave to ferment for 3 days.
- Transfer to the fridge.
Notes*
