Spicy Kimchi
​
I like to make a large batch of this in a one gallon glass jar. This is what got me successfully through this winter as a raw vegan.
​
You Will Need:
Chinese cabbage x2
Green onion x 1 bunch
Apple (leave peel on) x2
Carrot x5 peeled
Daikon Radish (one giant one, peeled)
Garlic x1 head
Fresh Ginger x 3″ chunk
Dried chilli powder x8 TBSP
Pink Himalayan Salt x 4 TBSP

Protective Gloves.

chop cabbage and massage for 5-10 min with salt, let sit for 2 hours min and rinse.

Chop all the veggies in a food processor. Mix in a very large bowl with cabbage and chilli powder.
​
Pack firmly into glass jar and let sit for 3-4 days at room temperature. Depending on the season & indoor temperature could be a day earlier or later. Taste to ensure the right flavour profile and or desired tanginess. Refrigerate once desired flavour has been reached.

Lacto Fermented Pickled Peppers
Easy Pickled Peppers. Make as spicy as you like!
 
Prep Time 10 minutes
 Servings
INGREDIENTS

• 3 TBSP Pink Himalayan Salt (or any good quality salt)
• 1 Gallon Filtered water (I have done this before with reg. tap water)
• 5-6 Peppers Sliced
• 2 Cloves garlic
• 1 Red Onion Sliced
• 3 TBSP Pickling Spice Blend
• 1 TSP Red Chilli Flakes (optional, omit if you don't want any spice)

RECIPE NOTESThese usually take 3-4 days on the counter.

​Put pickling spices & chilli flakes in a jar, add sliced peppers, 2 cloves garlic and sliced onion. Cover in salted water (Disolve 3 tbsp salt to 1 L of water). The water will turn slightly cloudy as the peppers are pickling, that’s a good sign. Taste test each day until they are pickled to your liking (for me it was 4 days on the counter). Add red chilli flakes for a spicy pepper. Refrigerate when ready.
TIP: You want to keep everything submerged under the liquid. To do so you may need to place a weight on top of the jar like a juice glass (that's what I used). 
Good Luck!
