This is a kimchi styled cultured vegetable made with a lemon, garlic and jalapeno paste — the difference between this and another of our krauts is the processing. With kimchi, the vegetables are wilted in salt before being cultured which allows them to retain the crispy crunchy texture of a raw vegetable. The flavor is mild but the nose is a strong rich fresh garlic. This is a great introduction to cultured vegetables and easy to incorporate. The vegetables are crisp and delicious — it is a great source of Vitamin C and probiotic cultures!

Marmalades are some of the oldest forms of preserves — working with the natural sugars and pectins in the fruit seeds and skins to extend their shelf life and create a bright and delicious spread.
