Lost in the Kraut

Our take on Sauerkraut. The devout kraut heads would be shaking their kraut heads indeed. Until they try it and then they'd be nodding with approval wanting more and more until it's all gone.

With this super small batch which was done as a response to being asked if we would be making sauerkraut when telling people we make ferments. This is a bit more than just fermented cabbage of course...

Having a fresh harvest of cabbage, Russian garlic, a couple of chillis, some herby spice, some smoke from bloodwood sourced from the forest on the property and a bit of time, there was really only one thing left. Music!

Powered by a song with similar levels of attitude, we wanted to impart even more attitude into what was already going to be a pretty epic kraut. So this special ferment had the extra care of being played a song called "Lost in the Crowd" by Bassnectar.

The cabbage is pink in colour due to the addition of some red cabbage for good measure and has a bit of spice with a great smokey flavour that makes it somewhat meaty.

Apart from the salt this is a 100% Shedhouse Farm sourced product.
