“I have been making kimchi from garden veggies since 2005 and brewing kombucha just as long. I have taken workshops with Sandor Katz and studied the biochemical process of fermentation. I am a true believer in the value of healthy gut bacteria. We eat kimchi daily at our house (with essentially every savory meal) and make roughly 1 gallon every month.”
