My favorite holiday dish is... this wild rice and roasted vegetable salad! It's flavorful and delicious and feeds everyone (vegans, gluten-free diet, nut-free, soy-free). berriesandbarnacles.com/wild-rice-sa... #food #holidayfood #vegan #glutenfree

From my other blog... a favorite holiday recipe! Gluten-free fruit cake. 😀 berriesandbarnacles.com/our-familys-... #glutenfree #fruitcake #recipe

Sourdough panettone? Yes, please! Here is my take on this seasonal treat. If you've never had panettone, it's a cross between bread and cake and is lightly flavored with citrus and dried fruit. www.fermentingforfoodies.com/sourdough-pa... #sourdough #fermentation #Xmas

Not a fermentation recipe... but another project I've been working on! I'm now up to 4 beeswax bowl covers. 😀 berriesandbarnacles.com/beeswax-bowl...

I have a bunch of posts that are based on Frequently Asked Questions about fermentation or fermented foods. This is one of them... I was even asked it by my physiotherapist. 😂 How can you fix a ferment that is too salty to enjoy? www.fermentingforfoodies.com/how-to-fix-a...

This recipe came from my husband's Danish coworker. It needed a bit of adjustment to work with local ingredients. The results are delicious! If you're into a hearty, Scandinavian-style sourdough rye bread, then this recipe is for you! www.fermentingforfoodies.com/danish-sourd... #sourdough #rye

In addition to blogging, I'm also a food writer/columnist for two parenting magazines. 😁 This pumpkin and cream cheese recipe was something I developed for the magazines last year. And a year later, I published it on my blog. 🎃 Happy Halloween! 👻 #pumpkin #pumpkinmuffins #glutenfreebaking

I've been woefully bad at keeping up with this account. But I'm once again determined to ween myself off of the other social media platforms. It's hard being the first to transition! Meanwhile, here is a post about my favorite ferment of this past summer. Fermented wild foraged fruits!

"All I did was swap the all-purpose flour for whole wheat—no big deal. And I think eggs are gross, so I used soaked chia seeds instead, which was a major improvement to this recipe I had never made before."

Fermented currants are probably one of my favorite fermented condiments. The flavor is perfect with savory meals (particularly BBQ). www.fermentingforfoodies.com/fermented-cu... #fermentingforfoodies #fermentedfruit

My latest blog post is all about drying herbs in paper bags. 😂 It's such an easy concept that it probably didn't need its own blog post... but I was hoping to encourage others to try it. It's a sustainable and zero-waste option! berriesandbarnacles.com/the-easiest-...

My garlic scapes are forming! So excited for my favorite June ferment. www.fermentingforfoodies.com/fermented-ga...

Does anyone have a different culinary use for dandelion root? I typically use it for tea mixes (or I guess a coffee substitute, but I'm not a coffee drinker). berriesandbarnacles.com/roasted-dand... #dandelion #tea #forage

I was photographing for a new blog post (featuring the mean green ferment below) and decided a group shot was needed. This is about 1/4 of what is stashed in my fridge at the moment. 😂 www.fermentingforfoodies.com/fermented-co... www.fermentingforfoodies.com/japanese-shi...

Not a fermentation recipe... but I've started making jam with gelatin so that I can control the added sugar (or use a sugar alternative). 😄🍓 It's super easy and quick. And I love it because my kids get their after school PPJ without a heap of sugar. #jam #food #foodsky

Brad wanted to brew a lower alcohol beer, something that would fall between near-beer and regular brews. So we developed a Spring Session Ale! Named for our springtime brewing period. It's patio perfect. ☀️😎 www.fermentingforfoodies.com/spring-sessi... #ferment #homebrew #beer

My strawberries are blooming bright and starting to set fruit, which means it's time for strawberry ferments! I usually make a simple, sweet ferment. The berries are served like jam or sauce... but the liquid is my favorite part. It's delicious mixed into sparkling water. 🍓😃

My latest recipe is designed to use up extra sourdough starter. Anyone who follows me knows I don't believe in sourdough discard. Instead I have recipes that use sourdough in place of flour like this oatmeal muffin recipe! 😎 www.fermentingforfoodies.com/oatmeal-sour... #sourdough #baking #ferment

Another spring ferment is coming to my kitchen really soon! Excited to see that my garlic scapes are forming. 😀 If you haven't tried fermented scapes... then you're missing out. It's possibly my favorite harbinger of summer. www.fermentingforfoodies.com/fermented-ga... #garlicscapes #fermentation

It's nettle season! And of course I created a fermentation recipe to feature this abundant (and usually free) spring green. Fermented nettle paste is a boost of flavor for everything from pasta to soups and stews. www.fermentingforfoodies.com/fermented-ne... #fermented #fermentation #nettle

My latest recipe was developed as a way to use up flavored yogurt and it turned into a favorite! Simply mix 5 ingredients together, bake, and eat! I made it with GF flour for the photos, but my daughter (age 12) tested it with whole wheat flour as well. 😄 berriesandbarnacles.com/quick-flavor...

So excited for rhubarb season! It's the harbinger of spring in my garden. And my FAVORITE way to enjoy rhubarb is with fermentation! (of course 😆). It takes away the tartness without requiring a lot of extra sugar. ☀️ www.fermentingforfoodies.com/sweet-fermen...

Just set up another batch of fermented black soya beans. It's something I always have in my pantry these days. So good for bringing umami to the party. www.fermentingforfoodies.com/fermented-bl...

Probably the #1 question I get from readers, "is my ferment ok?" People want to know if it's doing what it's supposed to do because in real life fermentation doesn't always look like the TikTok video. Here are my answers all summed up in one post: www.fermentingforfoodies.com/what-is-wron...

Shio koji is one of my go-to ferments. It is always in my kitchen. As someone with a gluten allergy, it's my go-to condiment for adding salt and umami to everything. It's also: - super easy - zerowaste - delicious www.fermentingforfoodies.com/japanese-shi...

This applies to my book, Fermenting Made Simple! touchwoodeditions.com/products/fer...

Cleaning out my saved Reddit posts and found this gem for interpreting sourdough crumb structure as it relates to fermentation time. Plenty of other factors that go into crumb structure (shaping/folding, starter, flour mix, etc), but fermentation time is crucial. This reference is the 🐐 #breadsky

I will be demonstrating two ways to ferment mushrooms at #thewellnessshow in #YVR this Saturday at noon! I'll have samples, cookbooks, and ferments to share. Here are my brine fermented mushrooms all set and ready to go. 😄 Hope to see you there! www.fermentingforfoodies.com/fermented-mu...
