@kirstykaminski: EP 1/25 — Fermentation 101: Welcome to my new series, where I’ll teach you how to safely ferment at home in 25 days 🫙✨ 
Before we dig into all the specifics of how to get that bubbly jar going, let’s dive into the basics: What even is fermentation? How does it work and what are its origins? Fermentation is a natural process where bacteria and yeast break down sugars and starches in foods and transform them into flavorful, nourishing, and long-lasting goodness. 🥒

It’s been used for centuries across every culture as a way to preserve food, especially when harvests were unpredictable and resources needed to last, but also to make food more digestible and certain nutrients more bio available. 🍊 It is a powerful way to support gut health and reconnect with how our food is made — inviting us to slow down, observe, and take part in the process instead of rushing to the result. Over the next weeks I’ll be teaching you all the basics, bust the myths and set you up with the confidence to start your first successful ferment!
