Fermentation 101: Everything About Natural Fermentation

5 min read

Fermentation is one of the oldest and most natural food preservation methods that humans have used for thousands of years.

What is Fermentation?

Fermentation is a process in which microorganisms such as bacteria, yeasts or fungi convert sugars and carbohydrates into acid, gas or alcohol. For fermented pickles, lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus) are responsible for this process.

Why is Natural Fermentation Better?

Natural fermentation is different from vinegar or chemical pickling. In natural fermentation, beneficial bacteria are alive and act as probiotics. These bacteria help the health of the digestive system.
