Fermented Vegetables
I've been experimenting with a traditional recipe for improving the flavour and nutrition of vegetables and I think I've cracked it.⠀
⠀
You feed them to a cow.⠀
⠀
The cow, through the patient application of four stomachs takes the carrots, the cabbage, the kale stalks, the broccoli stems nobody wanted, and quietly sorts the lot out in a field.⠀
⠀
Several months of this and the cow hands back a version of those vegetables that is bioavailable, nutrient-dense, and, crucially, delicious.⠀
⠀
The cabbage becomes ribeye. The carrots become brisket. The kale becomes the fat around a kidney that tastes like the field it came from.⠀
⠀
I've started calling it fermentation. The cow has not been informed.
