Making fermented oranges


Why Ferment Oranges?
During the fermentation process, the salt draws out moisture from the oranges and forms a natural brine. This environment encourages lactic acid bacteria to break down the sugars in the fruit. Over time, this transforms the oranges into something salty, sour, slightly fizzy, and packed with deep citrus flavor.
Fermented oranges pair beautifully with rich meats, like brawn or lamb, and can cut through fattiness with ease. They also add a zesty, tangy twist to salads, grain bowls, stews, or even a simple garlic mayo sandwich. Just a few pieces go a long way.
