An exciting collaboration with Willys ACV. Fermentation is the magical process of transforming a food product into something tastier, longer lasting and better for our health. It’s no coincidence that many of our favourite foods are made using fermentation techniques. Wine, cheese, beer and bread all contain complex flavour profiles which stimulate our palates and leave us wanting more. Fermenting at home allows us to experiment with these interesting flavours as well as preserving waste food and boosting our gut health. It’s no wonder fermentation is fast becoming a popular new hobby for food lovers.
