    Recipe: Fermented Corn

    Fermented corn, or sour corn as some call it, is a very simple ferment and is definitely something to add to your must-try list. The juicy kernels are sour and pack an exciting burst of flavor, making it delicious enough to eat on its own or to use it as a relish. We love keeping a jar in the fridge and snacking on it with tortilla chips and even just eating it with a spoon. Seriously, it’s that good.
