Lacto Fermented Vegetables Fermented Carrots

🧂 Ingredients

1 Once your carrots are peeled and sliced add them to a mason jar so they are 1
inch from the top.
2 Prepare a salt brine by dissolving salt in water.  
3 Pour brine into the mason jar until carrots are covered.  
4 Optional: add any additional flavourings such as pickling spices or fresh dill
or basil.  
5 Put the lid on the jar and store at room temperature in a dark place like your
closet or cupboard. 
6 Open the jar once a day to release carbon dioxide. Fermentation fans call this
“burping.” 
7 Continue this process for 3-4 weeks until fermentation bubbles no longer form.  
8 Move the jar to your fridge once fermentation has completed and enjoy for the
next 3-6 months.
