A big thank you to Kirsten K. Shockey for joining us inside The
Fermentation Hub yesterday for our Intentional Ingredients tutorial
ONIONS: from humble to hero.

What began as a tutorial on fermenting onions became a much wider and
fascinating conversation about fermentation.

Highlights included:

• Why onions behave differently from cabbage during fermentation
• When to use dry fermentation vs brine fermentation for the onion family
• The idea of single-ingredient ferments when you have a surplus of produce
• A thoughtful discussion on harnessing ambient microbes, starter cultures and unusual ingredients

I’ve added captions and timestamps so you can easily jump to the sections most relevant to you.
