Place the whole bulbs into a roasting bag and seal it loosely.

Just wrapped an amazing fermentation workshop in Dubai with Sharon Flynn (the author of Wild Drinks and Ferment For Good) for Campari Red Hands.
We explored ginger bugs, water kefir, amazake sodas & kvass — proving that complex, probiotic drinks can be low-cost, high-impact, and full of life!

Some ginger bug action. Ever wondered how to ferment any probiotic-rich soda? Just add a tad of ginger bug!

Posted a detailed recipe on my website cosmos-society.com

Fermenting mirin with whiskey and koji.

The fermentation process of mirin is based on the enzymatic action of koji.

Just combine the ingredients and wait 😃
