Fermentation

Do you recognize the pictures below? If you go back to my previous post; Polish soup (Zurek), you’ll find the fermentation of rye flour occurring. This brings us to the topic today which is fermentation. Funny how ideas pop up in your head while you’re doing something or cooking. In my case, I was waiting for the fermentation process to finish. I thought to myself; fermentation would be an interesting topic to research for my next blog.

Polish soup (Zurek)

This polish soup is so good. You can find the recipe on page 124 in Antoni in the kitchen book by Antoni Porowski. He calls it “The polish hangover soup”. The fermentation of the rye helps you recover from a long night of partying, called Zakwas in Polish. Also, don’t forget to thank the factory workers who are putting food on our tables during this pandemic ❤️.
