SPECIFIC EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
- FOOD PROCESSOR OR GRATER
INGREDIENTS FOR A 4-LITER JAR
- 6 organic yellow lemons
- 1 kg of zucchini
- 1 large cabbage
- 1 kg of fennel
- 100 g of ginger
- A few centiliters of seawater
- Optional: a handful of dried seaweed flakes or a large bunch of aromatic herbsaromatiques
Preparation
Grate the vegetables and lemons using a food processor or a simple grater. Place everything in a large container, then add the finely chopped seaweed or herbs. Mix thoroughly until the preparation becomes homogeneous.
Transfer it into a jar or a rubber-sealed glass container, pressing it down as much as possible. Stop about 2 cm below the rim, then add seawater until the container is full.
Store it at room temperature in a sink or another container (as it may release liquid during the first few days). Wait at least 3 weeks before tasting.
Tips
- Since tastes are directly connected to our needs — which differ from person to person — it is up to you to adjust the types of vegetables and the quantities, which have intentionally been left imprecise.
