Traditional Japanese Fermented Veggies: NukaZuke Class

A great way to promote gut health and reduce food waste - Nukazuke is an ancient wisdom filled with UMAMI!

Traditionally, every Japanese household has their own special Nuka Zuke recipe which are pickled vegetables fermented in rice bran. We don't actually eat the rice bran which is what we call Nuka but it is made in a Nuka-doko (Nuka-"bed"), which is a box where the fermentation happens. This is usually passed on from mother to daughter for generations.

You can ferment almost any kind of vegetable with this method! Typical veggies include: eggplants, Japanese daikon radish, cabbage, carrots and cucumbers ...you name it!

The taste of Nuka pickles can vary from pleasantly tangy to mild sour, salty and a bit pungent. If you learn how to manage your Nuka-doko, which is basically the bed of rice bran where you ferment your veggies, you can use it several times!
