Basic Fermented Garlic Cloves

About as easy as any ferment gets, let’s take a look at how to ferment garlic cloves!

Ingredients:

Garlic Cloves (as many as you desire to ferment

Fermentools Himalayan Powdered Salt

Filtered Water

Directions:

(1) Peel your garlic and place them into your desired size jar leaving at least an inch from the top.

(2) Measure out the proper amount of salt according to the Fermentools Himalayan Powdered Salt package and place into the jar with the garlic. Cover the garlic with non-chlorinated water. I usually place a lid on the jar and give it a good shake to dissolve the salt.

(3) Place your Fermentools Airlock system on top of your jar and allow your garlic to ferment for 3-4 week before transferring them into the fridge.

That’s Really It!

Depending on how much garlic you’re fermenting, you may want to consider adding a 6-pack or 12-pack of Fermentool’s Fermenting Kits to your tool belt.
