Spicy Fermented Pineapple

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole pineapple cut into wedges
  • 1 small jalapeño thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon culture starter or 1 Tablespoon of whey
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • water to fill

Instructions
 

  • Place sliced jalapeños in a one quart mason jar.
  • Add pineapple wedges to the jar, cramming as many in as possible.
  • Add the salt and culture starter.
  • Fill with water, leaving an inch of headspace.
  • Place a lid and leave on the counter to ferment for 2 to 4 days.

Notes

I use air locks on my jars. This isn't necessary, of course. A simple mason jar lid will be just fine.
