Our Ferments

Fermentation was my missing piece of the puzzle. It gave meaning to everything I'm passionate about in the kitchen. Today, it's woven into everything I cook.

Haricoco ferments

Haricoco Ferments is an important addition to Haricoco’s philosophy

To make our food system more sustainable we must look back into ancient food conservation techniques. These techniques have been used for at least 9000 years, and maybe longer!

Fermentation is the intentional food transformation in collaboration with microbes. In case of Lacto Fermentation, these microbes are mainly lactobacillus bacteria (known as one of our happy gut bacteria). During Fermentation we basically create an ideal environment for these bacteria to thrive.

There are many official sources on the internet that can guide you further into the overall health benefits of eating living foods. At Haricoco our focus is flavour, followed by connection (with microbes and communities) to reduce waste and empower individuals to enjoy a more sustainable food system.

Haricoco offers a Ferment exchange service

We realize that not everyone has the time nor space to start their own fermentation projects. We offer a vessel exchange service. Meaning you give us your empty fermenting pot and we give you a full one back. Place your order one week ahead, so we can ferment to your own personal liking.

Pick up can be at a certain time at a relay point, or on our own fermentation vessel.
