Sourdough bread is one of the oldest and most natural ways to make bread, using only flour, water, salt, and time. Instead of commercial yeast, sourdough relies on a living starter made from wild yeast and bacteria, which gives the bread its unique flavor, chewy texture, and better digestibility. Make your Sourdough Starter To make a sourdough starter, begin by mixing equal parts flour and water (e.g. 50g of each) in a clean jar until you have a thick, smooth batter. Leave the mixture loosely covered at room temperature so natural yeast from the environment can begin to grow. Each day, discard about half of the mixture and feed it again with fresh flour and water in equal parts, stirring well and returning it to rest. After several days, the mixture will begin to bubble, rise, and develop a pleasantly sour smell. When the starter consistently doubles in size within a few hours of feeding, it is active and ready to use for baking. Maintaining your Starter If baking often, feed daily, keep at room temperature if baking sometimes, feed once a week, keep in fridge, (before baking take out of the fridge, feed once or twice until bubbly Sourdough Preparation Ingredients: 100g Sourdough Starter, 350g water, 500g Wheat Flour (or all Purpose Flour), 10g Salt In a Large Bowl mix the Sourdough Starter with Water until cloudy. Add Flour & Salt . Mix until no dry flour remain. Cover and rest for 30mins. Stretch and Fold the dough (to build strength), every 30mins pull one side of the dough up and fold over, turn bowl and repeat 4 times Cover between each set. Let the dough rest until it increases 50-75% in size (looks airy with bubbles). This takes around 3-5hrs depending on the temperature Place your dough on a floured surface and shape into a loose round, rest uncovered for 20mins Shape tightly into a round or oval, place seam-side up in a floured basket or towel lined bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight Baking Preheat your over to 240°C (465°F) for at least 30mins placing an empty metal tray on the bottom rack to help create steam. Turn dough onto baking paper, mark the top with a sharp blade, place it onto a different pre-heated baking tray, in the oven Carefully pour a cup of hot water into the empty tray at the bottom of the oven to create steam, then quickly close the oven door to trap the moisture. After about 20minutes, remove the tray of water and continue baking until the loaf is deep golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Once baked, transfer the bread to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.

Kimchi is a traditional Korean fermented vegetable dish most commonly made with napa cabbage, salt, chili, garlic, and time. Instead of relying on cooking, kimchi develops its complex spicy, sour, and umami flavor through natural fermentation, where beneficial bacteria transform the seasoned cabbage over several days or weeks. Ingredients: (for 2kg Kimchi) 1.5-2kg Napa Cabbage, 70g Coarse Sea Salt, 2-3L Water 25-45g Chili Flakes, 20g Minced Garlic, 6g Grated Ginger 30g Fish Sauce, 12g Sugar 50g chopped green onions, 70g julienned Carrot, 150g julienned radish (optional 16g rice flour, 240g water) (Vegetarian option, replace the fish sauce with soy sauce) Instructions: Cut the cabbage lengthwise into quarters, sprinkle the coarse salt evenly between leaf layers (The salt will draw out the moisture and soften the cabbage) Place into a large bowl and add enough water to almost submerge the cabbage. Let is soak for 2-3hours occasionally turning it. Once flexible but not mushy, rinse the cabbage thoroughly 2–3 times to remove excess salt and let it drain well. [(Optional) In a sauce pan, combine the Rice Flour & Water , cook over low heat, stir until thick & cool down down (you made " Slurry " helping to thicken the kimchi paste)] In a bowl mix the Chili Flakes , Garlic , Ginger , Fish Sauce , Sugar , [add the slurry if using]. and stir to form a rich and thick paste. Add the Green Onions , Carrots , Radish and mix until evenly coated Wearing gloves, spread the kimchi paste generously between every cabbage leaf, ensuring the seasoning reaches from the base to the tips so each layer is well flavored. Gently fold the seasoned cabbage quarters and pack them tightly into a clean container or jar, pressing down firmly to remove trapped air and help release natural juices that will aid fermentation. Leave the packed kimchi at room temperature for 1–2 days so fermentation can begin, during which time it will start to develop a slightly tangy aroma and small bubbles. After this initial fermentation, transfer the container to the refrigerator, where the kimchi will continue to mature slowly, becoming more sour and complex over 1–2 weeks depending on taste preference.
