ABOUT US
We are the Fermentation Ninja, Geru and Titus - once kimchi, always kimchi.
Although the wild fermentation seized us many years ago, it developed into passion and fervor in autumn 2015 when each of us wanted to conjure up the best kimchi in the world, our world.
Then there was no stopping. No turnip, no tuber, no cabbage, and no fruit at the weekly market could hide from us.
Our kitchen mutated into a fermentation lab, in the hallway the shoe rack and wardrobe had to give way to the new storage shelves and the cellar burst at the seams with embedded ferments.
Our hearts still beat for classics like sauerkraut, kefir and sourdough bread. In the meantime, we are dedicated above all to creative ferments that have sprung up in our experimental years, as well as old, almost forgotten recipes and traditions from all over the world.
In our products, we rely mostly on sustainably grown food from the regions of Berlin Brandenburg and Mecklenburg Vorpommern (where we live) and like to engage with local farmers wherever we go.
On our trips, we look forward to every rarity we find. And of course, with particularly exotic recipes from distant realms of the world, we depend on imports from these specific regions.
Not only is fermentation durable and eating healthier, but it's also a creative art and a way of living, a YES to life.
This love for bacteria & Co., as well as our combined knowledge, we convey at our workshops and events.
