Welcome to Gutsy Ferments - Creators of Delicious Fermented Food

Here at Gutsy we're all about fermented food that's made for your gut. We're a bit different from others in Australia who make fermented food including Sauerkraut and Kimchi, here are some of the reasons why:
1. We LOVE fermenting!
2. Gutsy ferments in Oak Barrels (no plastics)
3. We wildly ferment our veggies (no artificial cultures)
4. Our veggies are fermented for weeks (not days)
5. All our vegetables arecertified organic
6. Gutsy fermented food products have 100% Australian Ingredients
7. Gutsy's fermented vegetables are Kosher
8. We run workshops to show and teach you what we do

We're also constantly playing around with other fermented things. Check out our online shop to see what's new.

CHEESEY BRUSSEL SPROUTS 😍 I didn't make my own cheesey sauce this time (@theglutenfreefoodco saving my lazy ass 😂), and it seriously took less than 30 minutes to put together - and most of that time was oven time! Topped with @gutsyferments kraut + avo, and served with a side of pumpkin soup ✌⁠

We've been busy jarring Beetroot & Citrus Kraut th

This year’s winter is a chilly one, indeed! ❄️It’s imperative to keep our immune system strong to fight off any winter colds with gut-healthy soups. ⁠
⁠
Recently, I find myself craving a warm cup of soup upon rising most mornings. You can't beat a good creamy pumpkin soup - particularly when it's instantly made more nourishing with the addition of @bestofthebone Concentrate and some kraut/pickle juice. ⁠
⁠
One of my favourite things about pumpkin soup is how simple it is to make. All I have to do is make sure that I have got some baked pumpkin leftover from a previous meal and it's whipped up in a jiffy.⁠
⁠
Everyone has their favourite pumpkin soup recipe; this is mine!⁠
⁠
𝗚𝗨𝗧𝗦𝗬 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘆 𝗣𝘂𝗺𝗽𝗸𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝗽⁠
In a high-speed blender, combine: ⁠
◽ 1/2 baked pumpkin (skin on is fine too) ⁠
◽ 2-3 cups filtered water (just boiled) or homemade chicken broth ⁠
◽ 1 tbsp @bestofthebone concentrate (Turmeric & Ginger is our favourite in pumpkin soup) - optional if you are using broth above ⁠
◽ 2 tbsp butter, room temp ⁠
◽ 1 glug of pickle/kraut juice (add just before serving) ⁠
⁠
Blend it all up until smooth. You might like to add more or less liquid depending on the desired consistency of pumpkin soup. ⁠
⁠
We usually drink it as it is. To bulk it up more, I like to add any leftover chicken (shredded) and serve it with cassava naan (I will share this recipe in a later post). ⁠
⁠
What's your favourite winter soup?⁠

Welcome back Cauliflower Kimchi! We have missed yo

Welcome back Cauliflower Kimchi! We have missed you! ⁠
⁠
Cauliflowers are back in season, which means we are back to fermenting this delicious kimchi! ⁠
⁠
GUTSY Cauliflower Kimchi is full of flavour but completely free of fish sauce, oysters, shrimp paste, and cabbage.⁠
⁠
Naturally high in fibre and antioxidants, cauliflower provides some powerful health benefits and is a great source of nutrients. And once it is fermented, all of that goodness goes into high gear! ⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
To grab yourself a jar (or five! 🙈) head to our online store via our bio link.⁠

Hello everyone! It’s been ages since we have las

Hello everyone! It’s been ages since we have last shown our faces on social. So here’s us and our GUTSY tribe all scrubbed up and smiley 😃. It wasn’t an easy feat! It was totally chaotic to position everyone and then to make sure all eyes were looking at the camera! 😅 ⁠
⁠
For those who are new, welcome! Josh and I (Wei'er) are the founders of GUTSY. I’m the visionary aka Creative Director and Josh, aka Mr Gutsy, is the man who keeps things running at a logical & consistent pace. Together, we work to bring you the best quality local ferments on the market. ⁠
⁠
When our family was smaller (think two young kids), lots of our free time was spent in the kitchen crafting, fermenting, and tasting ferments. Bubbly jars and bottles of Kombucha, water kefir, veggie ferments, and milk kefir lined our bench. I fondly remember the regular explosion of kefir, kombucha, or fizzy fruit ferments when the gutsy microbes got over-excited on a hot day. It was then, that our passion for all gutsy foods was kindled.⁠
⁠
Fast forward seven years and a warehouse full of bubbly oak barrels (plus a few more kids later 👧🏻👧🏻👦🏻), we are even more excited and intrigued about fermented foods! Besides kraut & kimchi, we are constantly crafting new ferments, such as miso, sambal, and honey ferments, which we aim to share with everyone in the not too distant future. ⁠
⁠
I have to admit, our life is a little crazy. Being adventure seekers, homeschooling five kids, and running a business keeps us on our toes: but we love it! We are absolutely delighted to have you join in our ride. Here’s our invitation extended to you to join us on our GUTSY journey of love, inspiration, being authentic, and loving ferments.⁠

Good morning to you all! It’s a chilly morning

Good morning to you all! It’s a chilly morning and we agreed that pipping hot & crispy cassava waffles 🧇 will be the perfect base for this fizzy rhubarb, apple & berry chia jam.
All you need to make a berry chia jam cultured is to add in 2 tbsp water kefir to a 250ml jar of berry chia jam. Leave to ferment on the bench overnight and dig in!
Fizzy berry 🍓 chia jam will continue to ferment in the fridge so don’t be surprise if it fizzes when you open it. Of course, our gut friendly microbes usually slow down in cooler weather. Unless you have got a warm kitchen, this fizzy berry jam should stay pretty tame for the moment.

Have you ever put ferments in your sushi? 🍣⁠
