So, I tend to do whatever I want, whenever I want.
These tendencies are not intended to affect others in any way, shape, of form. They are simple structures and actions I’ve created for my own benefit and joy.
Well, there was this one time, when my choice to benefit myself with a meal, really ended up negatively impacting those around me.
I apologized immediately, but there was nothing to be done at that point.
Don’t judge me for my story and my choice.
Long story short: I love hardboiled eggs, and I am obsessed with the taste, texture, and health benefits of well-made kraut.
So, I mixed the two. It became one of my favorite breakfasts. Hardboiled eggs and kraut salad – served on its own or on toast with cheese or with cracker.
On this particular day in history, I had an early morning flight from PDX to SF. I chose to “pack” my breakfast of hardboiled eggs and kraut salad.
I opened the container on the plane to enjoy – it was a small plane …
Oh, those poor human beings. Both items taste amazing, but mixed together, this is not a great thing for the olfactory system.
I’m sorry. I am.
But, I am not.
Truly. Truly. Truly.
You must try this: Wild Brine Kraut, hardboiled eggs, + sea salt and pepper, a little vegan mayo, a little mustard, and you’re set. Scoops, sandwiches, whatever, it’s the best breakfast meal or snack on earth. Just trust me.
And, trust me enough to know that this should be enjoyed in the comfort of your own home. Stinky food individuals do not make friends on planes, trains or automobiles while transporting or eating kraut and eggs together. Make this for YOU. Make this a special experience for you and for you alone 😀
Since 2011, we’ve been experimenting with fermented vegetables passionately. We’ve grown from the two original flavors to nine unique krauts, each boasting its own brightness, three bold kimchi flavors, two spicy srirachas, two delightfully unique fermented salsas, and now our plant-based creamery. Our business has grown too, and we know that if we continue to do the right thing – take good care of our customers, employees, suppliers, and community – wildbrine will naturally thrive. We are excited to continue exploring our wild possibilities.
We love what fermentation does to food. The process elevates the flavor of produce and brings their nutrient and probiotic power to life. We focus on bringing out the best flavor of our fermented vegetables, while still staying true to the wholeness of each ingredient. Our favorite part is spending hours in our kitchen playing with different vegetable and spice combinations until we get it just right.
Of course, the fermentation process happens under our watchful eye. We monitor our batches of krauts, kimchis, and salsas carefully and on a daily basis. Once everything is tart, tasty, and ready, our team hand packs our containers—then wildbrine® is off to the stores and you. That’s it!
