A lot if what we as a society have settled on is also because of economy at scale logic. There are many things that are delicious but won’t keep well outside of a small window in specific conditions. Or have less yeild than common alternatives. And sadly many clients simply don’t want to try new things.

I suggest for anyone that can, try your hand at fermentation, especially if you have room for a garden. There is so much you can do from making your own koji to lacto-fermenting Nasturtium berries. There are many new flavours for you to discover and share with friends.

Another idea is to learn more about local foraging and seeking out local Mycological societies to learn about mushrooms in your area.
