MADISON, WIS. — Wildbrine, a fermented beverage company, is launching a packaged fermented bean salad. The salad comes in two varieties: Mediterranean and kimchi style.
The Mediterranean salad is formulated with fermented chickpeas, onions, bell peppers, garlic, oregano, parsley and lemon.
The kimchi style is made with fermented chickpeas, green onion, carrot, ginger, garlic and gochugaru.
“Fermented foods have long been associated with gut health, and beans with plant-based protein and fiber, but never before have those benefits lived in one convenient, ready-to-eat product,” said Jorge Azevedo, chief executive officer of Wildbrine.
The salads will be available in 20-oz jars at Whole Foods Market locations starting in April.
