    Organic Lacto-Fermented Vegetables: Celery Root and Apple

    We are thrilled to introduce MANJAR VIU's organic, non-pasteurized lacto-fermented products ("Eating Alive" in Occitan)!

    🦠 Made from organic and locally-sourced celery root and apple, this tasty blend of lacto-fermented vegetables is artisanal, carefully prepared, and unpasteurized. It offers a unique way to combine vitality and convenience in your meals.

    >
    Free from preservatives, artificial flavors, or vinegar (which is antiseptic), you'll add a boost of pre- and probiotics to your dishes with just one or two tablespoons of this preparation! (If it makes a "pssst" sound upon opening, that's normal—it's a living product!)

    > Enjoy as a condiment! The unique slightly tangy flavors and crunch of lacto-fermented vegetables can enhance any meal.
    Behind this jar of lacto-fermented vegetables lies a gustatory adventure and an explosion of authentic flavors with every bite: the sweet, fruity taste of apple complements the richness of umami in this recipe, delivering a uniquely satisfying sensation!

    🦠 How to enjoy this jar of lacto-fermented vegetables?

    Lacto-fermented vegetables can be used as a side for salads, in wraps, makis, or on crackers. These condiments will instantly elevate your dishes, salads, appetizers, toasts, sandwiches, and soups!

    > Non-pasteurized, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of lacto-fermentation. Always use clean utensils and keep the jar refrigerated (consume within a month after opening).

    > Ensure better preservation by pressing down leftover vegetables into their brine. The brine can also be used in sauces, dressings, or fresh vegetable juices! We recommend consuming a small amount daily (one to two tablespoons per meal) rather than basing an entire meal on this food.

    Umami is the fifth taste detected by the tongue, alongside salty, sweet, sour, and bitter. It is often described as a savory delight that enhances flavor! Umami adds depth and richness to dishes, boosting satisfaction and complexity.

    > This taste was only identified in 1908 by scientist Kikunae Ikeda, a professor at Tokyo Imperial University. He discovered it while studying kombu dashi (seaweed broth) and isolated the responsible molecule: glutamate. He named this flavor "umami": "uma" meaning "savory" and "mi" meaning "taste." > Umami is found in foods like ripe tomatoes, mushrooms, and seaweed. Its exploration continues to revolutionize how we perceive and enjoy food. Chefs and nutritionists value umami for its ability to balance and harmonize other flavors in a dish.
    > Consuming foods rich in umami can stimulate salivation, improving digestion. Additionally, fermented foods, often high in umami (like miso), provide probiotic benefits, supporting gut health.

    🦠 What is lacto-fermentation?

    Also known as lactic fermentation, this is a food preservation method with proven benefits for millennia. It results from a chemical reaction: Vegetables + Salt - Oxygen = Lactic Fermentation.

    > It was invented about 10,000 years before refrigerators and industrial processes. Many countries around the world have developed lacto-fermented vegetable recipes: sauerkraut in Europe, kimchi and miso in Asia, cereals, and legumes in Indonesia, etc.

    > It occurs through a chemical reaction caused by specific yeasts, bacteria, or fungi that, in an anaerobic environment (without oxygen), transform plant sugars into lactic acid. The environment becomes progressively acidic, preventing the growth of other organisms.

    > This method has no link to lactose. Its name comes from the involved bacteria, called lactic bacteria or lactobacilli, which are not milk-derived. Lactic acid is a natural preservative that inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria and germs that could spoil vegetables. The vegetables retain all their vitality, or even more!

    > Fermentation is an effective preservation method and a culinary art offering a wide range of surprising textures and flavors. It is also an ancestral food preservation process requiring various stages and regular monitoring to achieve the best quality final product.

    > Fermented foods are known to boost the immune system, support gut flora, and aid digestion. They improve digestion, provide probiotics, and enhance nutrient bioavailability.

    MANJAR VIU ("Eating Alive" in Occitan)

    Located in Lahage, near Toulouse, within the Bordanova third place, Mathieu, the mastermind behind Manjar Viu, specializes passionately and diligently in vegetable lacto-fermentation. Collaborating with local organic farmers, his company ensures fast and direct delivery of vegetables without intermediary storage. Production follows the rhythm of the seasons, accepting all shapes and sizes of vegetables to minimize food waste and transportation emissions.

    Manjar Viu's products are natural, free from preservatives or vinegar, allowing fermentation to continue during storage.

    🦠 We had the pleasure of meeting Mathieu in October 2024; watch our interview with him in this video:

    🦠 Moreover, Mathieu, with a culinary background, became passionate about food preservation, finding lacto-fermentation ideal for its ecological benefits and longevity. Through Manjar Viu, he aspires to offer nutritious and delicious recipes while highlighting local cultures. He also published a recipe book in September 2022, titled “Do Yourself Good, Eat Alive,” to promote the daily use of lacto-fermented vegetables, including this excerpt:
