Lemon fermented honey
History
August 2019
Started in evening of August 14, 2019. Inspired by a story from Eun-Joung about her mom doing something similar.
Sliced lemons (from Eun-Joung's garden), alternated layers of honey and lemon in jar. Didn't have raw honey, so trying it with pure (pasteurized), unfiltered. Loosely covered with cap.
Will stir twice a day to coat with honey. Should take 5-10 days — it's all about the flavor I like.
August 16, 2019 — Morning. I've been stirring it twice a day to keep the lemons covered, which keep floating. Tastes like lemon honey, which is obviously delicious, but no real changes yet.
August 18, 2019 — Starting to taste a little pithier. Reminds me of the lime honey tea Dad used to make. But not really fermenting yet. Used some for tea (which was great) and 막걸리 cocktails (which was meh). Added one spoonful of 막걸리 into the smaller jar to see if it accelerates the fermentation.
