One of my favorite breakfasts (or breakfasts for dinner!) is the middle eastern dish Shakshuka. Translated as “all mixed up”, shakshuka is this crazy delicious stewed onion, harissa (spicy sweet red pepper paste), tomato stew like dish with eggs cracked in, sometimes topped with some feta and herbs and baked to bubbly goodness and then served with crusty bread or pita. It’s bomb and pretty damn addicting.Now, if you know me in real life or follow me on Instagram you may have figured out that I have an obsession with all things fermented and pickled, from yogurt to kombucha to krauts to kosher dills, and especially the delicious funky flavor bomb that is kimchi (korean fermented cabbage magic). Not only does it have the heath benefits that comes along with fermentation (gut balancing probiotics and vitamin goodness), but it also adds this spicy funky sour umami flavor to dishes that just gives food a magical boost. I pretty much add fermented foods to a quarter of my meals, from quesadillas to grain bowls to fried rice to sauces to grilled cheeses to just eating with a fork straight from the jar, and am always looking for new ways to incorporate it into my food.
