A Quick Pickle: Chef AuCo Lai's Pickled Scallion Heads
BONUS: A Quick Pickle! To celebrate Lunar New Year, we thought we'd share some bonus content from our very first episode, Batch No. 1, Jar No. 1 - Rice Cakes, Road Trips and "Gung Hei Fat Choy!"
In this short clip, Kentucky-based chef AuCo Lai discusses Vietnamese scallion heads, pickled through a process of lacto-fermentation. The same process is often used with shallots, and AuCo has applied it to the preservation of a certain cousin of the scallion, found right here in the Appalachian woods. "I have done this with ramps, and they are delicious." AuCo says.
