Curtido, Fermented Cabbage Slaw
A fermented cabbage slaw originating from El Salvador. Slightly tangy with a hit of spice, our version of this El Salvadoran side dish is naturally fermented for a minimum of two weeks in traditional crocks. Traditionally served alongside pupusas, Curtido works well with salads, tortillas and wraps. Try some in a mixed bean burrito or a pulled pork taco, it's delish! All our ferments are unpasteurised, allowing beneficial bacteria to grow and thrive.
A perfect blend of garlic, oregano, cumin and chilli is added to create a vibrant, warming and flavourful ferment.
Delea Fermented Foods
Hi, my name is Caitlin Walsh, Owner and Founder of Delea Fermented Foods. I grew up on a smallholding here in Cornwall, so from an early age appreciated the need for local, organic produce – not only to support local business, but also from a wellbeing perspective. For the last ten years I have struggled with my health and have tried numerous ways of improving it. The most effective of these has been an understanding of what I eat and a positive attitude towards nurturing my body.Through research into the human gut microbiome and the profound effects it can have on our body’s ecosystem, I have begun my journey in an area that is still relatively new. While travelling and communicating with people all over the world, I have found that I’m not alone. I have seen first-hand the positive ways in which good food including fermented foods, can transform lives, from the simple pleasures of enjoying a delicious dish to alleviating chronic illnesses. Although I have years of experience providing high quality service in the food and beverage industry, my real passion lies with the honest food I produce, using fresh and local ingredients. In October 2019, I decided to set up Delea as a way of connecting with people through quality food, applying all that I have learned and continue to learn through my own health journey. At a time when food intolerances are becoming more and more apparent, I take great pride in constructing recipes, so that more people can enjoy tasty, flavoursome food.
