Brine and Vine's Jalapeno Business Sauerkraut

Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | Aug. 10, 2024

Prepare your tastebuds, readers: We’re about to turn up the heat on your next barbecue! Enter: Brine and Vine’s Jalapeño Business sauerkraut. The brainchild of food industry veterans Matt Vujea and Dan O’Neill, this naturally-crafted condiment was born to up the standard flavor ante, while also delivering the probiotics and other health benefits of classic ferments. The secret is the lacto-fermentation, which takes about four weeks to complete and gives this killer ’kraut (ingredients: shredded green cabbage, carrot, jalapeños, green onion, garlic, and salt) its signature crunch. Tangy and fresh with just enough heat, this “business” was made for savory eats like smoked meats and even melty breakfast sandwiches. Grab a jar online at brineandvine.com ($12/16oz), or find them locally at farmers markets and Oryana in Traverse City!
