Whether you wish to pickle yourself or prefer to use your favourite shop-bought ferments, Kenji also shows just how simple it is to include kimchi, sauerkraut, kombucha, miso, super-quick pickles and more into your everyday cooking with delicious, gut-healthy results.

As a child, he was in charge of making tsukemono (Japanese pickles) for family gatherings, learning from and surrounded by elders recreating flavours of home. In 2020, he started his Instagram @kenjcooks to document his interest in fermentation and connecting the dots between diasporic traditions and his own. Since then, he's cooked in kitchens in Poland, led fermentation and Japanese focused supper clubs in London, taught workshops on koji and kimchi and collaborates with Ottolenghi Test Kitchen and Zoe. He has been published in Waitrose Food magazine and Delicious magazine, and spoken on panels at the British Library on themes of community, food and immigrant narratives.
