2% Rule & Method -

Weigh fruits or vegetable and calculate 2% of their weight.
Add 2% of their weight in salt to the fruit or vegetables and then if needed add a 2% salt brine to cover them (2g salt per 100g water).
Submerge your ingredients in a jar with a fermentation lid or vacuum pack your ingredients. Allow them to ferment for 4 days up to 2 weeks or longer then when you like the flavour move them to the fridge to store longer term.
