a few years ago, i was experimenting with different liquids to use for marinating proteins. on a whim, i found a “blood orange” flavored kombucha in my fridge and wanted to see how it would translate into cooking. what i found was that, in braising a protein in kombucha, the natural sugars reduce to a sort of caramelized glaze for the salmon, as well as leaves behind a decadent sauce from the rendered flavors that accumulate while cooking.
