Kava root fermentation extracts psychoactive kavalactones while reducing bitterness through lactic acid production.
Low‑temperature aqueous extraction of kavalactones from ground kava root.
Kava root is ground and macerated in cold water to extract lipophilic kavalactones, then whisked and served communally in a single gulp.
Fried meat dish of Turkic origin
Kebab grilling is a Middle Eastern street food technique that involves cooking thinly sliced meat over direct heat, resulting in a crispy exterior and a juicy interior.
Kecap manis is a sweet soy sauce produced by fermenting soybeans with roasted wheat, followed by a controlled simmer that induces Maillard reactions and caramelization.
Concentrates kecap manis' flavors through controlled evaporation while developing Maillard reaction products.
Kefir is produced by fermenting milk with kefir grains, a symbiotic culture of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts.
Kefir fermentation is a symbiotic microbial process that converts lactose and plant sugars into lactic acid, ethanol, and CO₂, producing a probiotic beverage with characteristic viscosity and acidity.
Kefir fermentation in the Caucasus is a biological process where lactic acid bacteria and yeasts convert lactose into lactic acid, ethanol, CO₂, and flavor compounds at 20–25 °C over 24–48 h.
Kefir fermentation is a microbially driven process that converts lactose or plant sugars into lactic acid, ethanol, CO₂, and kefiran polysaccharide, forming a gelled, probiotic-rich beverage.
Kefir grains ferment coconut water at 20–25 °C for 24–48 h, producing lactic acid and trace ethanol, yielding a tangy, probiotic beverage.
Kefir grain cultivation is a biological fermentation process that converts lactose into lactic and acetic acids, producing a probiotic beverage.
