Peas and beans. Beans and peas. Hmmmm. I've no doubt that they can be made into wine.....turns out you can ferment about anything but I've never tried either.

Welcome aboard however.

Somebody will be along soon to give you some direction.

I would reccomend soaking them and turning them into a mash. You'll need to use pectic enzyme and sugar. You will also need some sort of acid and something for mouthfeel.
I'm sure it can be done because tofu is fermented soy beans but I'm not so sure it will taste very good.

Don't forget to go to the UserCP and update your profile.

Hi Kate,

Welcome aboard and, LOL, I second what Wade said.

Like the others, I don't know much about fermenting veggies but I'd be more than happy to work on a recipe with ya and find out how it goes.

I have seen variations of pea pod wine too. Here is JK's:

I'm planting about 16 bush bean plants in the next couple of weeks and am hoping to have enough to try some thing similar.
