Chow-chow

Chow-chow

United States. Region and substrate as published. No source consulted here states its fermentation parameters.

Also written Chow-chow (food).

Fermentation not stated

Parameters

None of the sources this site reads states a salt percentage, a temperature, a duration or a terminal pH for Chow-chow. That is a gap in the published record rather than a gap in this page, and it is not filled in from anywhere else.

What this page does not claim

No source consulted for this site says that Chow-chow is fermented. It reached this table through a pickle category, and it may well be a vinegar preparation rather than a lactic one. The distinction matters here more than anywhere: a vinegar pickle is preserved by acid that was added to it, and a lactic pickle by acid the food made for itself.

Composition

Sodium is the number worth reading here. It is what the salt percentage produced.
