Grated purple-black carrots are steeped in salted water with crushed mustard seed and chilli, and left in a nearly sealed earthenware pot for several days. Lactic bacteria sour the liquid (to pH 3.47 in one study) and it turns purple-red; it is strained and drunk within a few days.

At a glance
Grated purple-black carrots are steeped in salted water with crushed mustard seed and chilli, and left in a nearly sealed earthenware pot for several days. Lactic bacteria sour the liquid (to pH 3.47 in one study) and it turns purple-red; it is strained and drunk within a few days. Made in 4 steps over 5 days – 10 days. The longest step, ferment in a nearly sealed earthenware pot, takes 5–10 days (Battcock M 1998). Pediococcus acidilactici and Lactobacillus paraplantarum and L. pentosus do most of the fermenting.
Kanji is a vegetable brine drunk as a beverage, not a pickle. Crushed mustard seed goes into the brine, and the anthocyanins of black carrot give its colour.
Beetroot kanjiMade from beetroot instead of carrot (Kingston et al. 2010 studied beetroot kanji and carrot kanji).
Safety
FAO notes that the lactic acid lowers the pH enough to stop food-poisoning organisms, and that the drink spoils 3 or 4 days after straining. In one study the pH fell from 6 to 3.47, and coliform and yeast counts fell during fermentation. FAO's recipe ferments the drink in glazed earthenware. FDA warns that lead in badly made glazes can leach into food and drink. It advises testing the pot with a lead kit, and considering not using it if you cannot test it or tell that it comes from a reliable maker.
Hazards the sources name: Coliforms (counts fell after fermentation).
