I think it would be cool if dwarfs could make kimchi and other fermented foods.

I’d love a Preservation profession. Sausages/jerky, salted or dried fish, kimchi and other pickles.

Could make a salt industry out of it, though you’d need to trade for salt, or use rock salt/seawater.

I'd love more cooking-related professions. Curing, canning, fermenting, the list goes on.

Preserving food could be a kitchen job, where the cook takes unpreserved foods from the stockpile and works them, similar to processing fat into tallow. Then, allow food stockpiles to degrade unpreserved foods as if they were not in a stockpile.

There is something to be said about, if the stakes are as high, maybe reconsider your certitudes. One has to be aggressively allistic to feel entitled to be able to trust. But it won't happen to me, my bit doesn't count etc etc... Just saying, after my recent experiences I couldn't trust the public if I wanted to. People got their risk assessment neurons rotten and replaced with game theory. Folks walk around like fat turkeys taunting the world to slaughter them.

User Tekkud is working on a large food mod, that among other things is going to involve a lot of fermentation.
It sounds like it will have quite a bit going for it.

I wonder how having to manage food preservation might change things.

For starters, salt might actually become useful, with it being extracted from mines or saltwater.

Morever, famines might have to be managed, along with food trade.
