This research focused on investigating how fermentation with\n                      <jats:italic>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum<\/jats:italic>\n                      NCU001557 affects the physicochemical characteristics, bioactivity, and flavor profile of\n                      <jats:italic>B. hispida<\/jats:italic>\n                      . The results demonstrated that the pH and reducing sugar content significantly decreased upon fermentation's completion, while the titratable acidity and organic acid content notably increased. The viable bacterial count was measured at 8.890\u00a0Log\u00a0CFU\/mL, and the total phenol content rose to 81.31\u00a0mg\u00a0GAE\/L. Additionally, the antioxidant capacity and xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity showed significant enhancement. Moreover, fermentation reshaped the volatile compound profile, characterized by increased levels of ketones, esters, acids, and alcohols, alongside a decrease in aldehydes. UHPLC\u2013QTOF\u2013MS analysis of the nonvolatile compounds revealed that\n                      <jats:italic>L. plantarum<\/jats:italic>\n                      NCU001557 significantly altered the nonvolatile metabolites of\n                      <jats:italic>B. hispida<\/jats:italic>\n                      , including caffeyl alcohol,\n                      <jats:italic>m<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2010coumaric acid, and\n                      <jats:italic>trans<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2010cinnamic acid.
