Avatar Member 5517, 1538 posts SQ 160, BP 165, DL 201526.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Been listening to Just One Thing health show on Radio 4. Every week they do a show with a healthy fad that may make you healthy. Recently they did one on fermented, see foodhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000v3g2 Anyone making their own kifer, Kimchee or kombucha got a good recipe? I'd kifer grain before but it always tasted like sparkling sour milk. I wouldn't mind a breakfast I can actually keep down without holding my nose | ||

It has been helpful but yes there are a few bits which make you think "too difficult" I was making basic sauerkraut before getting the book and still prefer that just use any hard veg you get cheap, Probably the best place to start. My wife has made kimchee (don't quite taste like the real Korean deal) and Kombucha which she had to get a starter for from a Health food shop. | ||

I've now prepped everything and it's in a jar to ferment. I also got a kombucha scoobi and Ginger beer grain. I'm waiting for the tea to cool in my killeen tap jars. Will add steps if they taste good. | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7867 posts | Mr Boar If you bought your Sauerkraut from a shop there is a good chance it has been pasteurised which sadly kills of the good bacteria. Still a tasty snack though. | ||

Nothing left in the tank. Member 5, 25565 posts Administrator | I did read somwhere (possibly reddit) about the pasturised thing ..... but i do plan on making my own .....the stuff STINKS out the wagon though !!! | ||

Avatar Member 5517, 1538 posts SQ 160, BP 165, DL 201526.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Kimchi tastes pretty good. I've some spice bag mix seasoning and going to try a bbq with it as my side tomorrow (weather permitting.) A 3 pound cabbage turned out to be slightly less than a 500g jar after salting and draining the cabbage. Will try making 3 cabbages next time. Disappointingly the ginger beer may be infected. I used Milton to sterilize everything, but must have missed something. There is a sperm like goo on top. It tastes like ginger, so haven't tossed it yet. I'm hoping it's like a Belgian Sour Beer accident and not garbage water | ||

Rye bread, sour kraut, gorgonzola and shallots (salted). Once the sandwich is made heat both sides of the bread in a griddle pan until it's warms through and the cheese is melting. Prefer it to my memory of the bacon version. | ||

I eat a lot of meat Member 5124, 2997 posts SQ 245, BP 130, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | A good kimchi is a real treat, especially when eating fat rich meats. One of my fave combos is a hotdog with kimchi and sriracha sauce. | ||
