Did the drying of ginger root for the badge, had posted it in PEA for approval and it's been a few months. Wondering if I post it here, then I can get the BB approved this way!

Some ginger tea, which hopefully will help settle my stomach! Added an apple slice inspired by a recipe from the interwebs to balance the flavor.

Dried a bit of ginger root! Tried to make a little bit this time, an experiment, then making some more!

Is it okay to use an oven to dry and store here? People seem to be using the food dehydrator, which I will get in the future but don't have yet!

The recipe:

-6 garlic cloves
-3/4 cup rice vinegar
-1 1/2 cup water

A vinegar to water ratio of 2:1 and can adjust as vinegar sits for flavor.

Using green lentils. These are very common thing in our household (normally with rice and cooked) and this is my first time trying to sprout them! They are earthy and grounding which is why I like them, so curious try in this form.

If I have a job at call center that I do from my laptop remotely, would this count?
If I get paid in giftcards for using an online forum on a monthly basis, would this count?

Cleaning our tiny oven! Put baking soda on the bottom, then poured a little water on the top of it and let it sit before scrubbing with sponge. For the sides made a paste with the water and rubbed it on. It was kind of fun, like making slim that cleans! The one mark left is a burn mark, wasn't coming off. Much much cleaner!

Hello, and welcome! That's awesome news. It will be cool to see how all your lurked knowledge comes out on the farm!!
