Today I made sauerkraut according to a recipe from Clean Food Living.
The ingredients I used were green cabbage, carrots, ginger, carraway seeds, salt, and about a Tbs of leftover brine from some kimchi.
I've made this many times before; it is delicious, as is her recipe using red cabbage and fennel. She is the best fermentation teacher on the internet as far as I know 👍👍
Hal Schibel flagged this submission as an edge case. BBV price: 0 Note: Looks great but the no plastic rule is getting stricter and includes lids, even if they are not directly touching the food. Can you put a different lid on it that isn't plastic and upload a new pic?
I used whole cloves of organic garlic, peeled.
Salt brine 1 cup water 2 tbsp sea salt
Ended up being 2 cups water total in each quart jar
Placed garlic, added water then salt. Laid the glass weight on top to keep it all underneath and covered. Topped off with a self burping lid thingy mabob.
Set her aside in a cool dark place to do her thing for 30 days. Changesd the rubber number thingy so id know what day in January itll be done.
Here I fermented some lemons to use for extra hydration as well as for making tummy foods like my favorite salad dressings. It's a simple recipe that involves slicing lemons, adding a generous pinch of salt to each and then smashing them down to make a brine of themselves. After that I added a glass weight and a pickle pipe to ferment.

Ash Jackson flagged this submission as an edge case. BBV price: 0 Note: It's hard to tell the size of the jar. Could you please show the amount is at least one quart?
