By now, you may know how I love to try out new kitchen gadgets! I just finished making a new batch of sauerkraut with the pickle pipe and pickle pebbles…. great little tools for fermentation!
Sauerkraut Tools
Sauerkraut
Recently, I renewed a practice I had many years ago: homemade sauerkraut, or, naturally lacto-fermented veggies. More and more we are hearing of the powerful health benefits of lacto-fermented foods, and they are so easy to make! The Cultures for Health folks have a wonderful free eBook on the subject. I think I eat a scoop of sauerkraut with almost every meal… so yummy! Another excellent source of information on fermentation is Wild Fermentation by Sandor Katz, which I use as my reference guide for measurements and seasonings.
Holiday Sauerkraut
Just bottled a batch of sauerkraut which I made with red and green cabbage… what a beautiful thing! Perfect for the holidays; will add colour to any dish. A great reference book on the subject is Wild Fermentation by Sandor
