Fall Fermenting Veggies-
I made my Curtido a while back, and was wanting to make something else that wasn't spicy. After reading this Myhumblekitchen.com I thought I'd giver it a try. Lots of great vitamins and minerals, perfect for winter! I used one large bunch of Swiss chard, one bunch of kale, 1 thin sliced carrot, 1 large red onion, water and salt. That made two batches- one 1/2 gallon jar and one fermenting jar size, about 1 1/2 Qts. Just chop, alternate layers of veggies, smash down a bit. Very fast and easy! Now everything is fermenting away! Looks good! The hens really attacked the left over chard, and kale.
Some Anya fall cats naps-
And a fall breakfast- homemade banana bread w/pecans and Earl Grey tea
Love the chicken mug!
Cute cat photos, and that mug is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI am experimenting with sauerkraut this winter once my cabbages are ready. I am enjoying fermented foods much more than I realized I would. Thanks for sharing and your bread looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks and welcome!
ReplyDeleteI love lacto-fermented anything but never thought to make such a mix; great idea! Love the kitty shots (always) and the mug.
ReplyDeleteThanks, glad to share...
ReplyDeleteI really want to ferment foods. I've seen those containers for sale all over. Thank you for this post. I may just try it next year. Does it omit much of a smell?
ReplyDeleteI love the mug! Where did you get the mug? Our kitchen is all chickens.
Hi Jen, there's no unpleasant odor because of the vapor lock. Ditto the regular jar. I got the mug at walmart.
