    Fermented foods go really good with beef. I eat one meal a day and it's usually a steak or roast and a few spoonfuls of whatever I have fermented. I tried carnivore for a few weeks and felt better than I have in years. All my aches and pains went away and my digestion was actually better without all the fiber. But I don't think eating just meat, or just fruit and/or veggies, for long periods of time is good. So that's why I added fermented foods.

      Carnivore as well. Because of Dr. Sean O'Mara I have started a jar of vegetables to ferment and got some milkkefir grains. He says fermenting gets rid of some of the plant toxins/anti-nutrients/phytochemicals. The sourness of ferments and the calcium in kefir can help the clearing out of oxalates.

      I've been carnivore 3 years but I am getting stir crazy from lack of flavors. Fermented foods from my garden sounds like the perfect solution, or at least a feasible part of the solution.

    Thank you so much for your channel and sharing your knowledge. You have influenced me, my brother, and my friends, educating us on the process of making fermenting vegetables part of our daily lifestyle. We not only really love the taste but everyone notices how much better their gut biome functions. I used to eat a lot of steamed veggies, stir-fry, and grilled veggies but now I eat (90% of the time) fermented veggies with every meal. I can't believe how easy it is to make them. I haven't had a bad batch yet. I have never tried the fermented salsa but that is on the list. You have such a nice relaxing style of delivering your videos. Your property looks beautiful as well. I haven't watched the garden tour video yet but I am going to do that tonight. Again, thank you for sharing your wisdom.

    • @CleanFoodLiving
      @CleanFoodLiving  2 роки тому +6

      Doing my own book is something I am seriously considering. I've looked into a lot of fermenting books... and as far as the 'recipe' fermenting books, they're all pretty blah in my opinion. I think that's why I strive to make fermentation recipes that are on the fun and interesting side, outside of the box. My best advice is to check out as many as you can find from the library and thumb through them... see what book fits your liking. For straight up information/education on fermenting (not really any recipes) the book "The Art of Fermentation" by Sandor Katz is one of the best out there. He knows his stuff. Thanks for writing in!😊

      You wouldn't be able to do a full on lacto-fermentation in vinegar of any kind because it does kill off lactobacillus... but adding a dash to a salad that has already matured/completed fermented foods on it would not be detrimental.

    Hello i have just started fermentation of veggies and 2 times now my sauerkraut has come out slimy and i tossed it.
    Do you have any idea why the brine would come out slimy?

    • @CleanFoodLiving
      @CleanFoodLiving  2 роки тому

      To troubleshoot, more details are needed... to start.... how much salt was added? did the salt contain any other ingredients listed on the label other than salt? what type of water was used? how many days before the slime formed? temperature & average humidity of the fermenting environment?

      I used the recipe in the book from the mason top kit with the glass weights and the nipple tops.
      I think it was 2 tbsp for my quart jar,but I did the massage thing with the ball canning salt then packed it, this made plenty of liquid at first.
      The only thing I can think of that both times was a bit of an issue was the liquid seemed to be fine but toward the one week mark seemed to disappear and i added more water with a little salt to the cabbage by topping it off and I pushed a butter knife in it to get the liquid down into the cabbage.
      After a week when I checked it , gross snotty slimy brine oozing all in the cabbage.
      Seems the Sauerkraut fermentation the liquid seems to disappear but when I ferment other veggies like peppers its fine not loosing any liquid even making extra at times.

      Sounds like the dry salt method and recipe is all correct as it should be if you followed the recipe from the Mason Top kit. The reason I asked about reading the salt ingredients is because sometimes salts have things added to them such as iodine or anti-caking agents. these extra ingredients can cause a fermentation to fail. Chlorine is also antimicrobial so tap water can cause fermentation fails as well. If you're in the clear for both of these, then here's my 25 cents of input....
      1.) disappearing brine in sauerkraut is normal. And kraut seems to be the only fermented vegetable that experiences this , no worries there.
      2.) I will speak truthfully and plainly with you - I have had the worst 'freak' fermentation funks happen when using the nipple tops by the same brand you mentioned. I started experimenting with my usual coffee filter tops, Easy Fermenter tops, the nipple tops, etc and the only ones that went bad were the nipple top ferments. I don't have an explanation, I'm simply sharing my personal experiences. If you're up for it, try again without the nipple tops. In my red kraut video I demonstrate 2 different types of covers for the fermentation video. Try one or both of those. One is the coffee filter top that I've done for years (free) and the other is the Easy Fermenter that I personally vouch for as effective (contrast to the nipple tops). The coffee filter top is good for 10 day or less fermentation periods. If you want to go long term fermenting with the kraut, meaning longer than 10 days ... weeks or months..., as a beginner I recommend the Easy Fermenter simply because it will prevent 'issues' that can arise when going for longer that perhaps a seasoned fermenting vet knows what to do or what not be be worried about, but may cause concern for a newbie. Just a suggestion. Let me know how it goes😊
