I’ve always said, if anything is going to pull this country out of the hole it’s digging itself, it’s going to be the wisdom of the old timers...like my grandparents, who raised my folks on farms. You, dear lady, are keeping some of that wisdom alive and recorded, so those of us who weren’t paying attention, or didn’t have the opportunity to, can apply it. Thank you Mary.
Oh Tim!! Thank you so much for the kind words!! My parents lived through the Great Depression of the 1930s and then WWII. They taught me about all the ways they managed to make it through and survive - from making a meal out of a broth made from nothing but bones to a Victory Garden. People back then were tough and they were brave. We all need to strive to be more like them. Do you enjoy making traditional foods?

I put caraway in my sauerkraut, me and my husband both love caraway. I also love my rye bread with caraway. When I was young we fermented in a crock in the basement and covered our kraut with grape leaves to hold it under the brine i used them over pickles too. I never thought about reducing salt. I also put bay leaves in pickles.

I'm a salty viewer. With regards to fridge storage: Take an unpowered thermometer (no batteries, big dial) and test various locations of your fridge. The way fridges are chilled is through a blower fan, which *can* mean your top shelf chills better, which means it's a colder zone. So know your fridge, especially with other products in it.
Always a wealth of information Mary thank you.. I am preparing to ferment but need to research enough info to actually be confident enough to take the leap… I do make milk kefir with raw milk almost daily and have become quite comfortable with that so I really want to try cabbage 🥬 with mixed veggies like carrots and onions etc … then will move on to sourdough bread 🍞… my ultimate goal…..I may become a pest 😂😂😂😂😂but definitely relying on your knowledge and sharing your experiences/expertise ….again thank you 🙏 Mary so much
Hi Mary I googled Kahm and it may be that. I will check it again tomorrow and see if I am able to skim the top off the sauerkraut. I hope I haven’t lost this one. I will definitely try again. I don’t give up very easily. Thank you for your videos. I’m learning all the time 🤗
Yes when I make my beet kavas it comes out salty. It's obvious I'm adding to much salt. Lol Thank you. You're a great teacher and I'm learning to eat healthy and loving it. You're the best on RUclips!!
I am such an eye-baller! The only thing I measure is my pickle brine, I have it written on the half gallon jar that holds my brine:) If my cabbage is not covered any more - because I let it sit in the basement, check it now and then and if it needs topped off I pour some on. Yes, every now and then my sauerkraut gets a bit too sour, but eaten with other foods it is usually not a problem. Thanks for all your great tips!
Enjoy your vids and appreciate all the effort you put in; however, one thing I keep seeing repeated by many people is about chlorine Many municipalities in the US have switched to using chloramine, which doesn't break down (why they have switched) even with boiling. The only way to remove chloramine is by treating it with various devices or by distilling it. Filtration will not remove the chloramine, nor will adding salt, boiling, or letting it stand.
Mary! I just discovered your channel yesterday, and I love it!!! You have so many videos on things my sister and I have been exploring...I love kefir! I didn’t know you could make your own! My grocery store stopped carrying the plain variety which is my favorite. I love old cookbooks. I just bought an old Fannie Farmer cookbook and an old Toll House Tried and True cookbook from amazon. We have a Half Price books in Indiana too! Love it. I think my son is dyslexic. I’m a high school science teacher. Can you tell I’ve watched several of your videos already? I’m going off on those rabbit trails. Oh! And aprons! I just made my sister an apron for her birthday in January. I made the pattern to look like ones my grandma used to wear. I am so pleased to have found your channel. I’m already a devoted fan. Love Texas too. I’ve been to Dallas, and Gail and a few other places. So beautiful. I can’t wait to watch more of your wonderful videos. Dedra from Indiana

Hello Mary. I do have a question after watching this video. Will it hurt to add vinegar to the ferment liquid. Like with sauerkraut does that sour taste develop over time. That's the taste I love. For example, I want the taste of store bought giardiniera. Love the learning process in watching your videos. Thank you.
Thank you all my major questions are all answer..it's very helpful to me as a beginner..i like to eat fermentation process and your vlog is interesting and useful ..now its time for me to search ph strips☺ thank you

Hi Mary, thanks for another great video. I followed your instructions for sauerkraut and I think I jumped the gun on putting it in the fridge. You've answered my question regarding it being too salty, however, its not very 'sour'. Can I test the PH after it has been in the fridge for a couple weeks? Will it continue to ferment once its in the fridge, or do I really need to start over? I'm on to your sourdough next! You are such a valued and trusted resource and I am so delighted to have found your channel. Blessings fro Canada!
I did peppers, scallions, radishes, Carrots, cauliflower, a few garlic cloves, and celery. I live in Florida. Keep the house at 78 with air on. Like you said, after 2 weeks the pepper and celery are mush. It is still very salty after 2 weeks. Smells great. I put it in the fridge. Hopefully that will cut the salt back. I never saw any bubbles but could smell it brewing. No rot or mold. Looks good. Is something wrong that I didn’t see bubbles?
Formants can be very persnickety. It’s really a process of trial and error. In warm weather I would not leave a ferment on the counter very long. Whether you see bubbles or not, when the temperature starts to get over 75°F, ferments struggle. In warm weather, leave your ferment on the counter for a few days and then refrigerate it. The fermentation process will continue in the fridge, just much slower. After about two weeks in the refrigerator the vegetables will start to absorb the brine and become more flavorful and the brine will become less salty. When you go to taste your vegetable it should be very tasty and any brine clinging to it should be less salty. Hope this helps.

Thank you for all the information! I must order the referenced books as I am still new at this. For years I've been fermenting cabbage, but never ventured out into new items. I did apples the other day, and it failed. Way too much salt, so since I'm a huge fan of apples, I really want to get this down right. Thank you again, and stay well and safe....we love you!
I did the ph test on my ferment that I started 5 days ago and it was at 3.5. I think that it is ready! Do I take the wait out of the jar and put a canning lid and ring on the jars, than put them in the refrigerator? O r do I leave the glass wait in the Jars. Do I need to burp the jars after refrigeration? I did onions and parsley in one canning jar and cauliflower in three others. All had a ph of 4.0 and below! It is very warm here at present, so I think that it helped the fermentation take place faster. Thank you for the videos!
Love your video🤗🥰 about the tea bag, I know that some tea bags are bleach that may interfere with our fermentation, something to consider and use organic tea bags.
Hi Mary, I made the beet, cabbage, 1 apple, 3 cloves garlic, 1 clove, 1 small anise and it came out so DELICIOUS! My neighbor loves it. Thank you for inspiring me to try it. But I want to make one with lots of carrots, and other veggies. Can you use beans too? Can you make some more sauerkraut with other veggies besides cabbage?
Hi Bena, I am so happy to hear how well it turned out! Here is my playlist of all my vegetable ferments: ruclips.net/p/PLkRuW3pBo2U2EhVspEV5d4Xs2s4pcbHbr I think you will find lots of ferments that you'll enjoy making including carrots! Let me know what you think of this selection and also what other type of veggie ferments you would like to see me make. Love, Mary
I fermented some carrots sticks I used the easy grip fermenting lids After 7 day I checked them for taste they had a white film on top so I scooped it out and rinsed the lid and glass weight I Used the pump that came with the lids as directed will my fermentation be ok to eat I will buy the strips you suggested that’s a good idea
She talks SO DAMN MUCH. It’s over 1 minute in, for a video title about Q&A for fermentation, and she’s rambling and rambling about other topics. My god, this rambling at an astounding level…. Ok, at 2:15 she FINALLY STARTS the actual video. You’re welcome.
I used your recipe to make pickles. After about 5 days When I tasted them I could almost feel my blood pressure rise from the salt. Ok, maybe I didn’t wait long enough but my biggest complaint is that the skin on the pickles were tough as shoe leather. I used bay leaves for tannin. What would cause that tough skin.
Hi Bonnie, these are great questions. First of all, there can be variations in cucumbers, so that can play a role in the toughness of the skin.. Second, there are variations in fermentation times so your cucumbers may need to ferment longer. Keep them on the counter and continue to test the consistency. With the weather warming, you will want to refrigerate them within 14 days. In the refrigerator, the fermentation process will continue but at a much slower rate. Over time, as the cucumbers absorb more of the brine, they will become tastier, and the skins should soften. Ferments require a lot of patience. Unlike pickled foods that are made with sugar, salt, and vinegar, they are not ready quickly. ❤️🤗❤️
I love your videos & advice. Love the Teabag idea!! But I didn't get what to do if the brine is too salty even after all is DONE. I have a beet slaw that the salt level never calmed down. Is it a BUST?!?? THX
Hi Mary. Thank you for your very clear and thorough videos. I like the idea of adding brine to a ferment. Can I save my brine in the fridge? And can I mix brines if I’m storing them?

Hi Mary, Can I add more fish brine to my sauerkraut because after a week , some of the vegetables were out of the brine solution as I did not have a weight, but initially it did have a weight . Then after 6 days I took off the coffee filter top and sealed it tight. It tastes ok. I have added fresh brine to it so all veggies are under it .
Hi Mary! Thank you for all your videos. I'm learning so much! I've started some sauerkraut for the first time. A couple of my jars have started to show what I think is mold; these little white balls floating at the top of the brine. I've heard that that is normal but is very off-putting to me. Is this safe? How do you tell whether it's the "good" mold or bad. Thank you!
I am making the tomatoe basil ferment. I opened it and changed lids, it was bubbling over so I cleaned up the oversell. Now I hear you don't want air getting to it. Did I ruin it? I think tomorrow I need to refrigerate it..
Hi thanks for the sauerkraut video. Help, I wrote down the suggestion of 2% salt but I told my husband to use 20%. How can I fix my salty sauerkraut. I just started it today. . Can I rinse my cabbage and just add clean water to my cabbage? I made 2 small cabbages, a total of 2 pounds of cabbage & 4oz of salt, YIKES. THANKS AGAIN
When I made giardiniera, it didn't smell very good. I let it ferment for 4 days and then put it in the refrigerator, and it doesn't smell in there. BTW, it tastes great! But is it normal to smell bad while fermenting?
Hi Rebecca, That is a great question! Can you describe what you mean by "smell bad" - that can mean different things to different people. Did it smell like acetone - nail polish remover? That can smell "bad" to a lot of folks but it is just the "smell" of good bacteria. Ferments can also take on a strong alcohol smell which can be off-putting to some. If it has a nice tang to the taste, it sounds like it is OK but if the smell is very off-putting, rancid-like, you may want to throw it out. But it sounds like once you refrigerated it, it smelled and tasted OK. So maybe it is OK. Were you able to test the acidity with pH strips? Love, Mary
Thank you Mary for your response. To me it smells like I should have taken the garbage out 2 days ago. My fermented carrots did not have a bad smell. Maybe the cauliflower and onions just have a different smell while fermenting that I need to accept. In any event, it tastes great, so I will carry on with more fermenting. Thanks for all you do.

Hi. I have my first batch and indeed it is very salty and I am looking for an way out. I ask this because it had a lot of brine but it was reabsorbed already. Should I throw it away and start over?
I've had my kraut fermenting for 7days. i have it in a regular mason jar. i have burped it once a day. my liquid has almost completely bubbled out when i open the cover and release it. What do i do. My kraut only has salt in it,
Hi Mary, i fermented for the first time and i did radish and I have what looks like a cotton ball on the top it covered the whole top and came off in one piece, would the radish under it be still good?
I’ve helped my Dad make large crocks of kraut lots of times. Last year, my kraut went bad. This year the kraut is perking along, but disappointingly slow. This year, my sea salt and spring water brine is 2.5% by weight to the nearest tenth of an ounce. Same for salt on the cabbage. House temperature is about only 67 in the day time, and 59 at night or if I’m not home. Not being in the 70s seems to push fermentation into creeper gear? In addition to slowing down the fermenting process, what other side effects should be expected? Thanks for any help you can provide. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying
When you have your kraute sitting I covered my jar so it’s dark on my cabinet I have the cremating tube in it it was full of liquid when I checked it so I dumped some of it out tilted my jar was this the right thing to do? No I hope air didn’t get in it. ? Also can you take the tube of before it’s done and check inside or would you have to start over?
My sauerkraut has been on for about a week and it's still super salty (I didn't follow any particular recipe - my bad). Just wondering if I rinse it off, will I lose the nutritional benefits?
Hi Mary. I am definitely going to try the cucumber pickling method you use. I was wondering about fermenting lemons and lemon juice. I know it can be done, but the pH has to be adjusted. I took a couple of years ago some apple juice and set it in the sun for an hour or 2 for a couple of days. I had something working like crazy. Now I never added any sugar so some kind of local microbes were fermenting it. IDK what I made but it definitely fermented. Do you have any idea what was made. Not adding sugar, it didn't become vinegar. But it wasn't alcohol either. And there was sediment on the bottom. I would say from yeast working on the sugars there and dead yeast.
as soon as I will start consuming fermented veg, air would come in to fill the gap, is it just normal, or how to manage it, because air or oxygen is not good for the stuff
Its been about 2 weeks and no bubbles or burps in my honey and garlic. I stir it everyday and it is sealed tight. I keep it in a dark place with a temp around 73 degrees. is this normal? thank you
Hello Mary. I have a problem with sauerkraut fermentation at the moment. This is the second batch that’s done this. Is it alright to eat. I’ve thrown one lot away already. I have a white cloudy film all over the top of my sauerkraut and I noticed today it’s even in my ACV, which it hasn’t done it in that before. Please advise. What am I doing wrong. Thank you. 😊
Hi Jacqueline, I understand completely. Is it fuzzy? If so, it is mold and you need to discard it. However, it sounds like kahm yeast. Look at a picture on the internet. Kahm yeast is not a problem. Just scoop it off and continue with your fermentation. Keep me posted. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Hi Cami! Thank you so much for visiting!! I am so happy to hear that you are interested in ferments!! These are great for a plant based diet!! Love, Mary

I watched a video where the lady put sugar and vinegar in her sauerkraut she also just put the shredded cabbage in jar with salt and hot water. Is that ok?
Great question. That method you are referring to is NOT fermentation. It will not be rich in good bacteria...probiotics. You will want to follow this method to make proper fermented sauerkraut: ruclips.net/video/EO90h3xB3oc/видео.html Hope this helps. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️

Hi Mary! Me again (you helped me with my acv question a few days ago) I began my sauerkraut last Monday (11th) and it is well weighted under water. But it really hasn’t changed much color and it definitely hasn’t bubbled. I do ‘burp’ it every day and it does burp! Haha. But, I just wonder why it hasn’t bubbled at all and the color hasn’t faded really. It’s in my pantry where it’s a bit warmer than the kitchen (it’s winter here). Thanks for your help!
Hi Pamela, So happy to help. Hmmm...sometimes ferments can take their sweet time. But you are making sauerkraut at a good time of year for your climate. Sauerkraut likes to ferment between 68F and 72F but can tolerate 65F. (I believe this is 20C - 22C and 18C, respectively.) if you are getting a “burp”, it is fermenting but can take quite awhile before it changes in color. Let it ferment for about 14 days on your counter and then transfer it to your fridge. Overtime, the cabbage absorbs more of the brine and will soften and change color and become quite tasty. Keep me posted. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Hi Mary.. this is the third week of my sauerkraut fermenting.. I tried it and it is very salty. I don’t know whether I should drain the brine aside, and rinse the kraut with filtered water, then add the drained brine.. OR what should I do?? The fermentation never bubbled, color has changed and there is no mold or anything weird. Help?
Hi Bonnie, Yes, But first you ferment them, then, once they are ready to be refrigerated, you add your sweetener. Similar to what I demonstrated in my red cabbage video: ruclips.net/video/N1Za25PCpVE/видео.html Love, Mary
After two weeks my sauerkraut is still very crispy, is that okay that way to refrigerate or can it ferment 1 more week! My house temperature is about 68-70 Fahrenheit
Hi Mary - Help! I followed your recipe for the fermented red cabbage to the letter and it’s been sitting on the side in an ok temperature since 18th August this year, I came to taste it today and it tastes and smells ‘earthy’ and dull - not at all tangy. There’s no mould on it and it’s all submerged and weighted. What did I do wrong??
probably your salt got other additive that stop the bacteria from growing. just make it again with different brand salt. things should be sour even in a couple days, at least for me.
I am puzzled as to why my cabbage is not fermenting. It has been in jars on the kitchen cabinet {covered} for about 3 weeks. It has not bubbled. It is not soft or dark but has a slight odor.
Hi Mary, I am having a hard time with my catching a wild yeast! I am using plain bleached flour because it was all I had. But I switched over to unbleached. Still it is very slow going. My kitchen is rather cold and we have well water. I started it on Good Friday, and I have made some bread twice, but it was not a success. It just didn’t rise hardly at all! But still if cut very thin and toasted it was good. But very hard to cut through. Way too dense and heavy. Not really done. So, if I keep on, will it eventually get there? It does have some nice bubbles but not foamy at all yet. Can you address that? Thank you. It is still out on the counter and I feed it twice a day.
Hi Cassandra, I understand completely. Sometimes getting a sourdough starter going can be VERY difficult. There are SO many variables as to the conditions in your kitchen surroundings...temperature, availability of natural yeasts in the air, the weather, on and on. It can take a lot of time and patience to get a traditional flour starter going...and sometimes, you may have to revert to some other options of fermentation to raise bread that would work better given your kitchen conditions. I have some videos coming up over the next few weeks where I will be exploring these options. But at this point, what I would suggest is that you feed your starter every 8 hours and that in place of water, you use a simplified version of yeast water. Traditional Yeast water is a bit more involved than this method (and I’ll be showing the detailed method in an upcoming video) but what I would recommend is putting some dried fruit in a pint sized jar - about a 1/4 of the way full. Then I would pour some water over the raisins - up to about half way full. Leave this on your counter for a few days, then strain the water and use that, along with your flour, to feed your starter. This version of yeast water may jump start your starter. You can use any type of dried fruit if you don’t have raisins. You can also use fresh fruit but it does not work as well. Also, if you can try and keep your starter in a warm place...maybe top of the fridge or in the oven - tuned off - but with the electric light or pilot light on, that might help. Stay in touch and keep me posted. We will get to the bottom of this. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Mary's Nest oh thank you so much Mary! I am fairly determined to do this. I have wanted to make sourdough for a long time! I am going to try the raisin water right away! Or as soon as I get some. Thanks again. A few years ago I even bought some starter from King Auther and don’t remember being that successful even with that; didn’t get a good rise. But I will persevere! 😃😉
Cassandra Casto - I am very sympathetic. Sometimes it can be so thought to get these starters going depending on where you live. If you are able at some point to get some whole wheat ... or even rye flour, try a bit of that in a feeding. It can do wonders. And then once it’s strong, you can transition back to all purpose flour. We’ll tackle this together. ❤️🤗❤️
Loved this opening, Mary! Thanks for the great information. Lots of us don't know what to expect when learning to ferment different things. God bless and stay safe, Rob
But I thought you was gonna show how to make sweet chunky Tomatoe Pie, & sweet red chunky Tomato Preserves & them other things😢. Im sorry its ok i understand your busy... Love💗 you🙏 sweet Mary👩🍳
Hi Susan, Those all sound wonderful and I look forward to making them but I have to wait for tomatoes to come into season. So hang in there! Love, Mary
@@MarysNest ; ok Mary, 😘👱♀️, thanks🍎ooops thats an Apple, i understand now Mary sweet Marry. I wish you lived here by us Sweet Mary. Your so good to me. I appreciate it so much. 🍭💗 Debbie Sue
Hi Lynelle, Excellent question! I don't know the answer off the top of my head as to fig leaves so I will need to research that. I know that oak leaves, grape leaves, and mesquite are high in tannins but I have not heard about fig leaves. Stay tuned. ;-) Love, Mary
Maybe I missed the lesson when you talked about this but why do you call some of these 'pickles' is you are not using vinegar and sugar? I thought there was a distinction between pickles and ferments.
Great question. I use the term “pickles” when I am referring to fermented cucumbers...pickles. 🤗 Yes, “pickled” is with vinegar whereas ferments are not. Do you enjoy making traditional foods?

I’ve always said, if anything is going to pull this country out of the hole it’s digging itself, it’s going to be the wisdom of the old timers...like my grandparents, who raised my folks on farms. You, dear lady, are keeping some of that wisdom alive and recorded, so those of us who weren’t paying attention, or didn’t have the opportunity to, can apply it. Thank you Mary.
Oh Tim!! Thank you so much for the kind words!! My parents lived through the Great Depression of the 1930s and then WWII. They taught me about all the ways they managed to make it through and survive - from making a meal out of a broth made from nothing but bones to a Victory Garden. People back then were tough and they were brave. We all need to strive to be more like them. Do you enjoy making traditional foods? If so, I have a playlist of some of my videos titled "Mastering the Basics of Traditional Nutrient Dense Foods Cooking". It's a series of 15 detailed videos that covers How to Make Bone Broth, Cultured Dairy, Ferments, Sourdough Starter (my foolproof stater), Sourdough Bread, Soaked and Sprouted Nuts and Beans, and How to Soak and Sprout Grains to Make your own Sprouted Flour at Home.

I put caraway in my sauerkraut, me and my husband both love caraway. I also love my rye bread with caraway. When I was young we fermented in a crock in the basement and covered our kraut with grape leaves to hold it under the brine i used them over pickles too. I never thought about reducing salt. I also put bay leaves in pickles.

I'm a salty viewer. With regards to fridge storage: Take an unpowered thermometer (no batteries, big dial) and test various locations of your fridge. The way fridges are chilled is through a blower fan, which *can* mean your top shelf chills better, which means it's a colder zone. So know your fridge, especially with other products in it.
Always a wealth of information Mary thank you.. I am preparing to ferment but need to research enough info to actually be confident enough to take the leap… I do make milk kefir with raw milk almost daily and have become quite comfortable with that so I really want to try cabbage 🥬 with mixed veggies like carrots and onions etc … then will move on to sourdough bread 🍞… my ultimate goal…..I may become a pest 😂😂😂😂😂but definitely relying on your knowledge and sharing your experiences/expertise ….again thank you 🙏 Mary so much
Hi Mary I googled Kahm and it may be that. I will check it again tomorrow and see if I am able to skim the top off the sauerkraut. I hope I haven’t lost this one. I will definitely try again. I don’t give up very easily. Thank you for your videos. I’m learning all the time 🤗
Yes when I make my beet kavas it comes out salty. It's obvious I'm adding to much salt. Lol Thank you. You're a great teacher and I'm learning to eat healthy and loving it. You're the best on RUclips!!
I am such an eye-baller! The only thing I measure is my pickle brine, I have it written on the half gallon jar that holds my brine:) If my cabbage is not covered any more - because I let it sit in the basement, check it now and then and if it needs topped off I pour some on. Yes, every now and then my sauerkraut gets a bit too sour, but eaten with other foods it is usually not a problem. Thanks for all your great tips!
You answered so many questions this new fermenter had! Surprised you don't have more likes❤ Thanks!
Enjoy your vids and appreciate all the effort you put in; however, one thing I keep seeing repeated by many people is about chlorine Many municipalities in the US have switched to using chloramine, which doesn't break down (why they have switched) even with boiling. The only way to remove chloramine is by treating it with various devices or by distilling it. Filtration will not remove the chloramine, nor will adding salt, boiling, or letting it stand.
Mary! I just discovered your channel yesterday, and I love it!!! You have so many videos on things my sister and I have been exploring...I love kefir! I didn’t know you could make your own! My grocery store stopped carrying the plain variety which is my favorite. I love old cookbooks. I just bought an old Fannie Farmer cookbook and an old Toll House Tried and True cookbook from amazon. We have a Half Price books in Indiana too! Love it. I think my son is dyslexic. I’m a high school science teacher. Can you tell I’ve watched several of your videos already? I’m going off on those rabbit trails. Oh! And aprons! I just made my sister an apron for her birthday in January. I made the pattern to look like ones my grandma used to wear. I am so pleased to have found your channel. I’m already a devoted fan. Love Texas too. I’ve been to Dallas, and Gail and a few other places. So beautiful. I can’t wait to watch more of your wonderful videos.

Hello Mary. I do have a question after watching this video. Will it hurt to add vinegar to the ferment liquid. Like with sauerkraut does that sour taste develop over time. That's the taste I love. For example, I want the taste of store bought giardiniera. Love the learning process in watching your videos. Thank you.
Thank you all my major questions are all answer..it's very helpful to me as a beginner..i like to eat fermentation process and your vlog is interesting and useful ..now its time for me to search ph strips☺ thank you

Hi Mary, thanks for another great video. I followed your instructions for sauerkraut and I think I jumped the gun on putting it in the fridge. You've answered my question regarding it being too salty, however, its not very 'sour'. Can I test the PH after it has been in the fridge for a couple weeks? Will it continue to ferment once its in the fridge, or do I really need to start over?
I'm on to your sourdough next! You are such a valued and trusted resource and I am so delighted to have found your channel. Blessings fro Canada!
I did peppers, scallions, radishes, Carrots, cauliflower, a few garlic cloves,
and celery. I live in Florida. Keep the house at 78 with air on. Like you said, after 2 weeks the pepper and celery are mush. It is still very salty after 2 weeks. Smells great. I put it in the fridge. Hopefully that will cut the salt back. I never saw any bubbles but could smell it brewing. No rot or mold. Looks good. Is something wrong that I didn’t see bubbles?
Formants can be very persnickety. It’s really a process of trial and error. In warm weather I would not leave a ferment on the counter very long. Whether you see bubbles or not, when the temperature starts to get over 75°F, ferments struggle. In warm weather, leave your ferment on the counter for a few days and then refrigerate it. The fermentation process will continue in the fridge, just much slower. After about two weeks in the refrigerator the vegetables will start to absorb the brine and become more flavorful and the brine will become less salty. When you go to taste your vegetable it should be very tasty and any brine clinging to it should be less salty. Hope this helps.

Hi Sweet Mary,
I want to know once the ferment is ready and when we store in the frig, should the Saukeraut be covered with brine.
Thank you for all the information! I must order the referenced books as I am still new at this. For years I've been fermenting cabbage, but never ventured out into new items. I did apples the other day, and it failed. Way too much salt, so since I'm a huge fan of apples, I really want to get this down right. Thank you again, and stay well and safe....we love you!
I did the ph test on my ferment that I started 5 days ago and it was at 3.5. I think that it is ready! Do I take the wait out of the jar and put a canning lid and ring on the jars, than put them in the refrigerator? O r do I leave the glass wait in the Jars. Do I need to burp the jars after refrigeration? I did onions and parsley in one canning jar and cauliflower in three others. All had a ph of 4.0 and below! It is very warm here at present, so I think that it helped the fermentation take place faster. Thank you for the videos!
Love your video🤗🥰 about the tea bag, I know that some tea bags are bleach that may interfere with our fermentation, something to consider and use organic tea bags.
A little off subject but I wonder how you feel about pasteurizing vs canning. Shelf life the most likely better one than the other?
Hi Mary, I made the beet, cabbage, 1 apple, 3 cloves garlic, 1 clove, 1 small anise and it came out so DELICIOUS! My neighbor loves it. Thank you for inspiring me to try it. But I want to make one with lots of carrots, and other veggies. Can you use beans too? Can you make some more sauerkraut with other veggies besides cabbage?
Hi Bena, I am so happy to hear how well it turned out! Here is my playlist of all my vegetable ferments: ruclips.net/p/PLkRuW3pBo2U2EhVspEV5d4Xs2s4pcbHbr I think you will find lots of ferments that you'll enjoy making including carrots! Let me know what you think of this selection and also what other type of veggie ferments you would like to see me make. Love, Mary
I fermented some carrots sticks I used the easy grip fermenting lids
After 7 day I checked them for taste they had a white film on top so I scooped it out and rinsed the lid and glass weight
I Used the pump that came with the lids as directed will my fermentation be ok to eat
I will buy the strips you suggested that’s a good idea
Watching this video to help with my salty beet kvass while sipping my warm Mineral Broth!!! Yum yum yum!!! Thank you my sweet friend Mary!!😁
Hi Lisa, So happy this was helpful!! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Really informative Mary. Thanks. 🇬🇧
She talks SO DAMN MUCH. It’s over 1 minute in, for a video title about Q&A for fermentation, and she’s rambling and rambling about other topics. My god, this rambling at an astounding level…. Ok, at 2:15 she FINALLY STARTS the actual video. You’re welcome.
I used your recipe to make pickles. After about 5 days When I tasted them I could almost feel my blood pressure rise from the salt. Ok, maybe I didn’t wait long enough but my biggest complaint is that the skin on the pickles were tough as shoe leather. I used bay leaves for tannin. What would cause that tough skin.
Hi Bonnie, these are great questions. First of all, there can be variations in cucumbers, so that can play a role in the toughness of the skin.. Second, there are variations in fermentation times so your cucumbers may need to ferment longer. Keep them on the counter and continue to test the consistency. With the weather warming, you will want to refrigerate them within 14 days. In the refrigerator, the fermentation process will continue but at a much slower rate. Over time, as the cucumbers absorb more of the brine, they will become tastier, and the skins should soften. Ferments require a lot of patience. Unlike pickled foods that are made with sugar, salt, and vinegar, they are not ready quickly. ❤️🤗❤️
I love your videos & advice. Love the Teabag idea!! But I didn't get what to do if the brine is too salty even after all is DONE. I have a beet slaw that the salt level never calmed down. Is it a BUST?!?? THX
Hi Mary. Thank you for your very clear and thorough videos. I like the idea of adding brine to a ferment. Can I save my brine in the fridge? And can I mix brines if I’m storing them?
Imelda Fagin - Thank you for visiting and for the kind words. Yes, you can store your brine in the fridge and yes, you can mix them if you are not concerned about mixing different flavors.

My first ferment finished today. Sauerkraut. I was shocked that it was so salty but also it has a strong sulfur smell! Is that ok?
Thanks,
Very useful wrapup
Thank you Mary for you knowledge and taking the time to explain.

Hi Mary,
Can I add more fish brine to my sauerkraut because after a week , some of the vegetables were out of the brine solution as I did not have a weight, but initially it did have a weight . Then after 6 days I took off the coffee filter top and sealed it tight. It tastes ok.
I have added fresh brine to it so all veggies are under it .
Hi Mary! Thank you for all your videos. I'm learning so much! I've started some sauerkraut for the first time. A couple of my jars have started to show what I think is mold; these little white balls floating at the top of the brine. I've heard that that is normal but is very off-putting to me. Is this safe? How do you tell whether it's the "good" mold or bad. Thank you!
I am making the tomatoe basil ferment. I opened it and changed lids, it was bubbling over so I cleaned up the oversell. Now I hear you don't want air getting to it. Did I ruin it? I think tomorrow I need to refrigerate it..
Very very helpful. Both on the Tannins information and on the storage temperature. May look up fermenting with seeds too. Thanks for your channel!
Love this Mary. Thank you. I’m growing cucumbers and want to make pickles this year. The tea bag is going to come in handy to know. God bless y’all.
Hi Vera, Wonderful!! So happy this can help!! Love, Mary
Mary's Nest ❤️
Hi thanks for the sauerkraut video. Help, I wrote down the suggestion of 2% salt but I told my husband to use 20%. How can I fix my salty sauerkraut. I just started it today. . Can I rinse my cabbage and just add clean water to my cabbage? I made 2 small cabbages, a total of 2 pounds of cabbage & 4oz of salt, YIKES. THANKS AGAIN
When I made giardiniera, it didn't smell very good. I let it ferment for 4 days and then put it in the refrigerator, and it doesn't smell in there. BTW, it tastes great! But is it normal to smell bad while fermenting?
Hi Rebecca, That is a great question! Can you describe what you mean by "smell bad" - that can mean different things to different people. Did it smell like acetone - nail polish remover? That can smell "bad" to a lot of folks but it is just the "smell" of good bacteria. Ferments can also take on a strong alcohol smell which can be off-putting to some. If it has a nice tang to the taste, it sounds like it is OK but if the smell is very off-putting, rancid-like, you may want to throw it out. But it sounds like once you refrigerated it, it smelled and tasted OK. So maybe it is OK. Were you able to test the acidity with pH strips? Love, Mary
Thank you Mary for your response. To me it smells like I should have taken the garbage out 2 days ago. My fermented carrots did not have a bad smell. Maybe the cauliflower and onions just have a different smell while fermenting that I need to accept. In any event, it tastes great, so I will carry on with more fermenting. Thanks for all you do.
I NEVER would have thought of Tea Bags!! You are amazing Mary!!
🤜👍🤛♡♡♡
Also, I did not know he wrote two books! LOL. I own the wild fermenting book, but now I MUST have the hard back book!!
Thank you for telling me ♡♡♡

Can you use 1/4 cup of ginger bug (instead of whey ) and 1/2 the salt?
Should the 2.5% brine be related to the weight of: only the food, only the water or both of them?
Hi. I have my first batch and indeed it is very salty and I am looking for an way out. I ask this because it had a lot of brine but it was reabsorbed already. Should I throw it away and start over?
I've had my kraut fermenting for 7days. i have it in a regular mason jar. i have burped it once a day. my liquid has almost completely bubbled out when i open the cover and release it. What do i do. My kraut only has salt in it,
Love Sandor Katz!!!
Me too!! He truly is the king of fermentation!! Love, Mary
Thanks Mary good to know my beet kvass was salty . Wow the tea bag thing who new.
Thank you Mary you are awesome ❤️
My sauerkraut absorbed all the liquid after I stored it in the fridge. Is it still good?
Thank you for such a an informative video, as usual
Glad this was helpful. ❤️🤗❤️
Hi Mary, i fermented for the first time and i did radish and I have what looks like a cotton ball on the top it covered the whole top and came off in one piece, would the radish under it be still good?
I’ve helped my Dad make large crocks of kraut lots of times. Last year, my kraut went bad. This year the kraut is perking along, but disappointingly slow.
This year, my sea salt and spring water brine is 2.5% by weight to the nearest tenth of an ounce. Same for salt on the cabbage. House temperature is about only 67 in the day time, and 59 at night or if I’m not home. Not being in the 70s seems to push fermentation into creeper gear?
In addition to slowing down the fermenting process, what other side effects should be expected? Thanks for any help you can provide.

When you have your kraute sitting I covered my jar so it’s dark on my cabinet I have the cremating tube in it it was full of liquid when I checked it so I dumped some of it out tilted my jar was this the right thing to do? No I hope air didn’t get in it. ? Also can you take the tube of before it’s done and check inside or would you have to start over?
My sauerkraut has been on for about a week and it's still super salty (I didn't follow any particular recipe - my bad). Just wondering if I rinse it off, will I lose the nutritional benefits?
Hi Mary. I am definitely going to try the cucumber pickling method you use. I was wondering about fermenting lemons and lemon juice. I know it can be done, but the pH has to be adjusted. I took a couple of years ago some apple juice and set it in the sun for an hour or 2 for a couple of days. I had something working like crazy. Now I never added any sugar so some kind of local microbes were fermenting it. IDK what I made but it definitely fermented. Do you have any idea what was made. Not adding sugar, it didn't become vinegar. But it wasn't alcohol either. And there was sediment on the bottom. I would say from yeast working on the sugars there and dead yeast.
as soon as I will start consuming fermented veg, air would come in to fill the gap, is it just normal, or how to manage it, because air or oxygen is not good for the stuff
Its been about 2 weeks and no bubbles or burps in my honey and garlic. I stir it everyday and it is sealed tight. I keep it in a dark place with a temp around 73 degrees. is this normal? thank you
Excellent!!!!!
So happy you like this. ❤️🤗❤️
What if sauerkraut is too salty after several weeks of fermenting? Can it still be fixed?
Hi Judy, Great question. At that point, you will want to add some filtered water to dilute the brine. Hope this helps. Love, Mary
I find it all so delicious. Every step of the way. 😊
I added too much salt. Can my sour kraut be saved? It's been over two weeks and still too salty to eat.
Hello Mary. I have a problem with sauerkraut fermentation at the moment. This is the second batch that’s done this. Is it alright to eat. I’ve thrown one lot away already. I have a white cloudy film all over the top of my sauerkraut and I noticed today it’s even in my ACV, which it hasn’t done it in that before. Please advise. What am I doing wrong. Thank you. 😊
Hi Jacqueline, I understand completely. Is it fuzzy? If so, it is mold and you need to discard it. However, it sounds like kahm yeast. Look at a picture on the internet. Kahm yeast is not a problem. Just scoop it off and continue with your fermentation. Keep me posted. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
How do I get my sauerkraut to taste more tangy like the store bought. Mine is not very sour/tangy. What am I doing wrong?
I can’t wait to try this!!
Hi Cami! Thank you so much for visiting!! I am so happy to hear that you are interested in ferments!! These are great for a plant based diet!! Love, Mary
Mary, can I
Can use a plastic container instead of glass?

I put 1 1/2 tsp of canning salt per cup of hot pepper mash is this ok to keep fermenting of should i throw it away? Help pleas.
I watched a video where the lady put sugar and vinegar in her sauerkraut she also just put the shredded cabbage in jar with salt and hot water. Is that ok?
Great question. That method you are referring to is NOT fermentation. It will not be rich in good bacteria...probiotics. You will want to follow this method to make proper fermented sauerkraut: ruclips.net/video/EO90h3xB3oc/видео.html Hope this helps. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️

Hi Mary! Me again (you helped me with my acv question a few days ago) I began my sauerkraut last Monday (11th) and it is well weighted under water. But it really hasn’t changed much color and it definitely hasn’t bubbled. I do ‘burp’ it every day and it does burp! Haha. But, I just wonder why it hasn’t bubbled at all and the color hasn’t faded really.
It’s in my pantry where it’s a bit warmer than the kitchen (it’s winter here).
Thanks for your help!
Hi Pamela, So happy to help. Hmmm...sometimes ferments can take their sweet time. But you are making sauerkraut at a good time of year for your climate. Sauerkraut likes to ferment between 68F and 72F but can tolerate 65F. (I believe this is 20C - 22C and 18C, respectively.) if you are getting a “burp”, it is fermenting but can take quite awhile before it changes in color. Let it ferment for about 14 days on your counter and then transfer it to your fridge. Overtime, the cabbage absorbs more of the brine and will soften and change color and become quite tasty. Keep me posted. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Mary's Nest thank you so much for your reassurance! You are incredibly helpful!
Hi Mary.. this is the third week of my sauerkraut fermenting.. I tried it and it is very salty. I don’t know whether I should drain the brine aside, and rinse the kraut with filtered water, then add the drained brine.. OR what should I do?? The fermentation never bubbled, color has changed and there is no mold or anything weird. Help?
How about bread and butter pickles? Can they be fermented?
Hi Bonnie, Yes, But first you ferment them, then, once they are ready to be refrigerated, you add your sweetener. Similar to what I demonstrated in my red cabbage video: ruclips.net/video/N1Za25PCpVE/видео.html Love, Mary
After two weeks my sauerkraut is still very crispy, is that okay that way to refrigerate or can it ferment 1 more week! My house temperature is about 68-70 Fahrenheit
Please be careful if it's not fermenting in the first couple of days something might be wrong
Can I ferment veggies that I have frozen?
Hi Mary - Help! I followed your recipe for the fermented red cabbage to the letter and it’s been sitting on the side in an ok temperature since 18th August this year, I came to taste it today and it tastes and smells ‘earthy’ and dull - not at all tangy. There’s no mould on it and it’s all submerged and weighted. What did I do wrong??
probably your salt got other additive that stop the bacteria from growing. just make it again with different brand salt. things should be sour even in a couple days, at least for me.
I am puzzled as to why my cabbage is not fermenting. It has been in jars on the kitchen cabinet {covered} for about 3 weeks. It has not bubbled. It is not soft or dark but has a slight odor.
Hi Carol...hmmm...has the temperature in your kitchen been very cool? ❤️🤗❤️
@@MarysNest No it has been about 70. Does the amount of salt have anything to do with it?
Hi Mary, I am having a hard time with my catching a wild yeast! I am using plain bleached flour because it was all I had. But I switched over to unbleached. Still it is very slow going. My kitchen is rather cold and we have well water. I started it on Good Friday, and I have made some bread twice, but it was not a success. It just didn’t rise hardly at all! But still if cut very thin and toasted it was good. But very hard to cut through. Way too dense and heavy. Not really done. So, if I keep on, will it eventually get there? It does have some nice bubbles but not foamy at all yet. Can you address that? Thank you. It is still out on the counter and I feed it twice a day.
Hi Cassandra, I understand completely. Sometimes getting a sourdough starter going can be VERY difficult. There are SO many variables as to the conditions in your kitchen surroundings...temperature, availability of natural yeasts in the air, the weather, on and on. It can take a lot of time and patience to get a traditional flour starter going...and sometimes, you may have to revert to some other options of fermentation to raise bread that would work better given your kitchen conditions. I have some videos coming up over the next few weeks where I will be exploring these options. But at this point, what I would suggest is that you feed your starter every 8 hours and that in place of water, you use a simplified version of yeast water. Traditional Yeast water is a bit more involved than this method (and I’ll be showing the detailed method in an upcoming video) but what I would recommend is putting some dried fruit in a pint sized jar - about a 1/4 of the way full. Then I would pour some water over the raisins - up to about half way full. Leave this on your counter for a few days, then strain the water and use that, along with your flour, to feed your starter. This version of yeast water may jump start your starter. You can use any type of dried fruit if you don’t have raisins. You can also use fresh fruit but it does not work as well. Also, if you can try and keep your starter in a warm place...maybe top of the fridge or in the oven - tuned off - but with the electric light or pilot light on, that might help. Stay in touch and keep me posted. We will get to the bottom of this. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Mary's Nest oh thank you so much Mary! I am fairly determined to do this. I have wanted to make sourdough for a long time! I am going to try the raisin water right away! Or as soon as I get some. Thanks again. A few years ago I even bought some starter from King Auther and don’t remember being that successful even with that; didn’t get a good rise. But I will persevere! 😃😉
Cassandra Casto - I am very sympathetic. Sometimes it can be so thought to get these starters going depending on where you live. If you are able at some point to get some whole wheat ... or even rye flour, try a bit of that in a feeding. It can do wonders. And then once it’s strong, you can transition back to all purpose flour. We’ll tackle this together. ❤️🤗❤️
How long do they last in the refridgerator
Hi Vicki, It varies but generally about 6 months but they are at their peak within the first three months. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest Thank you so much and for the quick reply...🥰
Great info, thanks! The tea shouldn't add too much flavor because the temp never gets to a point where the leaves "steep".
What if after 17 days its still to salty? 😅 is there a smart solution then?
Loved this opening, Mary! Thanks for the great information. Lots of us don't know what to expect when learning to ferment different things.
God bless and stay safe,
Rob
Hi Rob, LOL!! Glad you liked the beginning. I get that frantic email so much!! Yes, ferments can be such a challenge sometime!! God bless, Mary🤗
Hi Mary 💖❤️
Hi Valerie, Hope you are doing well this evening. ❤️🤗❤️

I have fig trees. Will fig leaves work for tannins?
Hi Lynelle, Excellent question! I don't know the answer off the top of my head as to fig leaves so I will need to research that. I know that oak leaves, grape leaves, and mesquite are high in tannins but I have not heard about fig leaves. Stay tuned. ;-) Love, Mary
Mary's Nest Thank you for the reply. I can do the research. So enjoy your videos.
Salt will not kill you. Sugar will.
Maybe I missed the lesson when you talked about this but why do you call some of these 'pickles' is you are not using vinegar and sugar? I thought there was a distinction between pickles and ferments.
Great question. I use the term “pickles” when I am referring to fermented cucumbers...pickles. 🤗 Yes, “pickled” is with vinegar whereas ferments are not. Do you enjoy making traditional foods?
