    I have been fermenting vegetables for over 10 years now and never had any issues or got sick. Getting all my healthy probiotics from fermented sauerkraut, kimchi, onion, peppers, leeks, carrots, radishes, etc. Never had to buy expensive probiotics in my life and my gut health is thriving! 🙏🏻👌

    Dear Adrienne, first of all I just want to say thank you for all of your hard work, dedication in all of your videos; and for sharing all of your wisdom. You are beautiful inside and out. I’ve just recently started some fermenting of vegetables myself while watching your videos, I’m excited to see the outcome of that; I tried to follow every single step. I even made the facial cream that you suggested, and I love it; it’s great and it’s all natural. It’s very cost effective too, I will not be buying those facial creams that make all kinds of promises with no results. I wanted to ask you a favor when you have the time of course!!! if you would make a video on how you take care of your hair. Shampoo/ conditioner etc…..I love your hair, it’s so healthy looking. I am just done with all the chemicals and artificial ingredients that are put in store bought cleansers which leave my hair oily and lifeless. Thank you again for all that you do! Happy New Year🎉 and May God bless you and your family abundantly.

It’s creative, satisfying, and truly delicious.

    I really do like your presentations. Very informative and to the point. And easy to listen to. Thank you... Oh and best of days to you for the new year.
    I have some suggestions that I formed from experience.
    No fermentation weight? I only have a few so I use: 1. Cottage cheese or sour cream lids. I cut them to fit below the shoulder of the jars. They are made of food safe plastic. 2. For my 1 gallon jar that is not a canning jar (the lid fits tight but doesn't screw on), I use a light plastic garbage bag with salt water brine in it. It will form fit to the sides and seal out oxygen. 3. When cutting cabbages from my garden I end up with a lot of leaves that would normally be discarded. After cleaning thoroughly I used these by stuffing them over the top of the kraut mixture. Sometimes i have to cut them a little to work them in but even if they mold, the kraut doesn't. BTW, those cabbage leaves that usually get thrown out are still edible. Keep that in mind when things get really bad.

    Hello. I'm new to fermentation. You mention that under ideal temperature conditions, the vegetables should be ready to refrigerate in about 4 or 5 days. Have you ever fermented longer? Is there a point where the fermentation becomes too acid and the vegetables become bitter? Or is it a personal preference to taste and one must expirement? Thank you for your videos.

    • @blessisrael6455
      @blessisrael6455 6 месяцев назад

      Hello, some ferment over a wk, even 2-4 weeks; fermenting this long diminishes the probiotics as the bacteria runs out of food and the acidifying bacteria turn to a more vinegar-type of brine over time;
      For Cabbage, fermenting is good 6-7 days; but other vegetables are different; other vegetables like carrots are crisp when cultured and don't get very sour due to the sugar content and can backfire when over-fermented; 3 days is all takes…… ; )

    Dear Adrienne, your videos are pleasant to watch and you do a great job of showing and explaining your points. Thank you. Will you please help and take into consideration a scenario I just experienced with my first fermentation attempt. On Wednesday, Dec 27, 2023 (about 10 days ago) I made sauerkraut with cabbage, carrot, onion, garlic, ginger, lemon. I put the perperation in o a kilner 170 oz fermenting jar with a cabbage leaf and weight keeping the food under the cabbage leaf submerged into the brine, with a glass weight on top (following all your steps on the kraut video). The food only filled about 60% of the jar and there was maybe 6+ inches of airspace up top before the lid. In the last few days, I noticed that the top inch of the preparation looked like it wasn't completely submerged in the brine anymore due to it drying out. Also the cabbage leaf was spoiling and the bits of sauerkraut on the top layer looked a little discolored. After watching your video here, I realized this is a problem and took out the cabbage leaf and about a cup of the sauerkraut preparation up top out, and discarded it. I then sampled about a tablespoon of the fermentation, and took about 28 oz of water mixed with about 3/4 tablespoon of salt and added this brine to the top. I then put a silicone topper with a weight over the preparation and it is now completely submerged. Is the a safe way of correcting a problem taking place, or does this sauerkraut need to be thrown away? I hope that tablespoon of preparation I just sampled doesn't make me sick? I will really appreciate you reflection upon this scenario and please let me know if you have any questions.
    Thank you very much

    • @xlntnrg
      @xlntnrg 6 месяцев назад +2

      Working fine for me, but I only use it as starter culture (like 2-3 tablespoons brine for a 1.5 liter fermentation jar) to ensure that the amount of good bacteria is both high and predominant from the beginning, and for speeding up the acid production, preventing bad bacteria from growing. Using brine from a good batch as a starter seem to reduce the risk for getting bad results in general. I avoid using brine from batches with kahm yeast though (I rarely get kahm yeast anyway).

Would you have any idea what would cause this? Thank you for your time.

    • @CleanFoodLiving

      Things like that can be caused by what's going on in the jar with the microbes. They're invisible so we have no idea which species, how many of which, etc. that may be causing it. But microbial shifts are typically the cause. Just Happens sometimes when fermenting with wild microbes - no need to worry though!

    Thank you for your instructional videos! I've started fermenting my own pickles, and I'm running into a problem that is baffling me. My first try was with picking cucumbers and fresh dill on the stem, and it turned out great. Since it's not harvest season now, I'm left with regular cucumbers and loose dill weed that is dry.
    So this is my latest try, and what it is doing: cut spears so only halfway filled height of jar; still put dill, garlic, cloves, and coriander at bottom under cucumbers; put cucumber slices under weight to ensure things stayed down; day two or three bubbles caused over flow, so changed paper towel; day 5 smell was off, calm yeast had formed, and bubbles still trapped inside. Smell has not improved, what could be going wrong? I wash things with hot soapy water, except the cucumbers... I just rinse those. Any ideas or suggestions?
