Have you made fire cider before? Do you have another homeremedy that keeps you feeling good or helps out with a cough, cold, sore throat or flu? Let me know down in the comments! If you want to try your hand at growing your own ginger, check this video out! ruclips.net/video/1q6_xOsOJRY/видео.html
Hey, I haven't made this yet, but I intend to. I wondered, though, if there is something that can be substituted for the cayenne. My mother can't have cayenne pepper, so I wondered if there was anything else that might be similar? Also, if I don't have any fresh ingredients, can I use store-bought ground ingredients, and in what quantities?
Hi there! That’s actually great news. I hope that you do go to try! Is it just Cayenne pepper that she has a problem with or is it all capsicum? You can definitely omit any part or piece that you don’t like, or have an allergy too. You can definitely switch fresh gradients for powdered or dried in most cases, the dried ingredients you would use roughly half of the quantity for the fresh ingredients. You can also add in things like fresh onion. I also have added horseradish, which is really good if you omit the peppers, I would say the most critical items would be the lemon juice, the garlic and the honey. Those things together really do work well together. I hope that helps!
Thanks for this video. What I do and this just what works for me and my family is just plain mixtures of all chopped up ingredients in a mason jar and just use them when I eat salad as my dressing so I use olive oil as well. But I do understand what you do because I’ve done that too when I have sniffles which is great! Thanks again for this video. Stay blessed!
Oooooo! That sounds like a delicious way to help eat your medicine! I never actually thought of doing it that way, but it oil infusion would work great and be extremely tasty. I’m gonna have to give this a try. Thank you so much for sharing!
I’m so glad you liked it! Obviously, you can add other items and like I mentioned, but this is a good solid base and works really well. Once you give a try, I’d love to hear your thoughts or any changes or additions you make!
@@TexasGardenDocthank you for the response! I was hoping to see more current videos. I wasn’t sure what the latest ones that you’ve posted are but the last I saw what how to make ginger beer and you said you would post how to make the ginger bug. Did you post that one already?
I have not posted it yet, although it is filmed. I just recently tried to film another video and get it edited and out which I’m still working on explaining what’s been happening as far as videos go it’s been kind of a wacky year and a half, basically it comes down to technical difficulties and time and just other life happening. But yes, I do have that video filmed! If I can ever get editing back on track, it will be going up, I do wish that it was up because I’ve had lots of people ask. I just wasn’t able to edit it before my computer gave out!
Believe it or not, I still have not tried it as a marinade, but I’m telling you it has got to be delicious! If you do give that a try, I’d love to hear what you think!
Fantastic! Thanks for posting. Will use your recipe when we need new Fire Cider. I've used a kitchen mix of honey-garlic-jalapeño for sinus issues and bought remade Fire Cider for colds. Happier to make my own Fire Cider!
That’s great! I’d love to hear what you think of it too! I’ve done the honey and garlic ferment, but I never thought to add peppers, that’s brilliant! I’m gonna give that a try too.
Thank you for sharing this information for colds and coughs,I’m going to try it I’ll leave the turmeric out cos I suffer from high blood pressure, also I love listening to your quotes at the end of segments, god bless from Australia 🇦🇺
How do you from Texas! You live in a truly wonderful country, full of diverse landscapes, and really great people! I’m glad you liked it and if you do make it, I’d love to hear what you think of it. I went through that batch pretty quick, and had to make a couple others over the winter this year. It definitely helps keep things from spiraling out of control when the colds kicked in! Best wishes to you, and I really hope that the recipe helps you out!
Thank you so much , natural remedies are far better than pharmaceutical drugs which take ages to leave your body and have harmful side effects. Excellent info , thanks for sharing.
So true! It’s funny to me that most of the drugs, if not all, that are in production to day are really just a synthetic and concentrated version of what we can find in nature! I really do love this stuff. This and my elderberry syrup are probably two of the three things we use every year!
@@TexasGardenDoc Hey Doc, I just came across your channel and fire cider video and I LOVE your recipe!!! ~ I'll look to see if you did a vid on your Elderberry syrup recipe also! Thanks for this channel.. I've always wanted a batch of fire cider to keep in the fridge and have on hand, but something about the DOZENS of videos I've listened to, I just haven't done it? Even with all the LOADS of different recipes, every one's own tweaks etc I wasn't motivated, but yours is the BEST fire cider vinegar recipe I've heard so far!! And I'm making a batch tomorrow!! TY!👍👍😉
That’s fantastic! We do use it quite a bit. In fact, I get pretty bad hayfever due to allergies every year, so in the spring time I use it quite a bit as well. In fact, I used up most of that bottle within about a month and made a fresh batch as well! I really like it and I hope you do too. There are definitely so many different recipes that you can make out there, it really just comes down to the one that works best for you. I have not made the elderberry syrup video yet. Truth be told I have such a large batch left, that I will have any space to make more! Lol but I have a feeling this year will be making it again. Do you let me know how you liked it, and if you found it easy, and helpful as well. I’d love to find out how it went! Also, thank you so much for the kind words I really appreciate that!
I recently made a similar recipe of Fire Cider, however, it calls for straining the ingredients. I really like your idea of leaving those ingredients in. A meat marinade sounds awesome too 😉. Love your knife.
I knew I wasn’t the only one! I really do like leaving them in, it just seems to get better and better over time. Oh man I love that knife! I got it this last fall, and I use it for everything now! It took me a hot minute to get used to the curved blade, it’s heft and how thick the taper is, but it so easy to control and cuts through everything! It’s a huusk knife. Very happy with it!
That it is! It’s amazing what all these plants give us in nutrition and health. We’ve mostly forgotten that, so it’s good to do a little of this whenever we can. Same to you!
This is a great recipe. I will vouch for the ginger keeping viruses away. Haven't been sick in over 5 years and last time I was detoxing. The only suggestion I would make here is to forego the micro wave. Radiation.
Lol, what’s funny about that is I rarely use the microwave to do that! I did it because I had forgotten to get a pot and get it going on the stove and I had a limited amount of time to film a video while I was making it. When I was editing the video, I thought well, that’s dumb, you should’ve just put a pot back there! I completely agree with you! I don’t know how much it really affects but really there’s no need for it at all. It is crazy how much wholesome foods such as ginger and other herbals and medicinals can really change your life. Thank you so much for your comment. I loved it and I’m so glad to hear that you like the recipe as well!
Great recipe! Just by intuition , I added a tsp. of Cinnamon powder and 1 tsp. of similarly well grinded (peeled) green apple - about 5 minutes ago and will taste it hopefully next month :)
Oh, that’s a great little hack! I bet the taste will be phenomenal! I’d love to hear what you think of it when you try it. That could be a very interesting flavor!
It was my pleasure to share. Thank you so much for your time, I sure do appreciate it. If you have any questions, I’m always here, so don’t hesitate to reach out!
Could I make a small suggestion and mix everything into a jug then pour into the bottle rather than struggle with the nozzle? Thanks for sharing the remedy. Will try it.😊
Hi there! That’s actually how I always made it before, in a mason jar. I started using these because they don’t take up as much space in the refrigerator. It would also be much easier if I strained it out before putting it into the tall bottle, but I really like to leave all those pieces in chunks in there. At one point I did leave it in a jar for about a month and then strained it into the bottles, but I really missed all those pieces! I’d love to hear what you think of it when you try it, I think it really taste great. Really spicy, but I like spicy!
@@TexasGardenDoc will do. Live in asia so spicy is part of our daily food intake. 😊 and have home grown ginger going wild in my pot in the balcony. Stay blessed.
That’s excellent! You are in the land of flavor and spice! Asian cuisine is absolutely hands-down, my favorite. It’s got such complex flavors and textures. I just can’t get enough! That may be actually blasphemy given the fact that I live in Texas and I should’ve said Tex-Mex, but it’s true! And I. Thank you so much bless you as well!
Love the vids. I actually do similar but add a couple tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to my cold remedy. Plus i harvested one of my potted ginger plants as it wasn't doing well and got about a 3inch harvest out of it. Reason for early harvest was our weather up here got to -47°c a few weeks ago so our heater was right to max to stay warm and plants didnt fair to good with it
Allen! So great to hear from you again! That’s interesting the extra virgin olive oil definitely could help with something like this. That’s a great idea. I’ll have to keep it in mind! Yes, the weather chaos has been less than desirable I think for everyone. All of my early fall plantings which should not have gotten a hard freeze until late January or early February, got hit in early December. That means I lost a bunch of my fall in early spring vegetables. I’ve been needing to replant, but I’ve been so busy moving to my new garden and getting things organized and I haven’t had much time. It’s good that you got to use some of that ginger that wasn’t doing well though. At least it doesn’t go to waste and you can use it. Hopefully the weather stabilizes into something we would call normal soon, I don’t think I can take much more either! Lol.
I use it so much, that I have never had a chance to try it, but I’ve been saying it for years. Maybe this is the year I actually use it as a marinade! Lol.
That’s fantastic! If I kind of feel like something is coming on, I will take around 25 mL or 1 ounce once a day. If I already feel like I’m sick or I have a bad sore throat I’ll take about that same amount two or maybe three times a day. I’d say there’s no real hard and fast rule, but that seems to work for me so you can adjust it anywhere you need to until you feel like it’s doing its job. I hope that helps, and I can’t wait to hear what you think about it!
That’s a very good question. The truth is is that lemon and limes are very similar. However, from my understanding, lemons contain a few more particular chemicals that really help the body to heal and stave off infections, and viruses. I don’t know that limes have the same effect, I know they won’t hurt to add to the formulation, but I would try to add lemon, if it all possible.
Yeah, I’ve always debating about that! Lol for years I’ve always just left at room temperature, but it drives me nuts with the honey gums up my final.😂 He was only for about 10 or 15 seconds. It wasn’t bad so don’t worry lol. I’m glad you liked it and you’re right next time I’ll put it in a pot just slightly warm it. Thank you so much for your comment if you give it a try, I’d love to hear how you like it or not!
hey doc.what is the name of the red peper you use in the mix?no sure if i can buy this type of peper in australia,the other chinese reciepy i use is 1/2 jar with honey and 5 tsp of chop ginger and let it sit with honey for 3 weeks in the cupboard then you see ginger and hone producing a nice liquid,also good for the body ,one chop pear with honey in a large jar,you can make hot drink or mixed with smoothy
That honey recipe sounds a lot like fermented garlic, but with ginger. I’ve never tried that but the honey fermented garlic is excellent. I’m going to have to give honey fermented ginger a try! The red pepper is cayenne pepper but any hot chili will work pretty much the same. In the states it’s found with all the other cooking spices at the grocery. Don’t know if that helps or not though.
@@TexasGardenDoc i will check at the asian store in town on monday,but with honey you can try with any fruit,chinese use red pear and honey and it is delicious with tea and chinese date very healthy.also i have another tip for you to kill fruit bugs or insets,2 tsp of vegemite with one cup of orange juice and 3 tsp of washing detergen into a softfrink plastic bottle.,at the top of the neck of the bottle punch few holes so the bugs will get into the mix and put the lid on the top of the bottle and hang the bottle some where in the fruit tree.pretty sure you can buy australian vegemite jar,we use vegemite on our toast
Very good! I didn’t know you could do that with all different kinds of fruits. It sounds like you’re making a fruit fly or fruit insect trap. Very interesting. I’ve heard of Vegemite and I know what it is but I don’t know if I can get it here or not I’ll have to look and see. That’s great advice!
@@TexasGardenDoc exactly right doc.always learning diferent things and with snails in your garden you can place a small glass jar in the ground,first you preper your location where you get lots of snails then dig a small hold and place the jar with out the lid and put your favour beer in the jar and cover around the jar with some dirt
@@TexasGardenDoc the good thing with this experiment is you can put a hand full of ginger in a bucket of honey and once all done then few weeks later mix the honey and ginger then place it in the fridge,but also you can still use some of the ginger on cooking,asian food.also try honey and orange,pear,apple.once i fine the chinese reciepy then i will share to you then after you can share with other people
There is no reason you cannot use it for kids! I would say that the taste might be a bit strong for young ones, unless they happen to like spicy things. I would say I would not use it under someone the age of about four or five. Also, if they have any conditions or medication‘s are taking certain things like the turmeric should probably be left out and you should talk to your doctor about it. The best part of these types of remedies is that they are all things you can eat every day without any affect!
Yes that is true. However. If you go to the store to buy ground cayenne you won’t find ground cayenne CHILIES powder. You will find cayenne or cayenne pepper. You aren’t wrong but I tried to speak in familiar terms. Chilies actually describe a very large group. Your point is noted and thank you for that!
@@TexasGardenDoc es been over FIVE HUNDRED YEARS since Columbus misnamed Chiles because he thought he had landed on India. Es time to stop feeding the stupid
Easy there buddy. What is a capsicum? It’s a pepper. What is a chili? It’s a capsicum. People throughout history have done terrible things, and wonderful things. However to argue the word chili versus pepper, is incorrect. Botanical names, also known as scientific names, are the true identifiers of all plant and animal species. COMMON names are the vernacular word used to describe items within the scientific names. Are you wrong about how things were’ mislabeled’ probably not. Are you wrong that a capsicum, common name ‘pepper’ is not also a ‘chili’ yes, to some degree you are incorrect, and to some degree you are correct as well! I don’t have any issue trying to identify the origins of a common name or a scientific name. What I do have a problem with is calling people stupid because they don’t agree with your world view. If you want to have a history and science discussion, we can absolutely do that. But do me a favor, leave out other people that are not attempting to insult anyone and who are simply going by the names they’ve always heard and are presented with. Only warning that I have is this; have a civil discussion, and leave emotional facts out of the conversation. If you want to do that we can. If you can’t do that, I will remove you. I don’t think you are wrong, just off base I. Your approach to how you handle cultural differences.

@@TexasGardenDoc i will check at the asian store in town on monday,but with honey you can try with any fruit,chinese use red pear and honey and it is delicious with tea and chinese date very healthy.also i have another tip for you to kill fruit bugs or insets,2 tsp of vegemite with one cup of orange juice and 3 tsp of washing detergen into a softfrink plastic bottle.,at the top of the neck of the bottle punch few holes so the bugs will get into the mix and put the lid on the top of the bottle and hang the bottle some where in the fruit tree.pretty sure you can buy australian vegemite jar,we use vegemite on our toast
Very good! I didn’t know you could do that with all different kinds of fruits. It sounds like you’re making a fruit fly or fruit insect trap. Very interesting. I’ve heard of Vegemite and I know what it is but I don’t know if I can get it here or not I’ll have to look and see. That’s great advice!
@@TexasGardenDoc exactly right doc.always learning diferent things and with snails in your garden you can place a small glass jar in the ground,first you preper your location where you get lots of snails then dig a small hold and place the jar with out the lid and put your favour beer in the jar and cover around the jar with some dirt
@@TexasGardenDoc the good thing with this experiment is you can put a hand full of ginger in a bucket of honey and once all done then few weeks later mix the honey and ginger then place it in the fridge,but also you can still use some of the ginger on cooking,asian food.also try honey and orange,pear,apple.once i fine the chinese reciepy then i will share to you then after you can share with other people
Can you use it for kids?
There is no reason you cannot use it for kids! I would say that the taste might be a bit strong for young ones, unless they happen to like spicy things. I would say I would not use it under someone the age of about four or five. Also, if they have any conditions or medication‘s are taking certain things like the turmeric should probably be left out and you should talk to your doctor about it.
The best part of these types of remedies is that they are all things you can eat every day without any affect!
Cayenne's actually a CHILE; not pepper
Yes that is true. However. If you go to the store to buy ground cayenne you won’t find ground cayenne CHILIES powder. You will find cayenne or cayenne pepper. You aren’t wrong but I tried to speak in familiar terms. Chilies actually describe a very large group. Your point is noted and thank you for that!
@@TexasGardenDoc es been over FIVE HUNDRED YEARS since Columbus misnamed Chiles because he thought he had landed on India.
Es time to stop feeding the stupid
Easy there buddy. What is a capsicum? It’s a pepper. What is a chili? It’s a capsicum. People throughout history have done terrible things, and wonderful things. However to argue the word chili versus pepper, is incorrect. Botanical names, also known as scientific names, are the true identifiers of all plant and animal species. COMMON names are the vernacular word used to describe items within the scientific names. Are you wrong about how things were’ mislabeled’ probably not. Are you wrong that a capsicum, common name ‘pepper’ is not also a ‘chili’ yes, to some degree you are incorrect, and to some degree you are correct as well! I don’t have any issue trying to identify the origins of a common name or a scientific name. What I do have a problem with is calling people stupid because they don’t agree with your world view.
If you want to have a history and science discussion, we can absolutely do that. But do me a favor, leave out other people that are not attempting to insult anyone and who are simply going by the names they’ve always heard and are presented with.
Only warning that I have is this; have a civil discussion, and leave emotional facts out of the conversation. If you want to do that we can. If you can’t do that, I will remove you.
I don’t think you are wrong, just off base I. Your approach to how you handle cultural differences.
Hi, where do you have your garden in Texas?
I know, I replied the other comment, but just in case I live just north of Houston.
