I'm going to start mine off today and pickle some beetroot.
I've just ordered kosher salt ,I think it may be best for fermentation
The cabbage may be a bit dry, you may nee to add a cup of water and then wait a few days, repack it down and add more if there isnt enough to cover the cabbage.I have a cabbage that has been in the fridge a while. I'm hoping someone can tell me if this is okay to use,? I want to spice mine as I have a nice locally grown Chile here.
Thank you for the pointer, I wasn't sure even after searching for adviceThe cabbage may be a bit dry, you may nee to add a cup of water and then wait a few days, repack it down and add more if there isnt enough to cover the cabbage.
I have done beets, they are great on salads
I just use sea salt,Thank you for the pointer, I wasn't sure even after searching for advice
So I just did the bread and the beetroot today plus I made what we call a stew, I boiled up a beef bone with onions garlic and ginger than added locally grown root vegetables.
I might wait until the kosher salt arrives for the sauerkraut and then pickle my eggs while I'm at it.
I roasted the beef and had a nice few dinners along with my animal'sI just use sea salt,
I have beef bones and make bone broth. I roasted mine in the oven last time so some of the marrow fat cooked off, I cant handle to much of the oil, but then I boiled them in the pressure cooker. I refrigerated the broth over night and cut the fat off. i know some use the fat to cook with.

So are you eating the marrow for dinner?I roasted the beef and had a nice few dinners along with my animal's
Then I boiled my bone with my softened onions and garlic which wer8e cooked in olive oil first. I managed too get the marrow out of the bone and have a nice portion remaining ready for dinner this evening. Its It's surprising how many meals I got out of that beef
I have a pressure cooker but I like using my enamelled iron pan for some reason
I just spoke to the farmer and asked for another beef cut, I was misunderstood and they thought I asked for marrow bones then I got through what I meant and now I'm getting both marrow bones and this amazing beef. I like those kind of mistakes that gains goodness, happy day's.
