What's for dinner tonight?

[freemotion]

Wow, that recipe sounds like a modern version of fermented peppers! Should be exactly what I have in my fermenting fridge about now.....awesome! (Chopped peppers, seeded, sea salt, whey, fermented until a bit sour.....which is what the vinegar does in more modern recipes!) Cool! Er....I mean.....hot!

Yep yep. I thought it sounded like my dad's sauce, just with whey instead of vinegar, back when you were talking about your peppers. I didn't have my recipe book/pages sitting on my desk

I'm still working through our last batch. I put too many habaneros in it. HOT!
What do you think about making a batch of very mild, with whey & mixing the 2 together? How do whey & vinegar interact?

I think the antibacterial properties of vinegar would kill the lactobacilli, so only mix them well after the fermentation process is completed. Maybe when you are preparing dinner, rather than keeping a jar of the two mixed together in your fridge. Well-fermented peppers will have enough sour to taste like the recipe with the vinegar, for future reference. I SO wish I'd made more dill pickles when I had the fresh dill and cukes coming in. They are quite sour without being vinegary. Yum.

Darn :/
Okie-day, I'll give that a try. I still have pepper producing in dribs & drabs, wheeeee!

 

[freemotion]

Yeah, darn for sure. I say that everytime I think of my bumper crop of cukes and that one little quart of dill pickles that I am saving for....um....the dead of winter? I still have a jar of cuke salsa and the bruschetta thing I made, so another taste of summer to be saved for the first big blizzard!
