Microorganisms

" Come on friends and lend me an ear,
  I'll explain the connection between wine and beer,
  And sourdough and yogurt and miso and kraut,
  What they have in common is what it's all about.
  Oh the microorganisms,
  Oh the microorganisms..."

~Nettles from "wild fermentation"
  by Sandor Ellix Katz


The cabbages have been
growing for months and
are now ready:

Using one of my favorite books
I will be spending the weekend
making kimchi and sauerkraut.

I hope your weekend is a
productive and joyous one. xx

    Okay, I googled it.
    Some one else can have my share of kimchi.

    The deli where we have lunch has wonderful soup.
    The Soup Master puts sauerkraut in ham & beans as well as several other of his soups. All of which are super YUMMY ! ! ! !

    Hugs,
