i will pickle everything! i will pickle YOUUUUUUU!

[snugglekitty]

So, the herbalist katjamama has put me on a regimen of eating lots of things that are naturally fermented, and thus full of probiotic goodness. I got to see a book from her collection, Wild Fermentation by Sandor Katz, and got really excited by it. Now I have the same book out of the library. The possibilities seem endless!

Here are things on my "try making it soon" list:
- pickled onions (on salad, on sandwiches, with meat or fish)
- kombucha (a fermented drink made from black tea - I just need a starter culture)
- kombucha with green tea
- kombucha with limeade
- ginger carrots
- homemade ginger beer
- pickled beets

I'm also fascinated by the idea of pickling fruit naturally, and something like a fermented babaganoush, but I think I need more information before I dive off those particular deep ends. :)

I am lucky enough to be indulged in this by mrpet. Hopefully he'll continue to be patient with my novice pickling attempts. :)
