ferments

Lisa asked me for a colourful photo this week, i should have thought to take this when i first made them as the colours have dulled a bit. Fire cider on the left, curtido on the right. hoping they wlll help keep the lurgies at bay!

On first glance thought you were preserving insects 😁

It looks like these jars are continuing a process that will produce wonderful flavours!

Thought it may be Kimchi.

Bold colors!

Still very colorful at any stage. Sounds wonderful, I am going to give this a try, without the chile and horseradish bits- we have some allergies here. Thanks for the link.

@kali66 your challenge seems like great fun, definitely one way to drown out the anxious noise around us. As for your challenge, I'm so taken with the cape gooseberries picture, and so focused on gardens (it's spring here; planting and sprouting are happening) that I will shamelessly request a food from the garden photo, perhaps a collage or dyptich that shows the food growing and then ready for consumption, or maybe even the whole trail from garden to plate, whatever strikes your fancy.

@francoise ok, can do :)

Wow I can't imagine them being brighter! I'm very curious about these. I'll check your links

What do you serve the curtido with? Or do you put it on a sandwich?
April 6th, 2020  
@dustyloup it is apparently served as a side, like sauerkraut is, but unfortunately i think mine is developing mould so perhaps i shouldn't find out!

@kali66 here's hoping it's just yeast and not mold!
