I have a gallon jar of sauerkraut wrapped up with a heating pad on low heat on the go here in Canada! 5050 red and green cabbage with purple onion and large carrot.Counting the days! CHEERS from Here!

[@auntielaureningeorgia8806]

This is by far the best sauerkraut class/video that I have seen in years. Bravo🎉

[@debbean6637]

I wish I’d had this video when I started fermenting. This is brilliant.

[@jeralewis3920]

I just made three jars of fennel sauerkraut with carrots and your directions were spot on. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge!

[@TheJoan48]

I'm so glad I found you. I'm older now and in great need of fermented foods. I recently did a hair test and found out I'm low on several bacterial strains. I've never really eaten fermented foods because I was never taught how necessary they are. We sure lost alot of ancient knowledge over the generations. I'm so grateful for this video. I'm going to try making my first batch very soon. You helped me so much. Thank you.

[@MrIrrationalSmith]

I recently started brewing kombucha, and I'm borderline obsessed with fermentation. I love how fermented foods are shelf stable and "cook"/prepare themselves automatically.

[@kisutis]

Love fermented vegetables! my dad since my chilhood is preparing the best ever sourkraut or sour cabbage as soon as firsr colder weather starts in november,, that we eat all winter - around 5 kg with caraway seeds and cranberries in natural wooden jar kept outside. There are some techniques to keep cabbage crispy and tasty, should learn from my dad till he is alive. Also he bakes perfect rye bread with 7-8 types of different seeds usibg fermentation starter (no yeast) that he makes himself from rye flour.

[@janice2992]

@kisutis cleaver Dad. Ask for his recipes, methods and his family's name's, dates of birth, where, who they married and children ect as much as you can learn. Write it all down. All stories and events can be passed down and people like to know. You may become closer to relatives than you were before. Older family are a wealth of knowledge. Who did your dad learn from, chances are other family members are likely to be gifted in food prep. 😋💖

Hi Adrienna,, your channels somehow showed while i was browsing youtube.. and little i know i got hooked in fermentation thru your channel and dove into my first fermented carrots and i guess it was succesful. I started only last December of 2023. Thanks to you, and the way you present and ellaborate everything, actually this message is just to say my thankfullness to you and your very informative channel without making it complicated with the viewers. 2 hands up you!!

[@CleanFoodLiving]

[@user-wh1tk1eh8p]

you are a massive inspiration! I've never fermented until discovering your channel a few months ago and now have apple vinegar, fermented cabbage and fermented garlic and honey due you your wonderful instructions and really pleasing presentation. And, as further confirmation that cabbage is an excellent fermentation veg, I used an outer leaf of a purple cabbage to make a gluten free sourdough starter years ago. Yay nature!

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Wonderful!

[@PoonamSharma-qn8zp]

Mam I want to know one thing.we have to wash cabbage and carrot before making.

Brilliant 👏

[@mariaroqueta3135]

Would u please consider making a video on fermented/cultured yogurt or kefir from sheep, goat or cows milk? Love love love ur detailed & informative videos.✨♥️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️♥️✨

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Yes! Kefir videos coming in the spring!

[@andreagunn6895]

I’m interested in that also

[@mirta9441]

What happens if the glass weights floats up?

[@CleanFoodLiving]

@@mirta9441 It means that the glass weight is a very lightweight glass weight. So long as everything remains submerged beneath the brine, the ferment should be ok.

[@louiseswart1315]

I hope you could include water kefir and fizzy drinks made from it too. I love freshly grated ginger root in my second ferment with lemon juice.

[@kelvinapted7032]

Well done a very thorough video

[@wendywilliams9893]

Great info. Can't thank you enough

[@kidsfunland_park]

Dear Teacher, I am very grateful to you for the way you have explained the easy method of fermenting vegetables and its food benefits. Pakistan

[@ScentSational35]

Thank you SO MUCH for this Masterclass sauerkraut tutorial! My first 3 attempts were dry cabbage and they developed black mold on the top and were a mess. I totally gave up on kraut! Should I be brave enough to try again, I'll follow this method. Thank you again from AZ. PS- no one really discusses the smell of fermenting cabbage. I was fussing on my husband and dogs for the "fart" smell until I walked by the fridge one morning (stored the cabbage on top of fridge-warmest place in the house) and got a nose full- mystery solved.

[@andrewcavers1399]

Best video thanks

I started fermenting cabbage 4 years ago but always enjoy a new video and info. Thanks - I subscribed.

Your organized details and background information on how to 'read' the changes and developments is so lovely! Thank you! ( I will buy you a cup of tea soon, but for now, I am letting all ads play through - as I understand this increases your profit (?). 😊

[@CleanFoodLiving]

You're so sweet🙂

[@ghassansaad5516]

Thank you 🙏

[@CookieCreamOreo]

Thanks so much for your videos. I tried making sauerkraut yesterday, but mine didn’t release much liquid. After googling and watching a bunch of videos, I decided to add a bit of water creating a brine. I’m trying to follow your steps as much as possible. I hope it turns out well.

[@valerieescabi6104]

Thank you❤❤

[@ventureoffroading]

New to your channel. I’ve shared your videos with several of my foodie friends and a few of us are going to share the expense of the ph meter and other tools and have a get together to prepare an assortment of fermentations. Thank you for making these videos.

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Wonderful!

[@maraswen5614]

What an incredibly instructional video. I'm so happy with the amount of detail you've managed to pack in, especially your info regarding hot and humid climates - something that's always been a problem for me (Australia). Thank you so much!

Awesome just discovered you. Thx
