Fermenting CURTIDO - A Spicy Cabbage Ferment With TONS Of Beginner Fermenting Tips

You can find the recipe we used here: theculturedfoo...
Another great ferment recipe that my sister, Tiffany, and I made when I went to visit my sisters in Hawaii! While we were making this fermented curtido we got to chat about a lot of tips for beginners to fermenting. This is a delicious El Salvadorian cabbage ferment with peppers and oregano! Unusual and delicious spicy ferment.

I love the reality and honesty of you and your channel. Sincerely, thank you. 😊

[@FermentedHomestead]

Thank you! I’m so happy you enjoy! 💜

[@janetchisolm-richard6225]

Thanks for all of the tips.

[@patriciathompson9826]

This really looks good. I may try my hand. Thank you

Hi Anna & Tiffany 👋

[@JanicePhillips]

Finally found your Curtido recipe...I've never put lime in mine. I just use cabbage, onions, carrots, oregano, and fermented red pepper flakes. Well...and salt, of course. I do about eight heads at a time and am lucky to make it last 8 weeks. Which means me and hub put away a quart a week. lol

[@FermentedHomestead]

The lime adds a little something, next level. Ya I usually have a cup of something fermented a day 😂 that doesn’t count fermented drinks

[@JanicePhillips]

@@FermentedHomestead haha. Well, you just talked me into a pineapple-coconut kombucha I bottled about a week ago! ;-) Got a blueberry-strawberry batch on it's second and fixin to do a batch of peach. mmm...I can't pick a fav! They're all so darn good!

[@JanicePhillips]

@@FermentedHomestead I may try a small batch with the penos and lime and see how we like it. Last time I did "plain" sauerkraut, I added the red pepper flakes and it was SOOO good! We love some spice!

[@daveandellenbartlett8725]

Just found this! I’m so excited to try it😮

[@pairsay]

Looks delicious , I love curtido and have to agree with you there is something about oregano I don't like lol

[@FermentedHomestead]

It’s really good! Once I was expecting oregano it was good! I’m going to try without and see if it’s even better

[@helenswanson1403]

I leave mine to rest after salting it for at least 12 hours before I jar it

[@FermentedHomestead]

Interesting! I’ll have to try that sometime!

[@sharylfuller9277]

Recipe link does not work

[@FermentedHomestead]

I checked it out and it looks like they’ve rebranded and likely cut the recipe. I’ll keep hunting for an alternative

[@dman2547]

I think you are supposed to use Mexican oregano. That may be why the off flavor.

[@TheOldSwedesFarm]

This looks great! I love Kim Che and this looks like something I'd love. Thanks for sharing!

[@FermentedHomestead]

That is on my list of videos to make next year 💜

[@GrowingLittleCountryhomestead]

Man I haven’t seen a notification from you in a long time…? And wow 7k subs congratulations Anna. I saw you in a bunch of other channels at the HOA this year.

[@FermentedHomestead]

I was just noticing that with some channels I usually watch too! I wonder what’s up with that but oh well, KZbin is weird like that I guess. Thank you! HOA was so much fun!

[@gwhln]

Stacy rocks, love watching her. Enjoyed your video. Just found you.

[@gkseeton]

I like Sandro Katz’s books on fermentation.

[@FermentedHomestead]

Me too! He also has some great videos on KZbin

[@kathyarvin8155]

I haven’t made ferments before. Sounds delicious. Thanks

[@FermentedHomestead]

It’s super tasty

[@freedomhomesteadky]

I’m making this! Sounds SO good!

[@FermentedHomestead]

Yay! It’s delicious 😋

[@beverlyheinritz5294]

When I was making my suarkruat it occurred to me curdito, which I had made several times, (the recipe called for softening the cabbage with boiling water and adding vinegar) is supposed to be a fermented food. I put in those search terms and found it. My first quart of fermented curdito has been on the counter for three days. I am so excited to try it.

[@teekotrain6845]

Just made some to go with my pupusas and salsa. It's super delicious and cuts that richness perfectly! It tastes SO good and it's an incredibly simple and intuitive recipe. 10/ 10 would recommend!

[@FermentedHomestead]

Yum! It is pretty tasty!!

[@lynnfarley7859]

Can't wait till I can make this!

[@FermentedHomestead]

Let me know how you like it!! 💜

[@jeanettegilder1616]

I like Italian seasoning but not the spices separately. IDK

What is this Marco Polo you speak of?

[@lindawheeler3479]

Glad to see you together

[@tammysarrazin7078]

lol heat is good hugssssssss

[@FermentedHomestead]

It was only warm the last day and a half I was there 😂

[@tammysarrazin7078]

@@FermentedHomestead i meant in the ferment lol

[@lindahernandez8693]

Was it Italian oregano or Mexican oregano? Mexican oregano gives it a whole different taste.

[@FermentedHomestead]

I used Italian because I couldn’t find Mexican, I still haven’t found it 😬 but I have heard it’s a totally different taste and I want to start growing it

[@rosezingleman5007]

Curtido has been in my new food queue for awhile, right before that fermented pineapple drink. Hey, you’re in Hawaii so how about the pineapple drink?

[@FermentedHomestead]

I do have a tepache video already 💜 It won’t let me past the link but if you search my channel for tepache it will pop up

[@ElkEars]

Can you make more salsa that I can get from Little Farm Store?

[@FermentedHomestead]

That is on the list 😃 I’m just waiting for tomato season so it’s as flavorful as the last batch and not watered down disappointment
