A fantastic Rhubarb recipe Karen. How are you, Nick and Rose?

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

Hi David nice to see you. We are good thank you. Still got to repair our greenhouse and fence from the storm, how are you doing? 😊

[@davidthescottishvegan]

@@rosesallotmentadventures9365 I am doing fine. Price increases are going to be getting worse due to this war in Ukraine so growing our own is as important as ever.

Very interesting Karen! I've never used Vinegar in any of my recipes...

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

Do you use any other acid?

@@trollforge I've used those in the past too. This recipe called for the vinegar and the result is delicious.

New to your videos and loving them! Can I inquire about that lovely chopping board with the built in silver bowl? Is it something hand made or purchased? I would absolutely love to find one. Thank you

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

Hi Moon Flower it's great to have you here, thank you for joining us 🥰 The cutting board is great, isn't it?! I got it about 25 years ago in Trago Mills, Cornwall. It's such a great design 💚

[@themoorlandsallotment7159]

Ooh, I've been wondering what to do with the mountains of rhubarb I have in the allotment and home garden. Only so may crumbles I can eat.

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

I hear you there! I must say my favourite is rhubarb gin but this champagne is a very close second. It certainly goes down quicker! We make rhubarb chutney and also a rhubarbeque sauce which is nice

[@trollforge]

Karen, Since you have comments turned off on the Boursin cheese video, and I have a question, would you know, is your Creme Fresh, the same thing we call sour cream, over here?

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

Ugh thank you for letting me know. That's KZbins doing but I'm not sure why they would do that. It doesn't go against anything and Rose is barely in it. To answer your question, crème fraîche is different to sour cream. A quick Google says it's available as crème fraîche over there, although you an make your own. It's a type of cultured thick, heavy cream.

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

Just double checked the boursin video, it looks like commenting is available

@@rosesallotmentadventures9365 Ok, I will have to look for it... Thanks!

Sorry not been around supporting lately - been in a coma - all is explained in my live. And just to say all videos now posted are not in real time - things previously filmed and edited.

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that. I will catch up with your happenings... I hope you are recovering well ❤️

[@jamesjones-yn1sv]

why do you add vinegar to the must

[@LydiaDeHep]

It creates an environment that is ideal for acid-loving bacteria, thus speeding up the fermentation time. It also helps to prevent unwanted contamination in a ferment that is going to be stored.

[@grahamarnold8433]

For the purpose for the video only I'll have another glass lol Karen, any excuse 🤪🥂

[@rosesallotmentadventures9365]

Hahaha well a terrible thing happened... I drank it then realised I needed another glass to take a photo for the thumbnail 🙈🤣
