My last refill was early April. This sweet miso is so good. It isn't super salty, so you can put it on all kinds of things.

My latest refreshing creation: Firmematé
Hits the spot on those 30+′C dog days.
It will be a pumpkin pickle and a fennel ferment - out of the fridge and on the bench for using.
Meanwhile, the probiotic gut shot tastes AMAZING so I have decanted it, capped it, and it will go into the fridge for daily shots. The veg will be roasted with some unfermented veg for use during the week. (https://www.feastingathome.com/gut-shot/)
I have put some pumpkin to ferment with some chillies, garlic, ginger and onion. It is supposedly a 4 day ferment, but I suspect it might be longer. (https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2015/feb/23/fermenting-pickling-vegetables-tom-hunt-residency)
The #QuinceVinegarTake2 is still doing its thing, and will be for a couple of weeks yet. I strained the quince out about a week ago, so it is at that stage. (I have learnt that a quince is a slow ferment.)
The big decision for today is....
Which pickle or ferment will we use on, in or with our meals today?
Life of a pickler/fermentista.
#Introduction
I've been on Mastodon for quite some time now, but under another name. I started a new account because I decided to take a step back from world news, collapse, climate change, hunger, war, fascism and inequality.
In short less doom and gloom and a little bit of positive small scale projects that might also inspire or help others.
With this account I'll focus more on my day to day life, the things I do and make.
Of course I sometime still will post concerning subjects that provoke my rage or frustration. Sorry, it's not all moonshine and roses.
Having said that, I've a broad range of subjects that have my interest, so hopefully something useful will stick with you.
From my profile text:

Fighting depression and #sadness by doing some positive and small scale things that might help people.

I made a thing!
After some tinkering, lots of frustration, plenty of debugging and tons of help from the devs of #mbin, i present to you my new, federated forum about all things #fermentation!
https://ferment.site
You can also interact with it from most other #Fediverse apps, like your favourite #lemmy instance, or even the one you are reading this on!
Check out our first dedicated communities for @kimchi, @vinegar or just go to the meta community @meta to see what's bubbling!
See you there!
@stfn @m0bi and everyone else, I'd be grateful for sharing :)

Bottling the Granddad's Bluff saison. First beer this newly caught culture has made and it's tasting pretty good, judgement reserved until it's fully carbed, but I'm thinking it's gonna be good.
Hey #plant friends,
Does anyone have any knowledge of juniper species that are good for making gin/jenever that can be grown in hot summers (occasionally 100+F/ 37+C), very long growing season (March to November) and mild winters (no less than 20F / -7C and mostly above freezing throughout)?
The traditional European variety is too sensitive for our summers.
Please boost for visibility.

#fermentation : the process of undergoing an effervescent change, as by the action of yeast

Word of The Hour's Annual Survey @ https://wordofthehour.org/r/form
A pilot study found that acidification of raw whole milk (with citric acid) to a pH of 4.1-4.2 for 6 hours resulted in complete inactivation of the bird flu (H5N1) virus.
There was an indication that the effectiveness of inactivation may be dependent on fat content of the milk.
These pH levels are within the range resulting from fermentation (4.0-4.5).
@LifeTimeCooking Oh very nice. Similar to a mango powder perhaps. Dehydrating the ferment and making powder is taking tasty food storage to another level. #fermentation, #rhubarb, #growyourown.
@LifeTimeCooking Thank you for the photograph of the fermented purslane to see the size of the bits. What does fermented purslane remind you of? I can’t imagine the flavors! #fermentation, #purslane, #growyourown.
@LifeTimeCooking Is there a recipe in the Tamil Cuisine? I am looking in the Samantha Paar classics book? #tamilnadu, #fermentation, #piripiri.
@tclaesson @LifeTimeCooking Happy to help with fermented hot sauces to save the planet. #fermentation, #sambal, #Rempah, #hotchilisauce, #piripiri.
@LifeTimeCooking Home made fermented hot sauce is so tasty. I am glad you are pleased. The complex flavors are a concentrated kitchen treasure. We also dilute during cooking with this variety of concentrated ferment. It’s inspiring what the ingredients have become from the fermentation. You are on top of the world. #fermentation, #garlic, #ginger, #turmeric, #hotchilisauce, #solarpunk, #growyourown.
@LifeTimeCooking Cooking with a fermented ingredient adds umami flavor to my tastes. #Fermentation.
