Calling all fermenting mamas!
Does anyone here ferment?
Quick question: is there anything I can use in my fermenting besides whey? |
Re: Calling all ferementing mamas!
Yeah, I'm starting to get really into fermenting- I just grew my own scoby from a bottle of kombucha, planning on actually drinking the next batch, haha. (The first batch was WAY too sour!) I also add whey to my homemade mayo and ketchup, and have been known to make sourdough, though right now, I'm gluten free. I don't think they have sourdough gluten free bread- though I should perhaps check into it. :)
I also culture yogurt (and make yogurt cheese), and am interested in kefir and beer and wine too. Oh, and kimchee and pickles. :) |

Re: Calling all fermenting mamas!
yes, it is my understanding that lemon juice and whey are fairly interchangable but I've not used lemon juice, only whey.
We make homemade kefir, yogurt, & kombucha. I've made my own fermented salsa a few times as well as fermented pickles. :yum I cannot eat pickles made in vinegar, yuck. I have been meaning to try and catch some wild yeast in a sourdough starter--I've got the rye and everything, just haven't done it yet. When we eat grains, we don't necessarily ferment them, but we do soak them overnight in a kefir or yogurt mixture. :yum |

As you know, we do sugar-water kefir! :D
But I'm wanting to know more! :listen |

I do kombucha and I am going to be doing water kefir soon! :woohoo ( :hug) I also hope to do sourdough soon but I just feel a little stretched at the moment. I have used lemon juice to soak my grains. :yes |

A great book on fermentation is Wild Fermentation by Sandor Katz.

You could use a little Apple cider vinegar (or kombucha) to help ferment - works very well. |
Re: Calling all ferementing mamas!
rye has gluten in it too-- though you bring up a good point- I find that I have less issues with sprouted wheat breads than I do with gluten free nonsprouted grains... :think

Re: Calling all ferementing mamas!
You ladies amaze me. I enjoy learning from you!

Re: Calling all ferementing mamas!
The sprouting of the grains does make them easier to digest which is why the fermenting/sprouting is suggested.

Re: Calling all ferementing mamas!
Yeah, I know. But that doesn't mean I do it all the time. :shifty
