It gets mushy and tastes awful or in the case of the fruit and salsa it tastes like alcohol.

I noticed fuzzy white mold on my pickles today, first time that's ever happened - how exactly do you go about skimming it off?

abbiroads · 09-14-2011, 07:12 PM

I just scoop out what I can with a spoon.

Blue-EyedLady · 09-28-2011, 03:57 PM

Ok, so I made sauerkraut. I've never eaten sauerkraut before, so how do I know if it's done? Also, it turns out that DH thinks it's awful, and DS is afraid of it.

Can I freeze portions of it and retain the probiotic properties? There's way more than I'll eat in a month, I'm sure.

Oh, and suggestions for meals that you would put sauerkraut with would be helpful...

Do you eat meat? I do sausage and sauerkraut, the other day we had ribs and sauerkraut.

Funny this thread should pop up today! About to start some dilly carrots with the last dill of the season and some kraut (cabbage was on sale).

I have some pickles that were out for 3 weeks. A few jars don't smell good. They still taste very salty. Should we eat them or throw them out?

Blue-EyedLady · 10-17-2011, 10:02 PM

We do eat meat, but pretty much just chicken.

Maybe try adding some to soup then? Also on sandwiches would be good, I mix it in when I make tuna sandwiches.

If you are into ethnic foods you could put them in a Pierogi.

NeshamaMama · 10-19-2011, 01:07 PM

My DH has added kraut to sauteed vegetables (carrots, sweet turnips, celery, and swiss chard

) and diced chicken on multiple occasions and it's always very good! It melds well with the other flavors (and you don't have to add extra salt

) so it's good esp. if you're not a fan of the kraut flavor (which I am not while pregnant

).

Blue-EyedLady · 10-19-2011, 04:36 PM

We just had tuna salad yesterday, and I poured a little dilly juice on it.

I didn't even think about the kraut!
