Intentionally rotting food

[SLADE]

Decided to get some crocks for fermenting some veggies as we have a lot and only want to can so much.
We decided to start small with 3- 5 gallon crocks.

Beyond my skill set.
We ordered them and it took 2 days to get here.
They're made in Ohio.

I make my own yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kombucha. I have a 2 liter fermenting crock with a lid and moat. In the past I made sauerkraut in mason jars. The batch of sauerkraut I’m fermenting now has green cabbage, red cabbage, onions, shredded carrots in it. I put a dash of 100% beet juice in it because I didn’t have any beets to shred into it. I just started it yesterday so it will be about a month or more until it’s done.

That where I going to get mine from.
On another garden site many moons ago, a dear lady had a thread about sauerkraut.
I said never made it, she gentle, but firmly told me, once you make your own you will never go back.
Said I could use a plastic five gallon bucket, but a true crock was best.
The wife likes the easy of opening a jar & I have not mastered growing cabbage yet.

It's not very hard. But I've seen two methods used where we live.

We really want to try fermented tomato's.

I’ve got some Tex-Mex kimchi going in the basement. I made it one year with chipotle instead of regular chiles because it was all I had in hand, and that was that!

They say heat is good for you, but I stay away from things that will not absorbed in over 20 feet of digestive tract!
