    I absolutely love you. I made some garlic pickles and they all went soggy. I did not cut off the blossom end. I am definitely going to make these. I have made your sauerkraut and it is amazing. I then made a red cabbage, ginger and beetroot sauerkraut. It lasted for about 2 weeks. My grandson and I put it on everything. Your amazing xxxxxx

    I would like to ask everyone if acidic foods makes you stay up all night with heartburn heart attack symptoms? I’m 53, I tried to start building up my “gut” and everything acid kills me? Anyone else? I can no longer drink lemon juice, acv, stevia which I used to love.

    Having suffered a serious mandolin cut, I HIGHLY recommend cut gloves. There not expensive (just saw some at dollar tree and bought another pair!), much less expensive than urgent care. 😉

    I really appreciate your site. You really explain everything very well and thoroughly. Other sites I’ve looked at do not describe “all” of the steps/information and I feel it could ultimately be very detrimental.
    So I appreciate your site as well as your insightful information. I have just started fermenting and the last thing I want is to make myself or any other family member sick. Thank you again! 😊

    My first try fermenting (carrots) was successful. I surprised myself….lol.
    My second try (cucumbers) failed… they looked lovely, but they went to mush even with a teabag to help keep them crisper. Now I know I left them to ferment too long.
    Thank you, Mary, for your detailed instructions. Your videos always answer any questions I have.

    I absolutely loved this video and learned a lot. I ordered some fermenting tools and can't wait to get started.. I also would like to say I really love your figurines in the background.

    I just love your videos. I'm going to make a suggestion. Don't cut off both ends of the cucumber. Only
    one, then when you slice it use the uncut end in your tool . It will save more of the cucumber.

    Thanks for another wonderful recipe tutorial, Mary. You are so right about practice making us more comfortable with the process. We store our fermenting jars in a glad tote exactly for the reason you gave. Better safe than sorry when it comes to possible overflows. LOL
    Have a blessed weekend
