When life gives you bittermelon, what do you do? It would seem the answer to this question doesn’t involve fermentation. For this is my third attempt at fermenting with bittermelon. The first attempt was a bittermelon wine. I juiced the melons with lemons. Usually, when I drink fresh bittermelon juice,…
From time-to-time, there are moments in life that seem to flow by with ease. Currently, I’m soaking in the bath reflecting on this weekend and I feel in perfect alignment with myself. Pensacola has a monthly gallery night through the summer. The main streets are closed and popup tents display…
From left to right; a pineapple ginger wine (bubbling moderately after one month), a watermelon, scuppernong, pineapple wine (bubbling strongly after one month), and a simple ginger cider that I started a couple days ago (bubbling ferociously). There are always different ferments bubbling away in my tiny Pensacola apartment. Most…
Hey friend! Oofda! I am so behind on my baking endeavors, or at least in documenting them. After a long day of croissant-ing I think I will remember all these tests or bombass ideas but that’s wildly optimistic. Over the years I have tried to get better at taking progress…
Well, well, well… It seems I’ve forgotten to blog through the summer. Rest assured, I have not stopped fermenting. If anything, I’ve fermented even more. As spring turned to summer, I began dipping my toes in alcohol production. No, I’m not squishing grapes with my toes to make wine, if…
Winter has finally come to a close here in Florida and our early year crops are starting to appear. One of our neighboring counties is known for their strawberries and the markets are filled with them. I’m a little embarrassed to say but I bought four baskets of strawberries. I…
Finally, my pantry no longer smells like a foot. I love kraut but man is it stinky when it’s fermenting! These four jars have been going somewhere between 7-10 days. I pulled one of the kraut a few days ago. Overall, the spicy kraut has great flavor. Only a little…
Well, I’ve officially went bonkers. My fridge is filling with end of season vegetables (cabbage, beets, carrots) and I’ve decided to pickle them. For the carrots, I decided to turn them into ribbons. For Christmas, Jamie gave me a Japanese mandolin. The blade is so sharp I didn’t even want…
It’s officially springtime in Pensacola! The Palafox market was bright green with spring lettuce and leafy greens. Normally, I try to get to the market when it opens, to try and see everything the vendors have. This morning, I arrived when they opened and one of the vendors had storage…
Parents hacking your blog! Wendy, being the idea person in the relationship, thought that making maple syrup would be fun this year. Being the last week of March, it was late for Minnesota, but we got started. I, being more action oriented, stopped by Fleet Farm to buy the necessary…
