Guest guest Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 I use kemp or linen bags for my sprouts and you need to soak sprouts overnight to start them off (which I think you do for trays anyway). This is an excellent time to add liquid kelp, as Sproutman says, to increase the nutrient value. So DON'T throw away your liquid kelp! I also use it in the water I dip the sprout bags in and they don't need extra rinsing, so the kelp would stay on the sprouts. > > > > I used the Liquid Kelp and I must have used too much because my sprouts all died a stinky death...so I don't use it anymore... > > Billie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 btw... off topic. But I love Norwex and it's a very complimentary product to the traditional foods way of life!!!

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2011 Report Share Posted May 14, 2011 I wasn't able to work Bloomington into my schedule yesterday. is there any other way I could get some? Gene > > and , > > Thank you so much for organizing the drop of your kimchi in Bloomington yesterday (and so close to my house - it took me maybe 3 minutes to get there!). I have most of our two buckets in the jars already and even helped myself to a small helping this afternoon and ate it over eggs this morning. It's delicious! I'm wondering if you have any idea when these batches were made. I haven't lactofermented my own veggies before, so I'm not as familiar with the process. Just reading NT, Fallon suggests it should keep for around 6 months in cold storage and with such a big batch, I just want to make sure I consume it within its beneficial period...although I know it gets better with time. Do you have any direction for me on this? Also, I needed some large food grade buckets for a different project and am wondering if that's what these 4 gallon buckets are. > > Again, thanks so much for being foodie friends sharing of your time, energy and talent. > > Sincerely, > Lindsey > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I just want to send out an appreciation to everyone, Im learning so much about how to use my Vitamix. I got it at COSTCO about a week ago, 6300. I like the cookbook it came with, Savor. BUT, I must say I like the Whole Food one so much more. (Thank you to Lee Ann who listed it under links and for sharing so much of your knowledge. Can't wait to try to make coconut butter, I love coconut. --Mari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 I feel the same way..I can't speak with experience yet though. Today will be a LONG day. I just checked my tracking number. She's on the truck for delivery " sometime before the end of business day " My problem is I have been all over the Internet reading all I could. Watching videos etc. now I have managed to really confuse myself. Everything always looks harder than it really is until you get your hands on it. Because i have been looking around I think we can get the best advice right here. > > I just want to send out an appreciation to everyone, Im learning so much about how to use my Vitamix.
