a couple of questions

June 14, 2004

Hello,

I have a few questions which I am sure some of you will be able to help

me with.

1. I have attempted to make the Ginger Carrots (Lacto fermented) from

NT book. I want to know what the outcome is supposed to taste like.

All I taste is salt. (I did use regular table salt, (I know shame,

shame on me) but couldn’t find my little shaker of Sea Salt [which I

ordered right away] and found a bag of regular salt in a bag of salt

potatoes).

Anyway, since this is my first attempt making any type of lacto

fermented vegetable, I wanted an idea of what the end result should be

like.

2. I have not yet attempted to make kefir yet as I have recently moved

and am still locating my sources (I do know where to get kefir grains).

Anyhow I have purchase the Hellios brand from the HFS which I like it

has a nice ZING to it. I found some peach kefir at the local Wegmans

(Food Store) and it was OK, but tasted like they added crushed orange

childrens vitamins to it. I then was at a Farmers Market where they had

samples of kefir to try and did not care for it at all, it tasted like

naturally flavored sour milk. This stands owner's farm may be my source

for Raw Milk, is this the flavor I should expect if I make my own

kefir? Just wondering.

Thanks a lot,

Kay

Stress definately affects RA flares The pain in your; foot is

probably " sypathetic " as in it still thinks & feels broke, probably not

though. The jaw, I don't think so.

I think stress does play a roll.

I would have your foot rechecked. I have had broken bones in my feet that they

could not pick up with a normal xray and have had to have bone scans on it.

I think once you have a fracture there it is weaker too.
