Corn Etc. Lacto-Ferment - made Aug 9 /17

- 1/2 of a large zip-lock bag of frozen non-organic corn
- 3 slices of a 4" diameter red cabbage finely chopped
- 1 med. celery root (celeriac) shredded
- 1 large  onion diced
- 2 cloves of garlic chopped finely
- 1 large Italian zucchini chopped
- 4 Tbsp. desiccated coconut
- 1 Tbsp. of my cabbage/ celery root & pineapple mix as a starter...  I'm hoping this will be enough since I'm already using cabbage as part of the mix and I notice I've done one with about the same amount of green cabbage and no starter... We'll see...
- 1 1/2 Tbsp  sea salt

I stirred everything except the starter together, then left it out to warm up a little before adding the starter.  This made enough to fill 4 liter mason jars to a little below the shoulder.   I left them in the cupboard for 2 days after they came up to room temperature, which took about a day, so they spent a total of 3 days in the cupboard...  and then moved them to the fridge...

An Update:  This fermented VERY well, so I definitely didn't need more starter and could maybe have used none...  The cabbage also gave it a nice rosy, pink color, which is very pretty to look at...
