Carrot, Rhubarb & Celery root (celeriac) Lacto-Ferment - Made Apr. 12/22

 

- 1/2 a large zip-lock bag of frozen cucumber chopped

- 1 leek (both white & green parts) chopped

- 1 large clove of garlic minced

- approx. 1 1/2 cups of frozen "wild" apples chopped

- 5 med. carrots grated
- approx. 2 cups of chopped frozen rhubarb

- 1 med/large celery root (celeriac) grated

- 4 leaves of green cabbage finely chopped

- approx. 1 1/2 cups of frozen chopped celery leaves from my garden

- 2 Tbsp Himalayan pink salt

I mixed everything together; except the cabbage, in my large glass bowl,  I mashed it down best I could, then I let it sit for awhile to warm, before adding the cabbage. After mixing the cabbage in well, I transferred it to 3 liter mason jars, firmly packed to the shoulder.  They only spent 2 1/2 days in front of a rad covered by a cardboard box.  At this point I could see they were fermenting well, so I moved them to the fridge to stabilize and be eaten.
