Who's got the HOOCH?

                  Day 4-Hungry Hooch!

This morning I found my poor little sourdough starter starving!  This layer of liquid that you see is called hooch.  It smelled like heaven, so healthy and delicious....however, hooch is not good for bread making.  It needs to be poured off, otherwise you may have a bitter taste in your sourdough.  It is a result of a starter that needs to be fed, or is one that is too old.  

Here is what the Fresh Loaf Says about Hooch:

Wild Sourdough Starter!

Bubbling Sourdough Starter-Day 3

The dark spots are organic blueberries.  The yeast on the berries and on the flour helps start the fermentation.  The sugars are eaten up by the yeast, and the bubbling begins!  Bread soon to follow!

Yep, its ALIVE!!!

AM Pickle Prep

Purple Ginger Sauerkraut, Lemongrass Golden Beets, and Dill Pickles prepared all before 8:00 am!

All we need now are a few days of bubbling in The Fermentary!  A good way to tell if they are finished, is when the bubbling subsides.

Do this at home!  A good probiotic kraut will run you minimum $10.00 for a small jar at the local market.  All you need is a food processor and it takes just a few minutes a week to make your own.

Just mix up your brine while chopping and shredding, and scrunching, then jar it.

You can ferment almost anything!!!
