I have tried in the past to make kimchi with zero success. I LOVE kimchi and it's really good for your gut flora as I understand it.
Yesterday I was watching a YouTube channel I like that I haven't checked in on in a year or so and found a kimchi recipe.
The channel I wont link but searching YT should be easy to find if interested. Binging with Babish. He has a lot of fun episodes like making food from tv shows and movies. Such as pizza in a cup from the jerk, or cookie cat from Stephen universe.
He also has "basics" episodes for general cooking tips. I like his content but I'm not gonna promote him on here. Seems kinda... anyway it just doesn't feel like the right thing.
But his kimchi recipe got me to thinking I should try again. It seems simple enough. Does anyone here make their own kimchi? Or Sauerkraut in a mobile setting?
I have made my own yogurt successfully before and I think it's possible to do I'm a mobile setting provided you have enough solar. I didnt have a yogurt maker but I did have a crockpot, a half gallon Mason jar, and a candy thermometer.
You'll have to look up the temperatures if you're interested as I no longer have my notes from 10 years ago but it's pretty simple.
What I did was to fill the crockpot with water and turn it on to warm and kept a candy thermometer in there to make sure it didnt go too high and mine was a perfect temperature.
So I filled my jar with store bought milk, some sugar, fruit sometimes, and a spoonful of store bought yogurt. Follow basic yogurt making time tables based on whether you want it smooth and drinking texture or thicker.
I had been hoping to strain the whey out of mine but every single store I checked was out of stock of cheesecloth and had been for a month. If you do collect your whey you can heat it in a saucepan and it will start to form cheese curds.
Little miss muffet style homemade yogurt and cheese from a gallon of store bought milk and things you may or may not have lying around the house/van. Give it a whirl.
Ok i shared one. What kind of edible fermented foods do you grow in your van?
