Grrrr, odd mine still doesn't have any Kahm yeast, I know I didn't add to much salt, I was very careful about that. Most likely it is just fine
I am going to dig through the crock later today , sample some of the kraut.......................................
We'll see,

Well, I never heard this before......... https://www.fermentingforfoodies.com/kahm-yeast-mold/
"Kahm yeast is just another free range yeast, but unlike sourdough yeasts, it’s not one that you should encourage. It doesn’t taste great and isn’t good for fermentation."


So, I guess I am good to go???

Yea!!!!
I have been doing red cabbage lately, I have read the read cabbage has more health benefits.
I have been talking about getting to the farmers market for carrots and ginger and just haven't done it!
Red is my favorite!

Farmer's markert, what? Our closed for the season, I have to rely on "other sources" 😞

The red color tells you there's more minerals in it, as well as anthocyanins. I prefer red cabbage when I roast with pork; it seems to have a richer flavor.

Your taste buds age, and eventually can't sense some of the more delicate nuances. Some people (like me!) start enjoying spicy foods like curries more than when they were young-- the spicy taste still gets through. Others simply eat less because they derive less enjoyment from food.

I know that when I lost my sense of taste last month because of Covid, I drank more Campbell's soups, because the inordinate amount of salt they have in them what pretty much all I could taste. Everything pretty much was like chewing on cardboard. (DH lost 10 pounds because he got no real enjoyment from food)
