Salted fermented tomatos are the best. Hello from Russia!

@primrozie Год назад

So, I've never fermented before. Today is the day. I canned Ruth Ann's (Zimmerman's Homestead) coleslaw a few days ago and today I'm canning Ms Lori's (Whippoorwill Hollar's) grandma's sauerkraut. Thanks so much !

@donnastormer9652 Год назад

It is important to pierce or split the tomatoes so that the brine can penetrate into the interior. Otherwise, you might have a bad ferment. could you do a follow up so that we know how they turned out because you didn’t pierce themthem?

@leannshort6078 2 года назад

This was one of the best videos I’ve come across explaining the process of fermenting, including the attention to detail on the lid and how it should be loose and the spillover. That is a cute tart! Thank you so much! I just did my first batch of cherry tomatoes and basil from my garden today! 🥰

@jeannejett2299 4 года назад

It might as well look pretty 😀. Yes Ma'am, it looks pretty. Excellent video. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I learned a lot from your process. Now I want to find a recipe for cooking with fermented tomatoes. My first batch will look just like yours. Excellent job. More videos like this would be great.

Hi! Do you think that the poking holes sped up the fermentation process?

@OffGridInvestor Год назад

Probably should've put hot water in to dissolve the salt. Generally they mix up a salt mix of a set ratio, then pour that in to KEEP salt consistent throughout, not more salty on the bottom. I generally pack then pour about 3/4 then tap it and spin it to get all the bubbles out. Or better still, pour it as you're adding the vegetables. Some people have a way of packing it at the end so that the vegetables jam under the lip where the jar narrows to the top. A common one is to use a bit of outer cabbage leaf in the top to keep everything down. I have a bunch of coffee mugs with the handles cut off with a tile cutting disc (angle grinder). Everyone suggests the ziploc bag trick but I see too many cases where it's not done right or done too close to the top with not enough water and it screws up one way or another. The chinese often get a small glass and compress their stuff and then the glass is held down by screwing the lid on. They've got this thing about pressing the hell out of their cabbage.

This looks great - I can't wait to try it. Now I understand the need for so many crocks in the 'old days'. Kinda like (but better) our current plastic everythings. I sure wish there was organic produce available locally where I live. I can eat anything from my garden but my tomatoes have given up the ghost and I really want to try your recipe.

@marymiller4155 3 года назад

Vickie, I didn’t see you use the weights or baggie to weigh it down. When do I do that? And do I remove when fermenting complete? I also got some burpee type lids for on jars got fermenting with little hole in silicon that only opens when gas needs out. Only in quart size though. Has anyone tried them? I have not tried fermenting anything yet. But bought some supplies going forward. I do have half gallon jars but no plastic lids for them. Will metal cause a problem with the fermentation? Thanks for you channel. Just found it and subscribed today. 😊

My current goal in life is to one year grow enough tomatoes that I also have to struggle to find a use for them all.

@ReapingTheHarvest 4 месяца назад

Oh I'm sure you can achieve that goal! I always think I'm not going to get enough tomatoes but then end up with more than I can handle lol

@mustwereallydothis 4 месяца назад

@@ReapingTheHarvest I hope you're right. I live in the far north so it's usually quite challenging to grow a large amount of tomatoes. Spring comes a few days earlier and fall a bit later almost every year these days, so maybe this year will be the one. We also planted a downright silly amount for the two of us this spring.

@hyanotha 3 года назад

Do you have a cellar or a basement to put these in? My basement is always around 60 degrees. It looks like you don't have much room to ferment all your vegetables. You can have a fruit cellar dug and then you'd have much more room and more time to let them ferment. (and forget about them fermenting).

@VickiesCountryHome 3 года назад

I don’t have a basement, but my extended pantry does a pretty good job of keeping an even temperature.

Interesting. I've made sauerkraut, but never thought of doing this with tomatoes. Does it end up tasting vinegary or does it taste salty? I'm really curious about this.

@nancyfahey7518 2 года назад

The main reason for fermenting is preservation, second is nutrition, third is taste. And it tastes wonderful. She should have got thru instructions on yeast and mold but there are plenty of videos out there.

@BoyTsamba Год назад

Newbie question. How do you consume them? Fermenting vegetables is not a tradition in my part of the world but im interested to learn because of the pro biotics.

@beebeej1 Год назад

Just eat them...do not cook them because it will lose the probiotic fermenting is so good.

@chikyuskincare4675 2 года назад

Thank you for the wonderful video! Thrilled to have come across your channel. I do have a question. If I left my quart of fermented tomatoes on the shelf ie., about 8 months, do I eventually have to remove the glass weight and tighten the jar? If not, won't the liquid eventually evaporate due to the lid not being tightened?

@dianeamaral3611 Год назад

Is the water cold?

@VickiesCountryHome Год назад

Yes, it is out of the tap. Just make sure you do not use chlorinated water.

@ashleyhudson3754 10 месяцев назад

Did you pierce the tomatoes before adding them to the brine?

@bonniek6039 2 года назад

After your tomatoes have fermented for 3-4 weeks and you put them in the fridge, can you close the lid ight OR do you still have to keep it loose for any potential gas creation? Thanks for the wonderful video!

@harryfarber6435 2 года назад

@Bonnie K, chilling it down does slow the fermentation almost to a standstill but I’ve done this a few times and I feel a little bit more comfortable leaving the lid just a touch loose. I hope that helps

@zhippidydoodah 4 года назад

Mine looked beautiful, bright and clear until today :( They have floating flakes, it looks like the kahm yeast, but how can I be sure? They don't smell off, the aroma is very fresh smelling, a little tangy, but there are a lot of those flakes on top, on the tomatoes, all through the brine. The brine also seems to have increased in volume.

@VickiesCountryHome 4 года назад

Those flakes/scum are normal. I just skim them off. They are not harmful. And yes, it seems to increase in volume. I am thinking that is from the salt drawing out moisture.

@zhippidydoodah 4 года назад

@@VickiesCountryHome I rinsed them all off with cold water and put them into a new container with a 3% salt. They are very tasty. I do prefer the ones I missed poking. While they are soft, the poked ones are a little too mush for my preference. I will definitely make more if my tomatoes ripen, not many left in the garden. ;) oh and the garlic I added - yummmm ^_^
