Your track record is better than mine, I had the latter right away when I tried to make pickled vegs (sauerkraut always seemed a bit too much work considering I don’t need to do it myself. well, my SO’s Mom makes lots of pickled vegs too… so my motivation isn’t great)… Well I didn’t get horrified but I definitely failed, it was several years ago and never tried again. Then came carnivore… But this ramp recipe is so simple, I may try it with something not ramp as I can’t get ramp.
I can buy great sauerkraut almost anywhere so that is no problem, thankfully. Pickles are worse as all have sugar and/or sweetener, we almost never eat it anymore. And silver onions are sugary too, ew. Still good but it would be much better without added sugar.
Me neither. Ours usually don’t have any. It’s nice and a bit surprising considering how many dishes have onions AND garlic. I don’t want garlic in things, it’s okay in a few cases but it’s too powerful and unneeded for others according to my tastes. But I had so many carnivore(-ish) days in the last years, I barely ever eat either, even when I go off…
Oh. I never particularly liked olives but it was fun here and then, I preferred the black ones (they make nice spiders on deviled eggs for Halloween - or any other day for a spider and Halloween lover like me). But they were always firm. Buttery olives… They may be nice even for me.
Possible, it definitely isn’t made traditionally in summer (but old times didn’t have fresh big cabbages in summer either I suppose).
Summer is fermented cucumber time Big cucumbers often in huge jars with bread slice on top, eaten chilled… Not everyone likes it, my SO hates it while he likes gherkins. I tolerate it but gerkins are way tastier and go with more dishes (or all alone, not like I eat them that way and very rarely in any way but this is life when one decides on carnivore-ish as their default woe ). Many people are very much into it though, it’s easy to make as well but it needs warmth… Summer is perfect for it, there is cucumber and warm/hot weather!
