A French-Canadian that is all about food preservation. Charcuterie, canning, drying, and hot peppers. Star Trek in my heart and soul. Slave to Margot the Corgi.
Fruity and sweet, with a great crunch. SUPER productive.

It's a type of Aji Fantasy, a cross-breeds. You can get seeds easily online.

Oh I don't mind, it wasn't a traditional reuben. It's my personal recipe that I do at home when I want a awesome reuben.

Here, the garden nursery is going well. What kind of tomatoes do you grow?

Can't waste too much time with bacon. It's serious business.

No worries for that, I've got so much fun in a kitchen.

Because fried chicken is serious business. That, fried calamari and also snack sticks.

Started out with a pineapple, mango and habaneros fermentation in a 3% salt brine.
6 weeks fermentation.
Then with a immersion blender I mash everything together, then add one cup of rum. I then emulsify it with 50 ml of oil and about 3-5 g of xantam gum. Mix until really bubbly.

A classic one I always do is my "Sumo Crush" sauce. I wanted a sauce that had that Orange Soda taste (like some Crush Soda) and vanilla was the missing ingredient. Randomly found some Sumo mandarin and the recipe wrote itself and became an instant hit.

For me it's a big part of the fun of making fermented sauce. Why do it bland when you can make it spectacular™️.
