Homemade Kimchi

 

I've made an attempt to turn my largest* homegrown cabbage into kimchi. Until I know my attempt has worked I am going to refrain from sharing the specifics; for now just photos. Fingers crossed! 


*Over six pounds!

A short history of the Mason Jar

Check out this short and enjoyable read from Sunday's New York Times Magazine. It's about the history of the Mason Jar! The line "...home canning has gained traction among a certain class of urban locavores..." made me chuckle. I didn't realize that Oliver and I had made it to the ranks of "a certain class" of people! Regardless of class, I'm always happy to find people spreading the word about eating local (be it urban, suburban or rural).
