Today is nearing the end of the third week of the Probiotic Food Challenge. How is everyone doing? What is everyone doing? Let’s use this post to share our successes, our failures, to brag, ask questions or to vent if need be.
I’ve been doing really well and I am so glad I started this challenge. It forces me to actually do what I have be meaning to do but just never got around to. I’ve been meaning to ferment lots of different food items and I’ve been lazy. This challenge has been the motivating force to get me in gear.
If you have been following my blog posts, you know that I’ve already posted several recipes involving fermented foods. Here they are:
- Coconut Water Kefir with a video.
- Homemade Yogurt with a video.
- Fermented Beet Kvass with a video.
- Homemade Sauerkraut with a video.
- Whey and Yogurt Cheese with a video.
I’ve also posted several articles about probiotics and cultured foods. Here they are:
- 8 Reasons to Add Probiotic Foods To Your Diet. This popular post explains why you need to eat cultured foods.
- Getting Started with Cultured Foods. This is a guest post from Roxanne of Cultures for Health.
- 5 Reasons to Make Sourdough Your Only Bread. This is a very popular post. I guess people really love sourdough bread!
