Cant believe it took so long for me to make sauerkraut. I though it was hard and complicated. Shows you the amount of homemade foods that were common and made regularly our generation is clueless.

Here is my advancement in 5yrs (was clueless before)

butter   raw
cheese  soft and hard   raw
yogurt  raw
sauerkraut  raw
bacon  raw
ham raw
sausage  smoked raw
decent bread  baked
bagels baked
head cheese  cooked
laundry soap too.


The sauerkraut is not at all canned so we are able to utilize the raw enzymes. First time to eat raw bacon and nice to have raw cheese and yogurt.

Learning learning learning.

Seems to take a long time If anyone goes to a Ukrainin Catholic Church corner an old baba (granny) they have sooooooooooo much knowledge!
