- Fermentation of anything and everything is possible using just some salt.Fermentation is a process by which you leave your vegetables or fruits to develop beneficial bacteria and microorganisms at room temperature. This is done by putting the veggies in a glass jar; covered in brine, or water that comes out of them after salting them. Then you leave them in a cool dark place for anywhere from 3 days to a week. You should taste for the right amount of tanginess as per your liking and decide the duration of fermentation accordingly. After the fermented veggies are sour to your liking, leave it in the refrigerator while you eat it everyday. A well fermented vegetable will almost never go bad in the refrigerator. There are people who ferment them for even 6 months. But, I think that it would be too sour for my taste. During this process the natural bacteria grow by consuming the carbohydrates from the food and producing lactic acid which makes them sour. The Salt curbs the growth of the harmful bacteria and thus provides a conducive environment for the good bacteria. A complex colony of beneficial bacteria is formed inside the fermented foods. This depends on the vegetable that you are fermenting, the natural bacteria present in the environment depending of the region, the room temperature, and various other known and unknown factors. In the rare cases where this may develop a mold, I am sharing a resource of all the information you may require about it. I am also sharing information about how wonderful this food is and why it is generating recognition of being a super-food. Probiotic sauerkraut and fermented salsa are the most versatile and can be eaten with everything. Hope you make you own ferments and it helps maintain a healthy lifestyle to fight corona. Good luck!

Wow!!! Thank you so much for sharing. Love your strong positive energy. Just getting into fermentation.and I'm having a blast w different vegetables. So much fun watching you make different vegs. I especially loved the green onion on the round bread(naan?). I had not thought of that. I'm Hispanic and will be fermenting green onions and serving them the way you did for my tacos. Wish I could give 1000👍👍👍👍. Saving this video to my favorites and sharing. Hope you ad your friends and family Are healthy and well during this neverending pandemic. And keep sneaking those ferments to your kids. I do the same with my nephews.
So happy to read your feedback. Thanks
I have done fermented drinks like Kombucha, Water Kefir, Milk Kefir etc. for years, and being accused by my family of not eating enough vegetables, I finally thought of eating fermented ones. Thank you so much for the copious insights you offered in this video, your ideas and suggestions have me all psyched up! 👌 👍
Thank you
Thank you for this! I found you from looking into fermented recipes. I have known about the benefits of probiotics for many years, even before the corona, but I never knew how simple it could be to make them ourselves. Probiotics can be so expensive, but fermenting isn't expensive at all.
Thank you for your video.
True
Really fast and quick work well explained and truly Mumbai quickness tks
Mumbai quickness 😆
Thank you so much. You're a very fast talker. I couldn't blink or else I would miss writing something down.
Sorry!
Thank you! I'm new to fermenting but loving it! I've done cucumbers and jalapenos. I have an abundance of garlic so I'm trying that now 🙂. Blessings and stay well!
Jalapenos are delicious. I can't find them here. And Garlic is super healthy when fermented.
Garlic is transformation of cow meat. It's tamo gun, spoils subtle body. Don't use it.
I wanted to ferment vegetables (except cabbage/cauliflower) for so long but did not know if I could do it. You are an inspiration.
Nice sharing Sonal ur wonderful fermented foods
Thank you so much
Thank you
Very educational..thank you for sharing 😊
That's it water and salt!!! So easy
I truly enjoyed your video. I'm looking forward to seeing more. Thank you ❤
Thank you so much!
I've even put some of my fermented carrot brine into my sauerkraut since my purple cabbage wasn't weeping as much as I liked at jarring time.
Your kraut ingredients look good.
Sounds great!
Amazing explanation and yet simple, this will help me to kick start my journey with fermented food
Thank you so much this is the simplest and great video I could see on this topic .
I'm so glad!
Hey Sonal,thank you for this..I fermented tomato and they came out so tasty..bcz of gallbladder removal m trying to eat healthy..going to cook some of ur keto recipes as well.. thank you so much
So happy to hear that you tried it and liked it.
Very good information👍🏽
Thank you! I also tried beet kvass which is basically fermented beet.
That's great! I buy that regularly.
@@SonalsFood you are so good at fermenting veggies why do you buy kvass? Why not make them at home? If I can do it, it’s easy peasy for you!😄
Excellent! No more wasted vegetables, starting today. Let’s see how it goes. BTW did you had loosing hair issue? Your hair looks wonderful! Take care🙏🏻🥰
I do loose hair and a lot. It comes in waves some moths are fine. And it looks good as I adjust them to make them look fuller on camera ;)
Very simple & short video more details.. thanks 👍
Glad you liked it
Awesome, awesome
Thank you! Cheers!
Great
Wow mam
Just now found ur channel.
What I was searching for such a channel for last 3months.i am in paleo diet.
Great 👍
Hi! Im from Philippines 💗 love you're channel so muchy! ☺ i hope that you can make more recipe for coconut flour 💖
Thanks. I will try.
Hi Sonal your ideas are great,but please use Indian items with names with which we are familiar. Dhanyawad.
Sure. But all the items I have used are Indian. Some words cannot be replaced unfortunately like fermentation etc.
Excellent Information!
Love it
Thank you for sharing your healthy recipes!!
Thank you
Very Nice 👍
Great sonal
Please emphasize the black mold part because, carelessness may harm.
Tell me about the traditional achar, is it as good as the one you are preparing
I am not sure if it is just as good. Not too much research happens on Indian foods, so it is hard to tell. But I know that they are probiotic.
Tq yaa its really very simple
Please mam tell me is it compulsory to keep in glass jar or we can keep in plastic jar.
Do reply please 🙏
Thank you very much sonal ,
After 3/4 days green beans fermented where I have to store ? In the fridge or outside?
Yes after fermentation put everything in the fridge.
@@SonalsFood For how much time, I mean until how many days will it not get spoil??? Please reply!
Sounds good👍😋
Thank you 😋
I have Corona, 6 days in. I went 2 days without fever's, thought it was over. Today, the worst day yet. Haven't been able to eat much, trying to get supplements down in a shake but I can't get milk products down so that too isn't working. Can't taste or smell anything.
I am so sorry to hear that. I hope you are taking hot liquids(water) every couple of hours with turmeric and ginger. Also smell eucalyptus oil by putting a few drops in a hankie. Eat half a love from time to time. Best wishes. Keep me updated once you get well.
@@SonalsFood
Thank you for the advice on adding Tumeric & ginger to hot water. I've been drinking green tea & chick bullion. I'll order eucalyptus oil. Thank you.
@@reneemills-mistretta790 ❤️❤️
Can i ferment outer portion of water melon and use himalayan pink salt? Thanks.
Yes I have done that once and people do that.
Sonali, I'm going to come and visit you one of these days... next winter, most likely... just to give you a big hug 😄
Hahaha... 😅
@@SonalsFood Unfortunately it looks like I will not be able to travel to India this winter 🙁... Hopefully next year!!
😂👍
You've got a New fan from Nepal Ma'am 🕉️
Thank you💕
WoW! looking stunning.
Thank You
@@SonalsFood Thank you for sharing your knowledge and sweet presence.
WONDERFUL VIDEO SONAL, THANKS A LOT ❤❤❤
Thank you too
Once fermentation completed Is it necessary to put vegetables under brine water or not?
Hope you Answer this
No. Whatever brine is in the jar is fine. Put it in the refrigerator
mam can we use this fermented vegetable water or not?
Yes you can. I add it to my soup in the end. Just remember that it has salt.
Thnxx ..rainy season me fermented food kha sakte hain?
Yes.
Do you use ordinary tap water (to make brine using Himalayan salt) Because I’ve always wanted to do fermentation for health reason but have not due to people informing one must use filtered or alkaline water etc. Please, is ordinary tap water perfectly fine to use? Also, do you know if a little apple cider vinegar (ACV) put into the brine would help with the fermentation bubbling? You mentioned sugar, can you add sugar and salt together to dampen the sourness of fermentation? Can you eat the white mould? Thank you.
1. I use filtered water.
2. Some sugar is used in some recipes. Salt and sugar can be used together.
3.you can ferment with salt alone too.
Very interesting and nice way to use vegetables. I have a question, how did you make the fermented chilli paste/sauce?
I have a recipe on the channle pls check that out.
SUPER****
How to eat all these? I mean can it be used as side dish? Or simply eating these all alone?
Mostly as a side dish. U can put it on meats. If you are making a roll with meats yous can stuff sauerkraut. I add mine to soups just before serving too.
Thank you for this video! Very good information! Take care!💖👍🌞😊
Thank you. You too.
Can I just ferment carrots, radish, turnip together after finely slicing them and using only brine (no added spices), just like we make Sauerkraut? If yes, how long that would last if I keep it in the fridge after it has been made? Thank you!
You can ferment them with salt and once fermented it will last in the refrigerator for years.
I am new subscriber. Very informative video. 👏
So we keep jar closed for 6-7 day without opening in between to check fermentation.?
You can taste it after a day or two to check for the level of sour that you like and decided the fermentation period accordingly.
Very nice videos ! Thank you 😀 can you use pink himilayin salt for the brind ?
Yes absolutely
Thank you for your video I never knew you could do salsa how cool!!!
I love sauerkraut and I have some cucumber I'd like to do and this video just popped up at right time.
Flavourful fermenting fights coronavirus!!!! Would you use them same measurement of brine for cucumber 🥒? And can you add anything to them,was that spring onion?
You can even do cucumber without brine. It will leave its own water and ferment only for a day.
Hi,watching your video for the first time.want to try some.You are a bit fast but good👍
Yes, I have been accused of that. I just don’t want the video to drag too long and I have a lot of information to give.
You rock! And thank you 🤗
Hi, can you please share where you purchased your glass weights that you show at 9.45 min?
It's the bottom of a glass candlestick holder. You can use any glass object.
@@SonalsFood thanks for responding:)
That looked like a mini paint muller to me and was looking for something it.
Pl do share the recipe of kefir that's fermented milk and also how to ferment garlic.
My kefir culture died when I was travelling. So I stopped. But I have fermented garlic...maybe someday I will share.
Can we ferment all vegetables after cooked it..because i don't want to eat it raw
No fermentation cannot be done in cooked vegetables. Cooking will kill all the beneficial bacteria that helps in fermentation.
Hi
Thank you.
Have you used lactobacillus for fermentation any other time ?
Can we use lactobacillus for Lemon & Lime fermentation ?
I have fermented lemon and lime just like sauerkraut. I am not sure what the mix of bacteria is.
@@SonalsFood
Thank you for your reply.
In another video you made about Yoghurt.
Can you please let me know, where you purchased the Yoghurt starter tablets.
I searched on Amazon India & Flipkart, those where for Vegan Milk, not for Desi Cow Milk.
If you can let me know, the one for starter culture tablets, it would be helpful.
👍
After how many days Or hours microbiome/bacteria are formed?
3 days on an average. You can taste it four sourness too.
Doesn't this fermented veggies increase our salt intake..is it safe for our health
It doesn't because you eat the salt level that would be in any other food not more than that. It's not a salty food. Also you can add less salt and eat less.
@@SonalsFood I will give it a try. Thank you
Thank you for the video. I made a nimbu achar pickle in oil yeserday, but my pickle smells like raw spices. I wanted to know if the smell changes after few months? Does this pickle ferment too?
I think it does. And Nimboo especially gets healthier as it ages.
@@SonalsFood Thanks alot. it did changed
Too fast spoken words , I have difficulty with her accent and there is no transcription available. How to follow ?
Use speed X.5 nd use ur brain bro😂
I am new to Fermentation food, Wondering how good bacteria will form when we add so much salt? I heard that salt will kill good bacteria from GUT when eat so much salt.
Salt controls the harmful bacteria, not the good one.
Wao so easy, thanks, can i know the knife details u r using
Thank you. It's a santoku knife. That’s the shape. It was branded one but bought it 17 years ago and unfortunately don’t remember the brand .
where to keep in apartment don't know about air quality, i am in US ...so do we have to put AC on at what temp both cooling /heating what happens when we switch off and closed home when we are out!
In US the house temperature is good enough. Keep it in a comparatively cool room.
Madam, What to do with brine? Can we drink? If yes then how to drink. Pls guide us.
You can drink it as it is. I add it to my soup in the end after I stop cooking it.
if i add salt in water without weighing. Should the salty water be light medium or heavy salty in test?
is it wise eating all the fruits and vegetables fermented
how about drinking leftover salty water?
thanks.
Also can i ferment watermelons outer vegetable peel? thanks.
It should be like sea water.
I dont know if all fruits can be fermented. They can turn sour too quickly.
You can drink the ater or add it to a drink.
Outer skins can be fermented.
real thing starts from 3.38 min
What's your opinion about Kefir?
I think when it is fermented enough it is a great health drink even on keto. Provided that it is sour.
Can i eat after 3 months also
yes, But it needs to be in the refrigerator
Formanted food should be eaten by pregnant women?
Yes. As far as I know, it is safe to be eaten. But if you aren't sure don't start now.
I read the probiotics that we eat in the form of food daily, all the good bacteria present in them are destroyed in the stomach only. So, they do not reach the intestines at all. Please share your thoughts on this
I am not an expert but I have read the few strains of bacteria survive stomach acid. So eating a variety is a good idea. Especially sauerkraut and kimchi.
I'm confused
Sorry to hear that. So basically salt everything to stop bad bacteria. The brine should be like sea water. Add any firm veggies, non starchy. Ferment for a couple of days at room temperature and then the fridge.
@@SonalsFood Thank you! Maybe I was thinking it was more complicated than it is.
which glass bottle are u using?
Any glass bottles are fine
Is se badiya tazza sabzi khao
I😀😀😀😂😂
Ye taza sabji se jyada fayde mand hai.
Wow, very nice and informative video, I wanted to know that can we ferment more than one vegetables in a single Jar.
Yes, you can
thank you
I landed up eating my salsa so I couldn’t share it here 😂
Do we not need to dissolve the salt in water before adding it to carrots at 6:20?
It will dissolve eventually. But ypu can do that.
Mam my q ...is that which strains are present in different combinations... How we know the microbiom in cabbage sauerkraut
You can look up this information online. There is a slight difference because of temperature, season and location etc
@@SonalsFood thankx a lot for responce...as a senior ....pls tell me which ingredient is Super rich in terms of microbiome only one word...will follow blindly
The veggies should be fully submerged in the water right ?
Yes. In the brine.
That's lovely video Sonal Mam with a lot of information ...it will be helpful for me in my leaky gut problem... love your very simple style of explanation 😊 always be healthy and joyous mam 💐
One question ...Which is most preferred or most healthy probiotics according to you mam ?😊
Eating a variety is good as each ferment has a different combination of cultures. Kimchi, sauerkraut and kefir are considered superiors. But I think that is because more research is done in them and are more popular.
what type of water needed , spring , filter , store bought
Filtered water is good enough
Please answer, can I use rock salt instead of sea salt ?
Yes you can.
MADAM IS FERMENTED FOOD GOOD FOR DIBETIC PATIENTS???????????
Yes absolutely
@@SonalsFood SO Let me ask you again, Say For Breakfast, lunch & Dinner -- Can I put the millets, vegetables into fermentation at night & HAVE next day.? Do I need to add yeast for this process as time duration of fermentation is less?
@@SonalsFood Thanks for the reply.
@@radharanient no yeast for vegetables or millets required. For millets add a dry red chilli. I hear it helps in fermentation. Although I haven't fermented millets
U have resemblance with young jaya bachan n Kiara advani..😊
Thank you 😊
Do we have to throw away water after fermentation
No you can drink it or add it to soup
Can we keep with refrigerator
Yes after fermentation
My wife adds mustard powder to brine to "pickle"carrots/onions etc.to have oil less pickles.I guess mustard aids fermentation process. Try and opine.
Yes absolutely and it's delicious. People make Kanji too with Mustard and ferment. The more variety you have the better.
Take into account that many countries are imposing loadshedding before presenting lengthy and useless recipes
Please trust people to take the responsibility of making intelligent decisions for themselves about which videos they can watch.
Will using hot water in brine affect the fermentation
Yes. Please use cool or slightly warm water.
@@SonalsFood I used very hot water and salt and palm jaggery and add very little coconut vinegar....
Will it ferment...or will it just pickle?
can these prebiotic cure urine infection...
These things are all connected so it will build your immunity ivertime
But for immediate problem please see a doctor.
I have a doubt !!!!
Do eating lot of fermented food causes stomach cancer
No. But you should start with little and then increase it as per your tolerance.
Eating meat especially cow meat definitely brings cancer
Can we use just normal salt instead of sea salt?
Yes you can, if you don't have any other.
I have been advised table salt has a chemical which can have a nega effect on the fermenting process?

Yes
