Hi Marjory...I made a 3 liter bottle of Fire Cider 14 months ago before I strained it...As needed..I would pour off a small amount and then add honey to the small bottle... I put the solids through my juicer and was surprised at how much liquid I got..1 and 1/4 cups extra liquid. I then took the pulp that came out the side of the juicer and dried it out in the sun for two days... I then put the dried pulp into my food processor and made it into a spice...I added Pink Himalayan Salt into the mix as a preservative. I need to invest in a coffee grinder to make it into a finer powder. This seasoning can be used on frying meat...cauliflower...soups..stews.......barbeque.....very tasty. I also put the apples from my home made Apple Cider Vinegar through my juicer..... Regards from Sunny South Africa🌞y
The fire cider or ( master tonic) recipe I have is , ginger, garlic, turmeric, white onion, jalapeno , horseradish , cinnamon stick . And I think I'll add some cloves as well.
Place garlic heads in a paper bag and shake it for a while, hard shaking. then the garlic is totally clear of dry skin. Martha Steward showed it on tv. I tried it and it works. much faster than cutting as we generally do it.
Marjory, I find a fast and easy way to peel garlic (whole bulb at a time), is to take 2 bowls - or 2 pots that are the same size, put the garlic bulb in one and place the other on top to make an enclosed space and SHAKE!!!! Your family may think you are trying out for the rhythm section in a loud band but you are really peeling garlic. Give it a try!
Peel garlic? Simple....lay cloves down, lay that new chefs knife flat on top, BAM on the knife with the heel of your hand Presto, garlic is seperated from the peel. Love you Marjorie
If you put the garlic in the jar with the lid and shake it like crazy it will be ready to chop without going through the shell removal process. Try it, its amazing!
I find that the best way to prep garlic is to smash it with the flat side of a large knife with your hand. Usually, the garlic comes right out of the paper with that method.
Love this! I've been making this after watching your video... it's great. Easy way to peel Garlic: Just take a clove and put your knife blade over it flat (sideways) then put your weight on the blade - thus crushing the clove. It will come right out of the peel or easy to remove from the peel. Also crushing the garlic will free the good stuff in it within 5 minutes or so... :)
I did my first batch with things in chunks. Then, for batch #2, I put the chunks (from batch #1) in the blender and added more vinegar then let that batch "brew" for a month. Seems to be just as potent as the first batch.
been making a version of this for years now. I also use onions in it; cut chunks that your blender can handle, blend with the vinegar and it is a lot less cutting! Just be careful with the horse radish!!!! I have ruined 2 blenders already, it is really tough! I must try rosemary and juniper with it next batch, sounds really good! I make a bout a gallon at a time :)
I am amazed behind you is a powerful blender or you could use a food processor and bung the lot in and process it jobs done as you only want the liquid in the end the finner you smash it the better
Janice - just get one knife Marjory it's a Global for chopping all your veg - no I don't work for them! I live in France Marjory so don't know whether I can get Juniper berries or horseradish - that will be an exercise. Looking forward to tasting this stuff!!
Would there be any reason you couldn't run all these things through a juicer instead? Seems like it would be more economical....probably get more goodness extracted from the vegetables. What do you think?
After the allicin is created when the garlic is chopped it breaks down into other compounds. Does the ingredient(s) in the infusion act as a preservative? That is why it is suggested not to use pill/capsule form for the antimicrobial properties.
Easy way to peel garlic.. 2 metal saucepans....shake vigorously for 12 seconds or so... All peeled!! Any reason you do not blend all the ingredients - can pack more into that jar!! :)
If you can get a small piece of a horseradish root, you can plant it and it will grow, when I dig mine up and cut the tops off, I just throw them in the ground and the grow. 😉
Can a 6yo drink this ? if i mix the already prepared fire cider with abit of apple cider juice? So 1 tbsp of each mixed together🍎. I want to strengthen my child's immune system with natural food & 🌿 herbs.
You Don't have to cut your garlic , Just Lay it on the cutting board and flatten it out with a spatula then toss it in a food processor for one minute " Done "

Just came across someone who dehydrated the filtered ingredients for 8 hrs and made a fire cider powdered spice . Nice --- no waste.
Was told to dehydrate the leavings and make a spice powder out of it
I subscribed just because of your " blessing" the final product, energetics comment.

Curl your fingers when cutting so you don't cut a finger. Never cut with the free hand flat. GREAT VIDEO...will use this recipe. I LOVE GARLIC!!

Easy garlic peel, put your garlic in a Mason jar, put a lid on it & shake vigorously, the husk will come right off.
Indeed - you're correct! That works super well! _Ruth

How much of the mature liquid should I add to drinks, sauces, or dressings?
@@dear9530 as much as you want
We love our fire cider!!

Hi Vickee, you're right! That does work really well! _Ruth
Remove garlic peel by hitting with meat tenderizer tool or knife handle. Pops off real nice

Hi Melissa, yes that is the conclusion I've come to. Well, the flat side of a knife on a chopping board.

Oh, that's great! Awesome job!
Thanks for that information, I did the same thing ,it is blending now and I did taste it it does seem stronger
IMO it is better to macerate the ingredients together in a processor as this give more surface area for the vinegar and causes a better extraction.
been making a version of this for years now. I also use onions in it; cut chunks that your blender can handle, blend with the vinegar and it is a lot less cutting!

How long does that gallon last for you?
Great video - love your non use of electric appliances!
I'm leery of all things plastic - esp with acid that leaches chemicals out of it.

to peel i use a rubber cylander mafe for that-easy peasy
Great video!! I will add this to my winter prep for 2017!! Thanks
oh wow! love you, thank-you kindly Mataji 🙇🙌👋😊👍😇💞😺😻💞👐🌍💞👐💞🌈
Question: do you keep the jars tightly sealed ?
I just made a batch and I wouldn't want it to blow up !💥
😃
You have to open the jar for a couple minutes every 2 days to let the gases escape.
Called burping the jar
Are metal lids ok to use for a mixture with vinegar?
Thanks for your time and another video of wonderful insights! I'll be making this very soon. Happy Thanksgiving!
wow, u got enough stuff, seems 2 me u should be making a gallon of it instead, sister, lol- ty 4 all y'all post- tc n Father Bless!

Put the dry herbs into an electric chopper or blender with vinegar and make a lot of surface area..

All peeled!!

great video thank you
this is awesome
Did you ever do the vinegar video? I can't seem to find one.
Can you eat the veggies in the tonic? As pickles?
can i substitute fresh horseradish for white turnip or red radish? i m from Perú , south america and i cannot find horseradish... thanks
lizet balarezo I have made mine without horseradish and it works great!

If you can get your child to take it... And I wouldn't put too much chilli in it then. Suggest to dissolve it into a glass of water.
Do you have to refrigerate this?
Is there anything you would suggest as a replacement for juniper berries? We don't have them available in this area.
Ginger, is it possible for you to source them online?
Hibiscus would be nice! These are great ideas...thanks for sharing. I'll have to try this....
You Don't have to cut your garlic , Just Lay it on the cutting board and flatten it out with a spatula then toss it in a food processor for one minute " Done "
how much would you drink at a time?
I believe she said about a Tablespoon or so...
eyeYQ2 I thought she may have mentioned it. I should have watched it again. it's in my favorites now. thanks
I drink a shot glass everyday
I believe birds don't have taste buds. I could be wrong though.
Easy peel garlic put all the cloves in a glass container and shake.
your plastic lids do not have rubber rings, they will leak
A bigger knife is key to easy chopping...and much safer. :-)
Put garlic in a metal bowl. Cover the bowl with another metal bowl and Shake, Shake, Shake!
Less chatting nd go right to the point 😣😣😣😣😣😣
Are you married?
