I’ve had several requests regarding my opinion on blenders and juicers so I am going to repost the link here in case you missed it the first time. I am still in love with Blendtec – I find myself using it more and more as I get the hang of all it can do. And the Omega 800 can be used to make sausage! Who knew?
My latest find has been a very common gardening tool – a seedling mat! As many of you know, my home is rather cool in the winter – OK – it’s downright cold – so certain ferments are not as happy – like my dosa batter. But the seedling mat has solved all my temperature woes. It heats to about 15 or 20 degrees above ambient room temperature. And since my house is often in the low to upper 50s overnight – this helps keep my ferments happy while the rest of the house goes into deep freeze.
Just be sure to still cover your Pickl-it jars with a cloth so that the Lactic Acid Bacteria can happily multiply in the dark.
