Oh no! Fermenting book is sold out! I'll keep checking back. Thank ya kindly!
Have you ever thought of taking and running your rain water into sand to filter it out and have it run into your well to keep it full? Then you could use it to water your yard. You can never run out that away. Never run dry.
My family is really sensitive to all the toxins in our food, water, etc. I didnt know Thats why my stomach reacted with a form of IBS -Irritable bowel syndrome which is current day doctor speak telling us that we are sick bc of what we eat & dont eat including time in the sun. Of we do anything let it be to get our gut healthy - its the entry point for so many pathogens & toxins that if our gut were at its highest health would take care of all of it for us. The NWo demonic know how to harm the flesh human body & injure our mind & body can injure the spirit until we truly mature in the spirit in the Whole word of God we study for ourselves not believing what we are told but what we can verify & understand for ourselves. We trusted the world & its destroying us all but those taking truth & knowledge in their own hands & restoring their lives back to common sense logic & wisdom in am amazing world of perfection in cycles & processes we are not taught any more bc its too valuable & makes ones strong …this world fear healthy strong human beings of mind, body & spirit. Its backwards but God told us it would be this way. God bless everyone- and seek the truth like this wonderful video of the way we use to live much healthier than we do today. We were not supposed to be dying of all these strange painful diseases & cancers but rather old age & worst case defending our land & families from armies of invaders. People dont suddenly recognize & value life so much that war is never a possibility unless all truly loved God and we know this world hates God, his truth, & His beautiful children.
Just a minor issues guys. The volume only comes from one side of my laptop these days, including the weekend conference recording 🙏🏼❤🌹
Says the bulk salt is out of stock.
We (my partner and I) went to live in the forest in 2017, it was not easy, but now I hardly go to the nearby town to buy what I need. I don't want to move away from here 🙂
We have water from the rain, electricity from solar panels and a generator, we grow vegetables, I make salsa, I dry wild herbs and spices from the garden, I make tinctures, balms, soaps, salve, hair shampoo, washing powder, dishes etc etc... ..
I even make my own painkillers (if I need them for a headache or something) and I use turmeric, ginger and cayenne pepper.
Thanks for the knowledge you share with us.

"If you're not healthy, you can't take care of other people." Love this. You are an amazing person. Love your videos!!
I sit on my front porch with a cup of coffee and my dog. We watch the chickens scratch in the garden around the peach trees and wild birds eating at the bird feeders or from plants in our ‘bird garden’. Best way to start the day before we go tackle planting, weeding or food preservation.
What a beautiful life you live.
Yum ... Made me think about peach salsa
Great way to end the day too.
Love your info from you and Doug! God bless you.
What state ?
Doing a pH lab with my Biology students tomorrow, extracting the anthocyanin from red cabbage as pH indicator.. and we will be fermenting the other half of the cabbage!! They are so excited to start to learn all about the medicinal value of our plants and the foods we eat. Love the channel!
That's great that you are showing your students about fermentation.

I'm growing a garden, beginning to observe Sabbath, and learning from Doug and Stacy!! 😉 thanks for all you do for us!
Look at you go
Look at you go
HalleluYAH!!!!!!!!
Autumn observing the sabbath is something God told us to do to be in covenant with him and
day of rest for our bodies. But it doesn't save us.
Knowing Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior is what saves us. Anything we can DO to save ourselves won't save us. Only having FAITH in the FINISHED work of the Cross saves us.
Blessings
@@destinycoach5 Perhaps she’s Jewish and doesn’t appreciate your proselytizing
Staci, you’ve got me seated firmly aboard the “take back your health” train!
I started with the fermented pickles so now I have something fermented to eat every day. I also have a lot of things slowing down in my garden that will make a wonderful salsa. Now I know how I’m going to use all of those vegetables this weekend! I’ve increased my water intake to approximately 1 ounce per half my body weight, I get full daily doses of raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar as well as local honey and I’ve increase my exercise. Also, I have greatly decreased the amount of highly processed foods not only that I eat, but bring into the house. I’ve dropped a few pounds and feel wonderful!
Me too!
Me three
Fermented veggies provide vegan B12, as does seaweed and other algae, and mushrooms, plus if you dry mushrooms in the sun or under a reptile light it produced natural vitamin D in their skin (just like us)! B12 is made in the gut of animals we consume to get it, but a healthy alkaline human also produces B12 in our gut, at least I assume that to be true currently.
Synchronicity! I need to make salsa and was thinking about Stacy’s tomato ferment and here she is with salsa 👍🏻
Isn't she great, who doesn't love her
Me too!
Love that word. God bless
Yes! Same here
Thanks for this video 🤠
I'm on the continuous journey to regain my health at 69... feeling better than I did 20 years ago! You're exactly right about digestive health.... and I'll add that a positive and happy attitude goes a long way 😁
The salsa looks so delicious... thanks Stacy 🤗❤️
Smart ladies, you & Stacey , both!
@@patriciatinkey2677 Thanks ❤️
Love this. Also, a little testimony, I can’t eat onions anymore(sad). However, I had left over onions from another recipe. So I fermented them with your recipe. I tried them, no reaction! I’m so very happy about it. I can have onions now. Thank you!
I cant eat onions unless they are grilled.. they go off like baked beans if they're not..💥💩😵
Maybe it is the sulfur in the onions
Wow!! That's awesome!!
Good news
My body doesn't like a lot of onion either, but tolerates garlic much better. I use less onion with more garlic in my cooking.
I needed this encouragement! I just turned 71 and have always been healthy but recently went through treatment for H. pylori infection and my gut is still suffering. I have tons of little sungold tomatoes and was gifted some zucchini so am going to start with fermenting those and see how if goes :) It’s so important to take responsibility for our own health! Since retiring I ’m doing more wildcrafting and growing of medicinal herbs on my property as well as gardening and preserving food. I love spending time in Nature and my animals and grandkids are the best therapy I could ask for. Doug and Stacy and this community are my daily source of inspiration!
Look into milk kefir. The most probiotics and on the planet and so easy to make. Just add milk to the milk kefir grains and let them sit for 24-48 hours then strain. Done. Then simply repeat. 2.4 trillion CFU bacteria per 8 ounces of milk kefir and around 30+ to 70+ different strains. Better then any other fermented food on the planet. But of course all fermented foods are awesome. Fermented anything is best. Cheers.
You have encouraged me to start fermenting. I just talked to my son about wanting to feel better. I'm on my way I hope. ❤️
Maintaining my health- exercising every morning, walks with my 85 year old Mom and our little dog, making fermented foods like this wonderful salsa! Thank You Stacy! ❤️
Had NO idea how EASY it is to ferment tomatoes and salsa! THANK YOU STACY! 💕
I freeze parsley and cilantro in little packets and have it all year. I use a half sheet paper towel and put the clean and dried fresh herb in the middle and fold up. Wrap in plastic wrap and mark what it is and place in freezer bag.
That looks delicious! I’m definitely going to try it!
As a side note... as a dental professional, I can’t stress enough the importance of good oral hygiene and regular dental visits to ensure good health.
Many do not realize that gum disease and heart disease are very closely linked.
Thank you Doug and Stacy for all the great info!
As a patient, it's too expensive to go to the dentist. 💰🤑
@@MyName-zd9pe lots of vitamin c and brush before bed...and you won't need to
Just had my teeth cleaned yesterday. Thanks
@@MyName-zd9pe I agree. Part of my pre retirment plans: 1. Cataract surgery 2. Dentures..no toothaches.
As long as there's no poisons being put in people's mouths that is 😉 I can't have kidney transplant if I need one until all the amalgams and other bad stuff is taken out of my teeth
Linda here…we live in the Caribbean on a sailboat 24/7. We eat 1 meal/day and I cook 99% of those meals using tons of fresh fruits/veges and local meats/fish. I grow local oregano and eat a leaf most days. I also make teas and tinctures out of local stuff like ginger, turmeric, moringa and soursop. We also make and can our own beef and chicken broths from local sources. Cilantro is seasonal here so we make tons of salsa verde in season and can it. We have virtually no freezer space and absolute minimal refrigerator space so canning and tinctures are important. If I’m desperate I use tinctures in cooking.
My husband and I planted 4 gardens this year, so we’ve been busy, Going to try the fermented salsa, we do a lot of Sauerkraut, and I love hearing Stacy remind us that we have to take care of ourselves so we can keep on keeping on for the family ❤😊 ain’t she just so cute, Stacy is adorable.
She really is. I love our Stacy!
You are a busy bee! lol. Definitely find a day of rest or at least an hour! lol. 😁 But dont forget to take care of you first! 😁 With kids, garden, house etc...its easy to forget! I know! lol
@@Sunny-jz3dy Thank you for your sweet comment.
Having fun catching up on some of your prior videos and have just enough ripe tomatoes just picked this morning to make a batch of your salsa! I am raising 3 out of 4 of my grandchildren on my own and need to be healthy for them so I thought I would start with this tasty idea. Thanks Doug and Stacy! God bless you both. ♡♡♡
No, thank U
Thanks Stacy. I call u the queen of health because u always pass us great healthy ideas.
Keep it up 👍
If eating fermented foods makes me look as good as Stacy, then I'm in. Probably won't be able to sell the idea to the rest of the family though.
Going to try this recipe. Thank you!
Every culture historically ate something fermented with every meal. It’s so important imo.
I don't announce it anymore. I sneak things in and if there's a complaint, so be it. More for me. Usually it's unnoticeable.

I literally make my kids eat veggies and fruit regularly. We buy our meat from the local farmers. I’m trying so hard to give my boys, my husband, and myself the healthiest life possible.
@@brittanywaters5028 I sneak in more veggies and just don't say anything. A little squash in a sauce, some powdered kale in soup. No one is the wiser unless I put something obvious on the plate. Later I might let on but I'll remind them they liked the dish sooo no balking! Pickled squash doesn't look much different from pickled cucumber so that helps.
I had a back injury and was home not doing anything for about 7 months and I gained a bunch of weight I'm in the process of losing weight now,thanks for the information
Same happened to me, not a ton of weight, but to add to the stress! And it was hard to get back into the groove of things with continued muscle spasms in my back 😖 praying your recovery continues going well! I also drink green tea every day, warm (steeped in hit water, but I wait til it cools) with a spoonful of local honey. Helped my metabolism a ton, too, and also with energy because coffee has too much caffeine for me. (Getting a puppy I have to walk everyday also has helped! 😝☺️) Big hug 🧡
@@deaguirrrock so much that you're kind words and advice, God bless you and your family
Got any suggestions for the sciatic nerve damage thats left over after the back gets better? Back is better but nerve damage is still bad from my butt to my toes. 🙄
@@jackielambert7980 Many farmers that live around me get that. What most of them do is have cortisol injections targeted by MRIs so that the sciatic nerve is hit directly and they have relief for months. Good luck.
@@StoneKathryn Thanx! Just finished PT and didnt help. Seeing back surgeon next week will ask about that. 😁
I made my 1st fermented foods. I made 2 pints of sauerkraut & 2 pints of yellow beets. They are in my closet fermenting now. Thank you for being such an inspiration. Trying to be a little more self sufficient everyday from my Long Island apt. My terrace is the talk of the building 😂

I've started a new life on PEI and it's been so great learning your recipes and lifestyle. I love living off the land. I'm learning so much about new soil and how to garden. I've made my first ever garden box thanks to Doug's easy instructions. I made my first batch of fermented cucumbers from my garden. I added onions and garlic and they are delicious! I try to go out and walk on the beach every evening. Getting back to a healthy life! Many thanks from Canada.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
@@Scott_Alex Hello, I'm well thank you. And yourself?

@@Scott_Alex originally from Quebec Canada. It's nice to meet you Mr Robert.
I think I will make a pint of fermented salsa today. Too hot to can and I am bringing kitty meowzer home from surgery at the vet so this will be easier and less stressful for him and me
Borderline on topic:
I make my own salsa fresh when I need it. That said, I'm sitting here watching you do your thing while I'm making what I call forever pickles.
What I'm doing is mixing up a batch of pickling spices, this time I'm doing kosher dill, just cooking the stuff up on the stove.
After it comes to a boil, I will take it off the heat and let it cool, eventually putting it into quart mason jars and then into my refrigerator.
By now, you're probably wondering where the pickles are, right?
Here's what I do:
I either pick or buy fresh 5-in long cucumbers, cut off the ends, then cut them in four pieces lengthwise making spears, sterilize a mason jar and then put as many Spears in as will fit and fill it with the brine solution sitting in the refrigerator.
Next, I put a special contraption on the top of the jar and pull a hard vacuum on it. This pulls all the air out of the the cucumber slices replacing it with a pickling juice and after I have pulled a vacuum on it two or three times in a row and can get no more, I let it sit for half an hour or so, pop off the lid and enjoy the world's best kosher dill pickles you have ever tasted.
If I don't gobble them all down, I put the remainder in the refrigerator and they will last easily a month or so without turning into a science project.
If I want to make a bunch to save or to hand out to friends, I put a lid on the jar before I snap on the little vacuum Gizmo and that way, once the vacuum is pulled good and tight, when I turn it loose to atmospheric pressure, the lid snaps down and holds it probably forever.
I live alone, so I don't usually have lots of food, at least prepared food, sitting around, so I just keep the brine in the refrigerator and whenever I want pickles, I make up a batch. Once the brine is done and cold and in the refrigerator, making a jar of pickles takes no more than 15 minutes.
I know it's kind of crazy sounding, but give it a shot. It works like a champ.
THANK YOU for sharing! My family loves pickles.
I so appreciate you guys we're in ozark, MO . Love the Amish ways really respect how you live. That was my dream till illness struck and I live on a permanent feeding tube.

You look in great shape !! Those veggies and vitamins is doing good results ! I recently started canning , and noticed eating these kinds of foods is really helping me have more energy . It really does makes a difference ! 🙌🏼
Recently started working out again and feel like I have so much more energy. I am loving your vids about fermenting. Its not something Ive ever done and looking forward to giving it a go. Just discovered you guys not that long ago and your vids have been very informative. Thank you!
I am flooded with depressing news at every glance, so my new method to combat that is to read my Bible, watch a sermon everyday to strengthen my faith and spirit and watch an awesome video where I’m learning how to better take care of myself and be self sustainable. Y’all have the best videos and I’m working my way through them and I’m learning so much! Thank you!
I purchased your cookbook a few months back... I started making my own salad dressing! its delicious. One of these times im going to try your sourdough recipe..not that brave yet :) thanks for being an inspiration
What is the name of the cookbook please. Thank you. Carla
@@CarlaWesolek Stacy's cooking with a smile
Fermentation is a new thing for me and I’m learning so much from you guys! I did carrots, sauerkraut, cherry tomatoes/basil/garlic, a pint of garlic (heck yes!) and your tomato sauce recipe was awesome. I can’t wait to do this salsa!
Enjoy. 😊
You’ve inspired me to start fermenting more, making pickles, salsa, etc. Feeding my family lots of those great probiotics! Thanks and Keep the great content coming!
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
Thank you Stacy and Doug for all the information on animal,husbandry, farming, off grid cooking and fermenting.
Stacy have you ever made pickled corn? My paternal grandmother used to make it. Loved it. I can not find a good recipe for it. When she came down for her annual winter visit from Ohio to Florida, she would make a large batch for us and by the time she returned home, we would eat some and she would can some for us to have at a later date. For those who eat pork it is a great complimentary side dish. By choice I no longer eat pork, but it also goes well with seasoned chicken.
Stacey …. You really helped me to get my act together and get healthy and more active. It’s made a HUGE difference!! Thank you ❤️
So glad to see you using your bread knife to chop vegetables! My husband makes fun of me, but my bread knife is my favorite for cutting everything, especially pineapple!
Stacy I love these nutritional videos! You have such a wealth of knowledge about taking care of our bodies. Any videos like these on health information are welcome!
Doug and Stacy ➡️ Honestly, I had no real working knowledge of fermented foods other than some of my friends attempts at making their own kefir or kombucha. Your videos have been an eye opener for us & I plan to make some of the easy and healthy recipes you've shared - so thank you! 😊
Stacy, I just love your videos. I learn better by watching then reading. You make everything look so easy. Thank you for teaching us!
I'm on day 3 of my goal to walk 30 minutes each day this week. I made your fermented carrots today because my 5 year old son loves them!🤩 The whole family loves your recipes! Yesterday we made your leftover oatmeal muffins too. I was so excited to get my signed fermenting book in the mail! Thanks for teaching us with joy Stacy! God bless!
Femented radishes get the most beautiful pink color
So glad that you shared this today. I have some extra tomatoes and I was going to look up your fermented tomato sauce recipe even though I really wanted to make salsa...and you appeared! So happy that I get to try this. Love you guys and I learn so much!!!💜
We are just heading out of winter here in Australia. When our tomatoes start producing, I’m going to be trying some of this salsa. Thanks Stacy, you’re a gem.
Blessings Gail🇦🇺
God bless you Stacy! Love your, always, joyful, happy positive attitude! And your awesome fermenting recipes and ideas!
I got your fermented book a few days ago. I have lots of peppers and tomatoes in my garden and so I am going to make some salsa in the morning. Thanks so much. We also planted our own Elderberries (6 bushes) Learned all about them from your program as well as Sweet Potatoes. Grew them last summer and again this year. Also from watching you. I really appreciate you and Doug so much and we really love your energy and all that you are teaching us. We live in south east Arizona. In the high desert. We have been getting tons of rain this monsoon season. Lots of wonderful green to an otherwise brown area. Thanks sooooo much and may our Father in Heaven pour out His blessings out upon you and your family!!
I never tried making my own fermented foods apart from Kombucha. I got really inspired by your videos and have started with the elderberries, fermented, with honey, syrup, tincture and have dehydrated it too. I have been fermenting cabbage, beetroot, sweet potato, onions and garlic, including the Torto (?) you mentioned your grandmother used to make. I am looking forward to trying them and will let you know how they come out. I live in England and recently moved to a smaller town in Gloucestershire. I have been so inspired that I started again to dehydrate kale and Confrey infused with tahini, tamari sauce and garlic (loads of Confrey around here). I hadn't done it in ages. I guess I will be carrying on with it as I already feel healthier to be producing my own food with organic veggies and my wild berries. The next big thing is to collect the hawthorn berries and make tincture and whatever else I discover in my researching. I will def be making the salsa.Thank you a big bunch for being in this planet, you are lovely. A pleasure to watch both of you❤
I tried making sauerkraut and now I have started some carrots, those cucumbers in my garden are next. Thank you for taking the mystery out of the process and making it easy.
I'm going to start fermenting more and I'm starting as soon as my garden gets to giving me fruits and vegetables! Thanks Stacey! Blessings and Shalom 🥰
Went for a walk in our neighborhood after dinner and came across a neighbor who had 2 baskets of tomatoes, peppers, and spaghetti squash with a FREE sign on them! Picked up a few items and when I got home, here is your salsa fermenting recipe!! Coincidence?? Tomorrow I'll be fermenting - thank you so much!!!! Appreciate all the work you put into creating content for us!
Thank you Stacy~you and Doug are awesome people!💛 I can a lot and now plan to do a lot more fermentation, not just my old standbys…sauerkraut and kimchi. I’m also thinking about a raised garden as well along with some traditional gardening.
God Bless!!
I live in the city but have a few dandelions growing in my yard. Today I foraged for some washed them with salt water and had a few leaves with my meal. Didn’t even taste the bitterness but reaped the benefits. Thanks S&D for encouraging us to eat lower down on the food chain. Eat the producers (plants)
Love the video you two. I actually just made salsa last week exactly like that except I put it directly in the fridge after I made it so I'm gonna try it way very soon Stacy. Thanks for the new idea and thanks for sending my fermenting book. I absolutely love it. Still learning though on how to ferment because I've always done the water bathing lol. Much love!
Thank you for the timely reminder to do some self care- I’ve been canning and fermenting and pickling and it’s been so hot lately I’ve been doing it in the middle of the night when it’s cooler. But being up till 2 or 3 am then getting up at 7-7:30 to feed the cow I am starting to burn out a little! I appreciate your channel and your message to all of us so much❤️
I was gifted about 4 lbs of Anaheim peppers. My Dad bought farm fresh tomatoes. I had some Georgia onions and jalapenos. I made 8 pints of salsa. I did add salt, cumin and lime juice. I did waterbath can for 15 minutes. We eat lots of Salsa and Chow Chow. I had no idea it was that healthy. I have kept it on the shelf for 18 months before. I was kind of shocked it lasted that long because we eat it all the time. 🙂 Thank you for telling the nutritional value. My self care is grabbing a good book and a glass of red wine. I love being outside. I can always find something to do in the garden or yard.
Fermented things need to be in cold storage once at peak taste, texture etc
If u have none, canning or drying/salting is only choice (waterglassing)
Dairy goes quick so u can continually ferment small amts of kefir but unless u want to make small amts of other ferments u can’t do ferments (canning destroys probiotics) in large quantity
I would can huge amt of tomatoes and ferment just some salsa etc as my fridge is small
Agree!
@@toneenorman2135 it’s awful having no cold storage
Larder (cold room)
Basement
Root Cellar
Just cold enough even 8 mos a yr and the other 4 I will be eating fresh food
We have very short cool season here and no hills to dig out to make a root cellar. I would have to build a bank to dig out the cellar. Or bank up lots of dirt all over the structure I built. Like 4’ thick prob. It’s hoooot n humid here as matter of course.
If that cyclical ice age cycles around soon, it would be a relief for storage purposes lol
agreed I don't have the frig room for that much ferments . We have short growing season so canning is the way to go for me
So many experts. LMAO
Thank you for this encouraging video. Older and single, this is a new start for me after a year in hospitals and rehab. Now to get more exercise and some canning supplies. Blessings.
Getting things together to make some of this as I have the bad gut :( thank you for sharing :) I talk to my husband like we know y’all 🤣 Doug and Stacy this, Doug and Stacy that 😂 thank y’all bunches, we are working on getting some veggies to grow, also keeping the compost going ✨✨✨✨
Hello 👋 How are you doing today??
Hello Stacy and Doug. My name is Pat Bowman I'm 77 years old and I felt like crap for the last 7 years. Started watching your program and about a week ago or so I tried doing some of the fermenting. Oh my gosh what a difference. My family looks at me like I'm crazy but I'm telling you I have more energy I'm not full-blown anything but I did do the little tomatoes and the fermented sauerkraut. I eat a little everyday. I always wind up sleeping the whole day away very depressed. All of a sudden things are looking a little better. My eating habits are really quite awful LOL. We live in Pennsylvania Dutch Country need I say anymore. But I have to thank you for giving me a little bit of relief and help. God bless you and thank you. I did buy your fermenting book tried to buy the Layman salt they would not let me buy it have no idea why but I had to pay full price from another site. God bless you thank you thank you thank you
I love and greatly appreciate *all* of your videos but I'm waiting for the "This is Stacey's Work-Out Routine, to Become Buff, Like Her" video to come out. 🤪 But seriously.
Edit to say: to take back my health, I'm starting back on my work-out routine. I was hoping for tips from Stacey. Perhaps what she does for her work-out routine. I would genuinely love if she made a video on it!
P.S. I hadn't watched this video, in its entirety, prior to my commenting. (I'm sorry 😔)
You didn't watch the laundry video? 🤣
@@OFFGRIDwithDOUGSTACY lol no. I'll have to check it out!
I’m sure it’s all the off grid laundry lol
That hand chopper looks awesome! I've never made a fermented salsa before but have canned cooked salsa often. I will give this a try, thank you for your wonderful inspiration!
I just came in from gathering a few tomatoes, would like to know if I can use Sea salt or Himalayan salt to make this, is all I have on hand at the moment…thanks for this, I love learning from you Stacy.
Yes, just don't use ionized table salt.
Yes
Yes, both are the best. They have minerals your body needs and taste wonderful
We are in the process of buying our own little farm/homestead. We plan to get chickens & garden. We have several fruit trees, herbs and other plants from prior owners. May even get some cows eventually. We have a lot to learn! For now, I'm taking a morning walk on the land and waiting for Spring! 😊
I love being in my garden on my acreage. Right now I am harvesting peas, beans, potatoes, carrots, etc and am eating a bounty of fresh produce. Tastes great, and feels good in the stomach. My tomatoes are not yet ready as we also had a very cool and wet June, followed by 2 months of scorching sun. A little while longer and I will be making salsa as well ( I add corn to and black beans to mine as well). Jummmm! Thanks Stacy for your passion and simplifying the ferment process for us👍🏻👍🏻🥰🥰
I have discovered Stacey and Doug this week and I am really happy I did! I have to say I just LOVE STACEY!
Thank you for sharing so generously your knowledge with us! And for your bright and bubbly énergie!
Keep up the good work! Xx
I started processing tomato sauce to water bath can and I was able to make a batch of salsa before my water bath came to a boil. Can't wait to taste this in 2 days. Thanks Stacy for all your videos.
I did this!! I am addicted!! I wish I had done this sooner. I live in an apartment so I do not have a garden, but was gifted some tomatoes that I could not eat all of and saw this. Next year, I will know what to do with the tomatoes I am gifted. Thank you thank you stacey!
I have been watching your videos on and off for a few years and I’ve never seen a more loving and encouraging video! Thank you! I have certainly been struggling but the Lord has blessed me with some answers to my health and I am beginning to have more energy and breaking some negative cycles! I am super excited to make this salsa tomorrow!
Thanks you're inspiring me to get out to pick from my garden tonight before barn chores. To make up some salsa! I am 65 and still holding full time job. Love my home time. But I am getting tired sooner now days. So your such an inspiration to me! Thank you!
Mmmm so good! I did this last week, turned out so yummy. I just fried up some peppers, onions, and potatos from our garden, and then added onion, tomato, and pepper ferment on top as a relish, WOW! THE TASTE IS AMAZING!! I did add some cilantro and lime to my ferment, thanks, Stacy!
Thank you Stacy. I've been following you guys a little bit. I really enjoy your videos. I woke up this morning. So sad. Feeling so awful not knowing what to do with my tomatoes cuz I hate caning tomatoes so this video helped so much. Truly appreciated and helping me to try and get my health back
Spending more time in nature for sure and becoming more active. Nothing like being out among the trees 🌳 ♥️
I have so many cherry tomatoes, onions and peppers from my garden, I think I'm going to try this! My tummy says thanks.
Just had a salad with fermented peppers from garden....Amazing!!! Love you Stacy and Doug....thank you !!! Ooohhh and have 6 qts of tomatoes fermenting....♡
This is my first year landscaping, starting seeds indoors, and getting a head start with an organized gardening system! Im doing an edible intercropped garden system in several different beds at our four-plex. I also have 18-month-old twins, so I won't be sitting around! My goal is to increase our yield, eat more fresh veggies, and eat a lot more leafy greens! I want to try growing greens and cilantro year-round, indoors this year! I will definitely be trying this method on my salsa! I absolutely love fresh salsa, and pico de Gallo, but all my salsa recipes are water bath and cooking veggies. I like chunkier and fresher salsas, so I'm super excited to try this! Thanks for sharing!
I just fermented my first salsa today, cooked kebasa in the sun oven, and play with the dog in the yard! I also have a new herb bed that I just got started and have yet to finish mulching.
I have spent 8 months grieving the loss of my two sisters and my health has taken a huge hit, no energy, my got up and go, got up and left me in nov 2021 again in Jan2022 so lately I feel a urge to get going tending to my garden, to my health and get healthy again so starting today it begins, I will start making more fermented things to put into the food storage and in me too, go to the gym, and ride my bike also spend more time with my animals and start taking back my life !!! God is good always and God is always good! Thank you for being an inspiration to everyones health and life styles!
Thank you once again for sharing your knowledge, Stacy. This is one of the processes I include when making tomato relish. Spring is almost here in Australia. I’m hoping our last recent fall of snow in our area will be the last cold blast for this season. Blessings to you and Doug 🙏🏼💗✌️
We started a garden this year. Next year we're planting a medicinal herb garden and enlarging our regular garden. Will start fermenting next year. For years, I have eaten grass fed meat and barely eat processed foods or go to fast food places. It's convincing the other half about eating less processed foods because it's easier for him to eat. lol All that you and Doug are teaching is a blessing and I know I appreciate it.
I just made my 1st batch. I always canned mine for year n did salsa by heat. This way it's WOW with flavor has more amazing taste just can't wait till 3 days. Just realizing all the nutrients I killed. Now I'm on the upper trail to more better health by fermentating. Love it! Thank you Stacy for your encouragement n inspiration. 🙏 to you both!
I am going to an Amish farm for a basket of good tomatoes to make some of your fermented salsa! Then some canning of pasta/pizza sauce. When my cabbage get full grown, sauerkraut is on the menu. Thanks for the inspiration. If only we lived closer, I could learn so much more. Thanks and good on ya.
I have a huge pear tree, and for the first time I jarred pear preserves. My grandchildren loved it. We even had preserves on vanilla ice cream. It’s now February 17, 2023 and Doug and Stacy talked me into growing more of our food. I can’t wait until Spring.
Just had a knee replacement. Going to spend some time walking and going barefoot in my yard and garden. Feels so good and refreshing.
I have made this salsa several times now, and it is amazing! I have passed this information on for others to enjoy. Thanks for the best recipe out there....
I recently had back surgery. I am so out if shape. I started walking, gardening, mild exercise, eating fermented foods, cooking and eating organics with five ingredients or less. I even make my own mulch now
Just left a career spanning 35+ yrs. Stepping into a very different lifestyle and perspective! Thanks for all the great info!
I have recently started making my way through the book Nourishing Traditions. The fermented recipes are wonderful...so far, I've done ketchup, mustard, garlic, beets, and two types of sauerkraut. Loving this simple salsa idea! Thanks!
That book was given me 20-ish years ago. I had put it in the attic, not interested. Tidying the attic books, I opened the book planning to throw it out--- got hooked. Began lacto-fermentation. I had been fermenting for decades---flour (bread), fruit (wine), grains (ale). My first fermented cabbage was so aromatic, so perfumed, I could hardly wait for it to be ready to eat!
I am working on adding your fermented items to my diet. I made the fermentation cabbage and we love it!! I am going to try this recipe too. Thank you for your teaching us how to eat healthy.
I make fermented salsa and fermented sauerkraut all the time. We love it. I have started fermenting a lot of veggies and they are AMAZING!
I'm tired of heating up my kitchen to can fruits and vegetables. I went all out canning and dehydrating last year and still have quite a bit of it on my pantry shelves. So, this year I am still doing some dehydrating, but I am doing more lacto-fermentation. The only thing I have fermented in the past is some hot sauce... turned out great. I also fermented some biquinho peppers a couple years ago and they turned out great. So, I am expanding my repertoire and fermenting just about everything. I am not off grid, so I just keep everything in my refrigerator. Your videos are very encouraging.
I'm going to make some homemade salsa and give some to my son who has a birthday coming up. We all love salsa and will enjoy the health benefits making it like this. Thank you !
I have a running jar of Pico that i start with the first tomatoes of the season, and keep going till all of the tomatoes are done. It's the best, full of flavor and constantly changing with what I harvest. I haven't tried fermenting tomatoes yet, but it's now on my list.
I made this with homegrown black cherry and sun sugar tomatoes, peppers, onion, garlic, it is so good, one of the best things I have ever made.
Just started learning to ferment and have 3 different types of lids. Bought tomatoes today and I'm looking forward to making this salsa.
I need to be a bit more faithful with exercise and now we're eating much better (homemade). Back to gardening on Saturday. These are my go tos for better health.
My adult son and I have done a sauerkraut ferment and 2 different mixed vegetables lacto ferments. Beets and green tomatoes with some garlic, onion and a variety of mixed spices. Of course the beets gave everything a reddish-purple color. Very pretty and everything tasty. Tossed in a couple of rinsed grape leaves to help keep things crisp and the natural tannins help keep things crisp
We are going to take back our HEALTH ♥️
I have always loved gardening, must say this year has been the biggest challenge. After the 11 inches of rain, my pepper plants died. With all the high temps the bids on my tomatoes dried up. With the temps in the 80s things are waking up. Thanks for the fermenting lesson, good reminder to purchase your book! Are you out I can't find it.
Thank you Stacy! I'm now fermenting and I'm taking back my health!
I have increase salads n greens to daily n sometimes every meal. I also am adding organic raw Kimchi to my salads. Making your salas dressing. No more buying it. I had to do this for my health as just like you said i have gut problems. I am failing to get my walks in daily as I am studying for school n working 50 hrs a week. But on the weekends i am outside cutting grass n wood for the winter. Thanks for all that you do. Love you Doug and Stacy.
I made 12 jars of salsa a couple days ago. Learned a valuable lesson about the small mouth jars! Needless to say I had salsa in places it shouldn't have been! Did my 4th jar of ginger carrots this morning. Am sooo grateful for all you do and always learn so much from both you and Doug. Very sorry about Rambo. Hope Doug is doing all right. Blessings!
Stacy, you are the best. My starting to take better care of myself begins with watching YOU! 👀
