Please let us know if you are still alive & kicking after eating the steamed rice and kimchee this weekend. I'm definitely going to try the recipe this weekend, seems like a great way to empty some of my ziplock bags of dried peppers. > The original recipe from Dave (which I don't have, or I would just repost) was > pretty much as follows: > > 1 pint dried chiles > 1 pint peeled garlic > 1 tsp salt > white vinegar to cover > > I took a quart Mason jar and filled it half way with garlic, then stuffed it to > full with dried chiles. I used kosher salt (always do), so I doubled the > amount. I poured white vinegar over it and it has been sitting for several > weeks in a cool place. I opened it after about three weeks to add a little > more vinegar and there was some spewage -- we've got a little fermentation > going on, I think. > > From everything I've heard, it sounds like the garlic is safe to eat. I will > try it with some steamd rice and kimchee this weekend. > > Matt ________________________________________________________________ Keep unwanted email out.
