    No, it’s not something I eat often - I maybe buy a 200g pack 2-3 times a year. So I’ll have it 4 times in a week then not for months.

    I’ve looked at how it’s done though, because I’m always curious about food and cooking! Stumbling block for me is the idea that you have to buy the cultured bacteria! If it worked like Kimchi or Sourdough that might be different!

    I’ve got no idea where one goes to buy such things!

    I too have just looked into making it. It doesn't sound too complicated and I think my local health food store(s) might have the starter. However, I tried making sauerkraut and it didn't turn out...I kind of 'winged' it though.

    My attempt at replicating the cod dish we had Saturday nightin a restaurant. Carrot mirepoix cooked in leftover sauce from a caribbean seafood boil mixed with a tin of borlotti beans, pan fried hake with gremolata. A side of air fried courgette. Missing the pretty parsley oil of the restaurant dish.

    Made Greek chicken pasta with Banza chickpea pasta. It was pretty good; I feel like it could be better. Further experimentation is needed!

    Snapping turtle burger aka “Turgler”
    Side of maple brown sugar beans

    Turtle meat so tender, tasty, and super super lean! More lean then turkey, venison, grass fed beef

    Thai inspired salad of grapefruit and pineapple with toasted coconut and almonds, raw and fried shallots, mint and coriander to start. Main of Vietnamese pancakes with sous vide chicken. This time I tried a recipe where you fill the pancakes at the table but next time will return to conventional method which cooks the filling in the pancake because I like the beansprouts a bit wilted. The pancakes look dark because some recipes call beer instead of sparkling water in the batter and we only had a dark ale in the house. Lightly pickled carrot on the side.
