Early this morning after tending and playing with the dog for a bit I tuned into Anthony Bourdains: No Reservations-China program on the Travel Channel which is a kick ass show...even if he is a bit of a dick (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Bourdain), well this got my foodie mind going so I decided at 7am that would prepare our (potentially just mine..) breakfast of the 3 items blogged previously: kimchi, kombucha, and gravlax...
Everything came out really well! My only complaint is that the gravlax (salt cured salmon) was a overly salty, but that is easily traced back to me leaving it in it's brine for 1-2 days too long (most guides I've seen say 3 days or so, I went with 5). So overall everything went really well, I also decided that my kombucha is ready for the big time and I have a large jug of sweetened black tea cooling on the counter as we speak, which means sparkling kombuch (carbonated) in 2 weeks. Also we have enough gravlax to last all week if we really spread it out.
Next post: Belgium Wit review, starting a starter, and brew plans for 7/22.
