yes, we found some the other day.





for Nyssa:



can they be shredded and fermented like

saurkraut? someone mentioned to me that many

of the firmer vegetables (including turnips and

radishes) can be fermented. i've not tried it

yet, though, so i have no idea how well it

might work or what it tastes like. figure if

you have extra it might be worth a try instead

of throwing it out or composting it.

Most any vegetable can be brine pickled. The ratio is 50 lbs veg to 1 lb. salt.Be sure to use canning /pickling salt for the process.
