Observation notes

Only took 5 days to sour nicely.

Couldn't tastes curry. Cauliflower fermenting smells HORRIFIC. The brine smells super sulphur-y. When I open the jar the whole place stinks BUT... the cauli tastes great! The kids even love it. WIN.

Made another batch. Ooh boy it STINKS and got mushy after 1 week. Tossed it.

Jan 2021

Tried again with 2.25% brine.

At 3 weeks not very sour and still STINKY. Putting in fermenting fridge at 50F and letting it go longer to see if it remedies itself.

At 5 weeks it is no longer horrific!! Not amazing but edible and Girl Child will eat it.
