In my latest News from Mary’s Nest, I answer a question many viewers have asked me. Why do I sometimes use a canning lid for my ferments, and other times I use a coffee filter as a lid? I talk about the best uses for both of these fermentation covers in my conversational video.

The importance of seasonal eating
I also share a favorite book of mine titled The 3-Season Diet. Watch my YouTube video to learn why our food supply is actually based on three seasons not four, and how our stomachs are primed to eat seasonally for our best health.
More Fermenting Recipe Videos
If you’re new to fermentation, try making sauerkraut since it’s one of the easiest fermenting recipes to get started on. I also have a variety of fermented carrot recipes for you to try too.
You can ferment your favorite condiments too, including ketchup, mustard, and hot sauce.
