The results

So the seitan was a bit rubbery. And a little too salty. But I'm working on ways to remedy this. The next time I make it I am going to try adding a couple of things. Some of the recipes I've found call for tomato paste or even flour. I'm hoping by experimenting with some of these alternatives I can control the outcome a bit better.

My Kombucha brew is nearly done. I waited the 7 days originally specified and got a little skim on the top, not nearly done. Gotta wait a little longer. I have a couple people interested in this stuff already so if you are an interested party that has not yet contacted me, let me know and I will get a batch out to ya. While I know there are folks out there selling the culture and making money on the product, I'm a big proponent of both freeware as well as socialism. I believe that if I make something and it takes very little time and energy for me to do so, the product should be something I share freely. Aside from the amount of material that my family and I need to survive, I don't need to hoard or charge for the simple results of my work. I enjoy gardening and cooking so why not show off my talents by sharing the extra?

If I give something to someone, they will be inclined to give to someone else and eventually it will come back to me.
