Guest Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 So, I finished a jar of Bubbie's kraut and there is a ton of liquid left. Not knowing anything about fermenting foods, but not wanting to waste the liquid, I did a search and saw that it could work to put new veggies in a clean jar and pour the liquid over. Anyone have any experience who might be able to tell me a little more like where to keep it and for how long? Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmary Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yes! You can reuse the brine, it makes it even better! I would follow instructions from here, see the note at the end where he says to just poor the leftover brine over top: http://www.wildfermentation.com/making-sauerkraut-2/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yay! Thank you, MissMary. Can't wait to have my own with ginger and citrus added, but without the big dollar sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
look_alive Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yes! My grandmother did this a lot with the leftover brine from pickle jars. She'd fill the jar with fresh carrots, cukes and okra, and called it "refrigerator pickles". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
