I am so excited to see a wonderful giveaway today from Cultures of Health hosted by one of my favorite blogs, Nourished Kitchen.  It is a total kit to start fermenting vegetables at home.  My entire family needs to eat more fermented foods at home and it has been a trial to convince my husband to give many of them a try.  My son however loves real sauerkraut and I think he’d adore some of the recipes on Nourished Kitchen for fermented foods.

The perfect recipe to try and entice my reluctant hubby would be Nourished Kitchen’s recipe for Pickled Jalepeños.  My husband loves jalepeños, and even though he’s from Maryland he embraced many of our often considered strange Texan quirks of putting jalepenos on everything from breakfast to dessert.

We also do a fair amount of Tex Mex, Spanish and Mexican cooking and these Pickled Jalepeños would be an excellent addition to my recipes.

If I win this kit I will be sure to share my new found discoveries with you all as i try out various recipes on Nourished Kitchen’s website and also experiment with my own.  I remember a tasty looking spicy carrot pickle that Alton Brown made on Good Eats however that was not fermented.  It would be great to give that one a try with some healthful probiotics in the mix.
