Sauerkraut is at once best sandwich topping and best hot dog topping.

Yeah it is.

I've been making a lot if steaks lately. Really gotten my mushrooms and onions game down. I could eat those as a meal by themselves. And a ham with cabbage and potatoes sounds great right now. I'm hungry... gonna go find some hot dogs. Someone around here has to be selling them.

Few different mustards:

And lacto-fermenting some onions:

I am the king of pickles.

I opened up a jar of pickles from last season this weekend. It was unlabeled but it definitely had some hot peppers in there, so it was obviously going to have some heat. Somehow it ended up being hotter than my regular hot pickles. Dunno how the heck that ended up happening. But they were very good!

Those mustards look great!

They're all finished now! Krauts and mustards are in the fridge. The big whole-grain mustard is underwhelming, but the other three are kickass. Horseradishy and salty and tart. Perfect for a big pretzel or to put in pub cheese or something.

Krauts are okay. Should have fermented them with some garlic or something. The napa kraut is the best and the red kraut is the most interesting-tasting so of course the regular, bleh kraut is what I made the most of. Not that it's horrible or even bad, I just know it could be better... and now I have like, two pounds of sauerkraut. They're all good on hot dogs, though.

Still need to find some hot dogs.

Cooked 11 pounds of steak this weekend. That was fun! Came out real good. Nice and rare!

Pickled. Eggs.

Red onion and habanero:

Tomato paste, brown sugar, smoked mume (sort of a riff on ketchup and eggs, wasn't very ketchupy):

And some classic beet pickled eggs, with the addition of carrots and onions, and the one where I actually photographed the process:

All of them also have garlic, mixed peppercorns, and brown/yellow mustard seeds put in.

OH MOTHER****ER!!! YOU DO PICKLED EGGS!?!?! <333333

I did a very large, unending batch of corn tonight. (wish me luck, even the old folks say corn is 50/50 for botulism) But yeah. Last Winter I did pickled/beet eggs and they were delicious. I absolutely love them. They are arguably easier than deviled eggs (even though I like those more) and have no cleanup. Plus they're really really good for you. I knew an old Army guy that swore by beets. Back in the day he was hit by one of his tanks (he was a tank commander) and his femur snapped. But unbeknownst to anyone he ate beets every day for breakfast. About six months into his recover his doctor asked him, and I quote "what the **** are you doing?" And he was unsure at first. The doctor went on to tell him that the repair on his broken femur was months ahead of schedule and when he revealed that he ate beets every day at breakfast all became clear.

Beets are without a doubt an excellent supplementary component to a good diet and allow for your body to reach its maximum potential. Basically Doug Funnie was right.
