Product Description

home fermentationhome fermentation

Traditional pickling is an amazing way to turn all kinds of foods (not just cucumbers!) into sour, toothsome, nutritious snacks and toppings. It relies on fermentation to both preserve and transform practically any kind of produce, and is not to be confused with industrial pickling, which lacks its authentic taste, unique texture and irreplaceable nutritional value.

Condiments

Fruits and vegetables are the perfect starting point for those who want an introduction to fermentation without any of the fuss. Already bursting with flavor at the moment they're picked, they only require careful handling and simple seasoning to transform within a few days into condiments, toppings and snacks.

Fermentation

You can't talk about fermentation without talking about fruits and vegetables. Fermentation has always been, first and foremost, a great, efficient way to preserve crops all year long. Add them to your sandwiches, use them to decorate your salads, or enjoy them as a snack: they'll be delicious anywhere and for any occasion.

Kimchi

Kimchi is a Korean fermented dish made of vegetables and a broad variety of seasonings. While dozens of variations exist, most kimchi recipes use nappa cabbage, radishes, or cucumbers as their base.

Sauerkraut

Sauerkraut is to North American cuisine, what Kimchi is to Korean cuisine; a delicious fermented food which bears nutrients in large amounts. The key to a good sauerkraut recipe is for it to be tasty and easy to prepare.

Lactofermented Ketchup

In a small saucepan combine the cane sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until cane sugar is completely dissolved.

Mix the water and cane sugar with all other ingredients in a bowl.

Transfer the mixture to your Mortier Pilon jar. Make sure to leave 3/4 of an inch of head-space between the ketchup mixture and the rim of the jar.

Let the mixture ferment at room temperature, covered, for 2 to 5 days. Once the desired level of fermentation has been reached, refrigerate or serve.

Horseradish

In a food processor, combine the horseradish, salt and whey. Pulse for 1 minute until finely chopped.

Gradually add water and pulse until a doughy texture is achieved.

Transfer the mixture to your Mortier Pilon fermentation jar. Make sure to leave 3/4 of an inch of head-space between the horseradish mixture and the rim of the jar.

Let the mixture ferment at room temperature, covered for 1 week. Once the desired level of fermentation has been reached, refrigerate or serve.

Simple Sauerkraut

Chop or shred the cabbage depending on the desired consistency of the final product. Sprinkle with salt.

Work the cabbage with your hands or potato masher until there is plenty of liquid and the cabbage is a bit mushy. The portion of the process usually takes about 10 minutes.

Place the cabbage in your Mortier Pilon fermentation jar pressing the cabbage underneath the liquid (if necessary, add a bit of water to ensure sufficient liquid). The cabbage should be submerged under the liquid.

Let the mixture ferment at room temperature, covered, for 3 to 7 days, once the desired level of fermentation has been reached, refrigerate or serve.

Types of Fermentation

Alcoholic Fermentation

Alcoholic fermentation, also called ethyl fermentation, uses certain types of yeasts' ability to transform sugar into ethanol. Our ancestors quickly became familiar with this process as they were learning to brew their own alcohol.

mpmp

Types of Fermentation

Malolactic Fermentation

Malolactic fermentation generally occurs after alcoholic fermentation, once the sugars present in the fermented good have been entirely consumed, and brings about the production of acetic acid. Among other things, this process is used when making sugar.

Types of Fermentation

Lactic Fermentation

Lactic fermentation, finally, transforms sugars into lactic through the action of bacteria. It is the key to making yogurt, cheese, cured meats and vegetable pickles.

Title: Update
Review: I have had this for a while, and in the last year, I started using it regularly. It will hold more kimchi than it looks like it will and I like the glass feature - it allows me to keep an eye on how things are going and how much kimchi is left. Great option for someone that likes their kimchi fresher, and is making enough for a few people.

Title: Great First Fermenter
Review: I loved the price. This is good for a first-time fermenter who doesn’t want to spend a lot. I’m not a big fan of the plastic water seal top. It’s too light-weight; I’d pay a few more dollars for something a bit more substantial (Pyrex, ceramic, food safe metal?). . . I made Pa-Kimchi in it - still looks good several weeks later (now in the fridge).

Title: Nice Product if it Had all the Parts
Review: The device I am sure is wonderful, we have the kombucha 5L and it works well, but this product and its replacement were incomplete as they were both missing the ceramic weight required for proper fermentation. Whoever shipped this item needs to have better quality control.

Review: I own 3 if these crocks and the kombucha pitcher. They look and work great. I love this company's products and it's a shame they seem to have gone out of business.

Review: Trés bon produit, de qualité. La version kimchi n'est pas indispensable pour faire du kimchi, c'est la même jarre que le classique.La 2 litres est un peu petite si vous voulez faire du kimchi en quantité, je conseille la 5 litres.

Review: Rien ne vaut le Kimchi fait maison en terme de gout et surtout en terme de prix. Ce mortier est relativement cher pour une qualité standard. Les instructions ne sont pas super claires. Un point important ils disent de laisser environs deux centimetres entre le choux et le couvercle, c est plutôt 3 qu il faut laisser si vous le voullz pas voir le haut exploser avec la pression du morceau de pierre sur le couvercle. Surveillez bien les 4 premiers jours si du jus s'échappe du bocale par la soupape a eau ré ouvrez le bocale pour enlever du choux. le système est bien et permet de facilement faire une fermentation sans aucunes infections extérieures, en revanche avec l espace qu il faut laisser le bocal de 2 litres est vraiment petit, si j en rachete un je prendrais la version 5 litres. A noter que en aucun cas ce bocal empêchera les odeurs d envahir la piece et le frigo. Moi cela ne me gène pas je le stocke dans mon vieux frigo dans le garage.

Review: Fantastic, produced great kimchi. Only slight issue that the top is awkward to screw on and you can't put it all in the dishwasher.

Review: Cheap looking!Just received the Mortier Pilon Kimchi Special Edition 2 L pot. Am amazed that I paid so much money for this cheap looking piece of kitchen ware. The glass looks like recycled glass and the plastic of a cheaper quality. I have a feeling it probably is produced for under £10.00. Wouldn't have entertained buying it for this price in a shop! Have a feeling I have been taken for a ride.
