{"product_id":"farmsteady-lacto-pickle-kit","title":"Lacto Pickle Kit, Half Gallon Fermenting Jar with Airlock Lid","description":"\u003cp\u003eReal pickles do not come from vinegar. The crunch and the tart pucker of a deli sour come from \u003cstrong\u003elacto-fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: salt, time, and nothing artificial. This kit is the whole setup for doing it on your kitchen counter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePack cucumbers into the half gallon glass fermenting jar with a salt brine, set the glass weight on top so everything stays submerged, snap on the airlock lid, and leave it alone. The airlock lets fermentation gases out while your pickles develop that unmistakable deli tang. No canning kettle, no vinegar, no special skills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black tea bag is the part people miss. It is the fermenter’s trick for extra crisp pickles, and FarmSteady puts one in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe jar, the glass weight and the airlock lid are reusable, so the first batch is the only one you pay for. The same setup handles round after round of whatever the farmers market hands you, and the printed box says so outright: great for kraut and fermented hot sauce too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYou supply the produce.\u003c\/strong\u003e Cucumbers, vegetables and water are not included in the box.
