Fermentation Rules
Before starting any ferments be sure to follow all the Basic Fermentation Rules. This is the best way to ensure that you have a successful ferment.
However, if the results of your fermentation aren’t what you expect then throw it away. Fermented food should look and smell delicious. If you are ever uncertain about something you’ve fermented then throw it away. Food poisoning is not fun, and I am not responsible for anyone who eats something that has gone bad.
