    THE SECRET IS SMOKED OYSTERS. I have stacks of them. She always forgets and uses the fresh canned and its fishy. Its a turkey side for the love of Martha Stewart. I am so misunderstood.:confused:

    Even the dogs enjoyed Turkey since I fed them under the table. DW thinks I am stealing their affections but I speak treats is all.

    You need the probiotic from a small jar of sourkraut. Think of it as a sourdough starter. It won't take much. 1 Tbsp or 2. There are certain strains that taste better than others in the world of fermenting.

    Funny the article mentioned pistachio nuts. Yesterday I made dinner and crushed pistachio with a mortar and pestle. 8000 years later and they get delivered in a hello fresh box.
