Make natural nutrition-packed sauerkraut and pickled
vegetables with this stoneware crock pot from Germany! Through the years,
sauerkraut has been recognized as one of the healthiest foods, and was even
used on sailing ships to protect sailors from scurvy. In just 4-8 weeks you can have delicious
sauerkraut from all typed of vegetables like cabbages, pumpkins, cucumbers,
carrots, beans, beets, celery, onions and peppers.
Recently in the news, sauerkraut and pickled vegetables fermented the natural
way with lactic acid fermentation are being credited with correcting bodily
imbalances of intestinal flora, leading to problems including acid reflux for
which doctors often prescribe harsh antibiotics.
Natural lactic acid fermentation is one of the oldest and healthiest means of
food preservation. It allows natural, beneficial bacteria to perform a
fermentation process in which vegetables develop a pleasantly sour taste and remain
rich in vitamins and minerals. Lactic acid fermentation is the only method of
preservation that retains all the natural plant ingredients while improving the
quality, taste and aroma.
These beautifully crafted stoneware crock pots from Germany produce 5.0 Liters
of pickled vegetables very simply. The use of ceramic weight stones eliminates
mold while the clever water sealing system allows fermentation gasses to escape
without allowing air to enter the crock pot. Simple instructions for use and
recipes are included.
What’s Special about Schmitt Crocks?
Schmitt crocks are German quality stoneware made using liquid
slurry poured clay. This process creates a stronger and lighter weight crock
for easier handling. Traditional fermenting
crocks had a bottom to lid-top capacity of 5 liter. You couldn’t fill it all
the way or the pressing stones wouldn’t fit. The Schmitt crock has a full 5 liters of
fermenting capacity, so the crock is actually larger than 5 liters The Schmitt
fermentation crock has a special cast gutter in the rim and includes a ceramic
cover which fits into the gutter. It
also comes with a 2-piece stone that is used to weigh down the vegetables and
apply pressure during the fermenting process.
The Schmitt Fermenting Crocks have a delightful dark brown finish.
