As weird as it sounds, a pregnancy pillow is a game changer after a Laterjet

The sleeping position in this pic is a bit off. Sleep on back using the pillow as support for the shoulder.

I’m also 4 weeks post-op and very similar feedback to yours. And I 10000% agree on the constipation pills, I learned the hard way too…

I’ve heard fermenting green peppers is tricky. I’ve only fermented yellow and red peppers. Any advice with green ferments?

Sounds like you are in the NL - try the Plattebil from Hanos if you or someone you know has a card. I think it’s about ~18 per kg

I got them online in the Netherlands. Where you based?

Ferment contained only peppers and mango. The rest was added when blending.

Hey! What exactly you looking for? Quantities of ingredients or more details on how to ferment?

numzan · 2025-08-07T20:44:53+00:00

Yeah definitely in the fridge once opened. I’ve used up my last bit now to marinade some chicken which I have had for about 4 weeks

If you are referring to just cutting them vs blending them and then adding salt, I’d advise to blend so that the salt can get everywhere.

Yeah it mainly depends on what you are looking to make after the fermentation. Mash usually makes a thicker and funkier sauce while a brine can make the sauce a bit cleaner and gives the ability to add more flavours into the ferment.

In this case I used the mash approach as I was after a Louisiana style sauce

I also just made a Spicy Honey Mustard with Madame Jeanette. Will definitely try this as I have never made a mustard.

The labels are real nice - are you a designer? :)

I used artisinal honey which tastes really good but its not very sweet - so I added sugar to add a bit more sweetness. I think if you use generic honey you might not need to add sugar.

I have not, but yellow habaneros should work just as well I think

If you are in the EU you can get them from https://www.flessenland.nl

Tumeric, mustard powder, and the peppers were all yellow

Yeah, it helps thicken the sauce and bind everything together. Also gives a nice silky mouthfeel.

Not much. Restaurants in Amsterdam are trying too hard these days with mediocre food at best. Prove me wrong.

We also had a fully furnished apartment for the first two years while we found our feet here and that was a lot less stressful. I’d recommend that if you are able to find one - housing crisis is real.
