#89 - 'Snotty' Ferments, Ale Recipe & Convincing Those Who Won't Listen (a Peek into a Patron Exclusive Podcast)

Every month, we record not only the episodes you listen to here on Ancestral Kitchen but also a special show for supporters of the podcast - that is, our patrons.

The episode you’re about to hear is one of these patron-exclusive shows from earlier in the year. In it you’ll get a taste of the sort of things we cover - we regularly talk about what’s happening in our own lives, often sharing things we wouldn’t in the main episodes and we also, as you will hear, answer really juicy questions from our patrons.

If you’d like to continue to listen to these episodes plus get access to a back-catalogue of nearly 40 more, along with so many more interesting and supportive goodies, check out our patreon community at https://patreon.com/ancestralkitchenpodcast

What we cover:

This podcast is more informal than our usual Ancestral Kitchen podcasts. This is because it was originally recorded for our community of Patreon supporters. We record one of these every month, here's what we talked about on this episode:

• Alison's current low histamine diet
• Patron Hanna's experience with snot (also known as a leuconostoc overgrowth!) appearing in her rye kvass and how she fixed it
• Ancestral ale - all the detail on Alison's process
• Norwegian farmhouse yeast
• How ancestral eating is so much about zero waste
• How ancestral foods taste and how SAD eaters handle the difference
• Patron Amelia's question: How do we influence people who don't want to listen?
