Я решил начать квасить*... I decided to start Fermenting*...

Я раньше никогда не квасил (fermented - cultured, pickled, brewed, processed - the act of allowing food to undergo fermentation, typically to preserve it and enhance its flavor), но часто видел как квасят другие...

В какой-то момент, когда я общался с иностранными товарищами, они рассказали мне, что квасить (to ferment - to brew, to pickle, to process, to culture - the process of allowing food or drink to undergo fermentation, enhancing flavor and preserving it) очень полезно.

Так как я никогда не квасил (fermented - cultured, pickled, brewed, processed - the act of allowing food to undergo fermentation, typically to preserve it and enhance its flavor) раньше, я стал обдумывать, как мне наквасить (to ferment - to brew, to pickle, to process, to culture - to initiate the process of fermentation in food or drink) и не ошибиться.

Я просмотрел несколько роликов и печатных (printed - published, documented, written, hardcopy - relating to something that is physically printed or published in a book, article, or other material) материалов в разных источниках и социальных сетях.

После чего я уяснил (realized - understood, comprehended, grasped, recognized - to become fully aware of something as a fact; to understand clearly) самое главное, что лучше квасить (to ferment - to brew, to pickle, to process, to culture - the process of allowing food or drink to undergo fermentation, enhancing flavor and preserving it) целенаправленно (purposefully - intentionally, deliberately, intentionally, meaningfully - with a specific goal in mind; done with intention) и не пускать (to let go - to release, to allow, to set free, to relinquish - to allow something to be free, to not take action to prevent it from happening) дело на самотёк (to run its course - to unfold, to proceed naturally, to continue, to develop on its own - to allow events to flow without interference).

Всё дело в правильной ферментации (fermentation - brewing, culturing, pickling, souring - the biochemical process in which sugars are converted into alcohol or organic acids by microorganisms)!

Сиречь (namely - that is, specifically, in other words, to clarify - used to specify or explain something in more detail) брожении (fermentation - brewing, culturing, pickling, souring - the process of converting sugars into alcohol or acids through yeast or bacteria)!

Дело в том, что если квасить (fermented - cultured, pickled, brewed, processed - the act of allowing food to undergo fermentation, typically to preserve it and enhance its flavor) капусту дома, то можно случайно получить пропионовое (propionic - acid-producing, metabolic, souring, fermentative - relating to or deriving from propionic acid, often produced during fermentation) брожение, то есть, иными словами, готовый продукт будет вонять (to stink - to smell bad, to emit a foul odor, to reek, to have a pungent odor - to have a strong, unpleasant smell) как заношенные (worn - used, shabby, threadbare, tattered - referring to something that is heavily used and therefore has a worn appearance) носки или вонючий (smelly - stinky, foul, noxious, pungent - having a strong, unpleasant smell) сыр.

Чтобы получить направленное брожение (fermentation - brewing, culturing, pickling, souring - the process of converting sugars into alcohol or acids through yeast or bacteria), нужно сделать так, чтобы нужные вам бактерии (bacteria - microbes, microorganisms, pathogens, germs - single-celled organisms that can exist independently or as parasites) и грибки (fungi - mushrooms, molds, yeasts, spores - organisms that are distinct from plants and animals, including yeasts and molds) получили численное (numerical - quantitative, scalar, measurable, statistical - relating to or expressed as a number; capable of being counted) преимущество в самом начале!

Во-первых, нужно, по возможности соблюдать бытовую (household - domestic, home, residential, routine - pertaining to the activities or objects related to the home) гигиену - мыть продукты, сырьё, рабочее пространство, посуду для приготовления и хранения, и руки.

Во вторых, после первичной (initial - primary, first, original, preliminary - relating to the first phase or stage) заготовки (preparation - provisioning, harvesting, storing, gathering - the act of preparing or storing food items before the main process) , внести в массу овощей бактериальную (bacterial - germ-related, microorganism-related, microbial, infectious - relating to bacteria, which are microscopic organisms) культуру.

В-третьих, убедиться, чтобы кислотность (acidity - sourness, sharpness, tanginess, tartness - the quality of being acid, measured typically in pH) достигла минимального целевого (target - goal, aim, objective, intended - related to a goal or an objective to be achieved) значения, а это примерно (approximately - roughly, about, nearly, around - close to, but not exactly) 4 - 3,5 pH.

С первым проблем нету - моющие (detergents - cleaners, soaps, agents, surfactants - substances used for cleaning, often containing surfactants) средства, очистка (washing - cleansing, scrubbing, cleaning, purifying - the process of removing dirt or impurities from something, typically through water) овощей от гнильцы (rot - decay, decomposition, spoilage, corruption - the process of organic matter decomposing) и черноты (blackness - darkness, soot, discoloration, dirt - referring to dirt or impurities that give a black appearance). Помыть посуду и руки - тоже всякий справится.

Для третьего есть "лакмусовая (litmus - pH paper, indicator, test strip, analytical tool - a type of test paper used to determine acidity or basicity) бумага", где по изменению цвета красителя (dye - pigment, coloring agent, stain, tint - a substance used to add color) и проверочной (testing - evaluative, examination, validation, assessment - relating to the process of testing) таблицы кислотность определяется не сложно и достаточно точно - я проверял на простой воде (water - H2O, liquid, solvent, refreshment - a clear, colorless liquid essential for life) , соде и уксусе - значение pH проверяется по таблице и примерно соответствует справочным (reference - advisory, consultative, informational, guideline - relating to a source of information used for comparison or guidance) данным.

Для пункта два нужно где-то приобрести закваску (starter culture - fermentation starter, inoculum, culture, ferment - a microbial culture used to initiate fermentation in food or drink).

Вариант природный (natural - organic, unrefined, raw, wild - originating from nature, not artificially modified) - народный - сама налетит (will come - will appear, will drift, will arrive, will show up - to come unexpectedly or seamlessly) из воздуха и немытых (unwashed - dirty, not cleaned, contaminated, unprocessed - not cleaned, often implying dirtiness) рук,

Вариант замороченный (complicated - complex, intricate, elaborate, involved - requiring much effort or thought; not simple) - купить специализированные (specialized - specific, targeted, focused, tailored - designed for a particular purpose or field) закваски.

Вариант ленивый - купить продукт с уже имеющимися культурами бактерий (bacteria - microbes, microorganisms, pathogens, germs - single-celled organisms that can exist independently or as parasites).

Я - ленивый.

По этому, в качестве закваски (starter culture - fermentation starter, inoculum, culture, ferment - a microbial culture used to initiate fermentation in food or drink) я взял НЕ Стерилизованный (non-sterilized - untreated, raw, unprocessed, crude - not subjected to sterilization, remaining in its raw form) йогурт, без вкусо-ароматических (flavoring - seasoning, additives, flavor agents, enhancers - substances added to food to improve taste or aroma) добавок (additives - ingredients, supplements, enhancers, enhancements - ingredients added to food to preserve flavor or enhance taste), с содержанием бактерий (bacteria - microbes, microorganisms, pathogens, germs - single-celled organisms that can exist independently or as parasites) 1х10 в седьмой степени на грамм. И не жирный (not fatty - lean, low-fat, non-greasy, skimmed - containing little or no fat) , чтобы не появился, случайно, запах прогорклого (rancid - stale, spoiled, bad-tasting, corrupted - having a taste or smell that is unpleasant due to chemical changes). масло.

У меня было 2,3 кило капусты, 0,7 кило моркови, 0,060 кило соли (2% к массе овощей), 0,1 кило йогурта. Дальше, я настрогал (shredded - cut, chopped, sliced, diced - to cut into thin strips) овощи, забросил (threw in - added, tossed, put in, mixed in - to add something quickly) соль и йогурт, пожамкал (squished - squeezed, compressed, pressed, mashed - to crush or squeeze something with force) , перемешал (mixed - stirred, blended, combined, incorporated - to combine two or more ingredients thoroughly) , поставил под гнёт (weight - pressure, burden, load, stone - a heavy object used to exert pressure on something). Время от времени я измерял (measured - gauged, assessed, evaluated, calculated - to ascertain the size, amount, or degree of something) кислотность, пока она не достигла 4 pH.

Капуста на вкус стала кислой, примерно как лимон, но оттенок вкуса другой, не цитрусовый (citrus - tangy, zesty, lemony, orange-flavored - relating to or denoting fruits of the citrus family, such as lemons and oranges). После этого, капуста постояла ещё один день в комнате. После чего была разложена по банкам и убрана в холодильник.

И далее, квашеная (fermented - cultured, pickled, brewed, processed - referring to food that has been preserved through fermentation) капуста уехала жить в холодильник. Способ годный (good - suitable, appropriate, valid, effective - being of good quality, conducive to a purpose), вкус отменный (excellent - outstanding, superb, splendid, remarkable - exceptionally good; outstanding in quality), всем советую.

Пропионовокислое (propionic - acid-producing, metabolic, souring, fermentative - relating to or deriving from propionic acid, often produced during fermentation) брожение — это процесс разложения (decomposition - breakdown, disintegration, decay, dissolution - the process of breaking down into smaller compounds) молочной кислоты и её солей до пропионовой (propionic - acid-producing, metabolic, souring, fermentative - relating to or deriving from propionic acid) и уксусной (acetic - vinegar-like, sour, sharp, tangy - relating to acetic acid, a key component of vinegar) кислот, углекислого (carbonic - CO2-related, gaseous, bubbling, effervescent - relating to or derived from carbon dioxide) газа и воды.
