What do you generally use to get your ferments going? Whey is one of those fermentation starters that I never seem to have on hand. I don’t tend to strain my yoghurt or milk kefir to make it thicker and therefore often use a brine to get my cultured foods started. It’s a bit slower than some other methods, but is …
