If you're curious about food preservation other than dehydration or heat canning, watch this short video on the different commonly used types of fermentation, explained very simply so one may perhaps learn what exactly it is they're seeking and focus on that one particular type to suit their needs.

So many of the foods we eat are either fermented such as pickles or rely on fermentation as an ingredient step in the process of manufacturing such as sourdough bread. Vinegars rely on two types of fermentation at different stages.

It's all about various bacteria and the conditions they require to do the job.

Did you know that fermentation types are not all the same? This video shares 5 Types of Fermentation.===================➡️WEBSITE:https://cleanfoodliving.net...

Elderflowers harvested and dried, separated from stems.

How do I get them so clean and free of stems?

Pick flower clusters when most of the individual flowers have opened. Lay them outdoors in the shade for a day to allow most of the bugs to escape.

Bring them indoors and lay them on a sheet. After a couple of days the flowers will shrivel and be mostly dry while the stems remain green and flexible.

Rub the flowers between your palms over a large bowl. They will separate easily with little to no stems mixed in.

Flowers are great for making drinks and are used in my Infused Vinegars. They have more therapeutic properties in some cases than the berries.

Happenings along the Elderberry Way. IRS issued us an EIN today. Our live website pages are updated with affiliate links that open in a new page to Amazon for everything I use to do lots of things and make Super Smoothies except the actual Super Smoothie page with the herbal sources. I'm waiting on a different company not Amazon for their affiliate approval. If you buy something from any of these links, we get paid a little. This is something until we get our own store going. Still in talks about that. elderberryway.com

Spent the day cleaning up the website of complexities, editing some photos that had black lines down one side and just going over and over pages, checking grammar and such. I can't think of anything else to put into it until we get ready for our store. Only thing that needs to happen for it to go full live are some minor issues that should be resolved this week. Hoping by next weekend to publish all the pages we need up for now. 😅

Getting closer to our website going full live. Our homepage has been updated to reflect what we're about now, will soon link to other related pages in the website and ultimately to our online store. elderberryway.com

An excerpt from our Super Smoothie page.

A new visitor to Elderberry Way may focus on "Elderberry" and miss the "Way".

I'm passionate about Elderberry, don't get me wrong, our store will focus on Elderberry products but there's much more to the "Way". It just seemed to sound better than "path" or "journey".

Along the "Way", my personal path or journey with Elderberry has brought me into contact with certain herbal minded individuals who would recommend things for me to try from time to time after hearing of my specific medical challenges, or I would happen upon an article or video that would speak to me in a certain way. I poured every bit of enthusiasm into researching these things as I did Elderberry and either found a place I could purchase them in bulk, learned to find them in nature or grow them myself if they had anything to do with my pain management.

There was an Elderberry Way LLC business name problem with the state so I stuck my name in front of it. No big deal. I still will own ElderberryWay . com forever. We are official.
