| Jar Of Beet Kvass |
While the rain comes down outside I will be in the kitchen making beet kvass. Beet kvass is a healthful probiotic beverage made with whey. Check out the luscious vibrant color. Beet kvass strengthens the digestion when 4-oz. are taken in the morning and in the evening. In addition, Beet kvass alkalizes the blood, cleanses the liver, and is a good treatment for kidney stones.
Can lacto-fermented beet kvass offer protection from the effects of radiation?
Dr. Thomas Cowan who wrote "The Fourfold Path To Healing" has this to say about foods that protect us from radiation.
"Special foods that have been shown to counteract radiation sickness include naturally fermented miso, beets, kombucha and sea vegetables, such as kombu."
RECIPE FOR BEET KVASS
3 medium beets, peeled and chopped into cubes
1/4 c. whey
1 T. celtic salt
filtered water
Sterilize a 2-quart glass jar with boiling water. Boil the lid too. Place beets, whey and salt in the glass jar. Add filtered water to fill the container. Stir it well with a chop stick. Cover securely. Keep it at room temperature on the kitchen counter for 2 days before transferring to the refrigerator.
When most of the liquid has been drunk, you may re-fill the glass jar with water and keep at room temperature for another 2 days. The second brew will be slightly less strong than the first. After the second brew, discard the beets and start again with a fresh batch.
