I love this idea. It also made me think that a clean mesh bag inside a plastic bag could work really well, too!

@@WillowJarosh I agree 💯😉😊

There is quite a lot of info to address this in the description of this video. No one is using bags that have touched groceries or the ground or anything else. Super happy for you that you love your salad spinner-not sure why calling my mom's kitchen hack gross needs to be in there!

I’m sorry you’re offended, but you didn’t address the fact that you’re using a clean grocery bag. How does one get a “clean” grocery bag? I think there may be other ways that offer less contamination as others have suggested in the comments. Not everyone will find this appealing. I’m glad it works for you, but my mother and I immediately thought about the uncleanliness of those bags.

She will be very happy with this comment 😂💗

Yes! you can use a double bag (so the second one that doesn't touch groceries) or use any of the suggestions compiled in the video description!

Thanks a lot my dear​@@WillowJarosh

i've found that some batches don't thicken up and some get super thick. I think temperature and ambient bacteria/yeast probably affect this but also potentially the probiotic that you use. I'd probably try again with the same probiotic and coconut milk to see if it works a second time. if not, maybe try a different probiotic strain? to thicken this batch you can stir in a little corn starch or cassava root powder!

It should! Tho it will likely also speed up fermentation, since there will be more bacteria to eat the sugars. so you might want to decrease the time you let it sit. Or, taste it halfway through and see if it's tasting sour.

Love this! Those greens would be super dry and whatever is under your window gets watered!

ahhh yup. maybe a reusable nylon bag could work!?

🤣🤣🤣 Hope you both enjoy (+ any cats who are invited!)

wow using the washing machine on spin dry is a whole other level! and definitely use a clean grocery bag!

Welcome! Thanks for watching!

yessssss 🙌 the space saving is so key!

love this!

it is! you can ensure this a few different ways -- from using the outer bag of a doubled bag to using a large zip top bag fresh from the package to other options like clean pillow cases or mesh bags (if you can spin it outside). Some of the ideas are in the video description and some are within the comments.

what else would I do with it? 🤣

I'm so glad you enjoyed!

@@WillowJaroshNutrition I am so happy also, I fell better now. Beautiful. Thank you.

There are lots of alternatives in the caption notes if you’re uncomfortable with a grocery bag.

I’m not sure! I think Seed has prebiotics and probiotics in it- I’m not sure how that will affect the process. If you try it, will you let me know how it goes?

Not sure I understand?

Love that suggestion!!

Awesome! The bag-inside-bag idea is such a good idea!

There's a small amount of naturally occurring sugar in the coconut milk -- not enough to be labeled but enough for the bacteria to initially feed on. Once the process of fermentation starts then some of the bacteria feed on the byproducts of that fermentation. However, if you want to let it ferment a little longer/get a little more sour, adding a small amount of sugar to the coconut milk works!

😂😂😂 New title: "How to turn yourself into a salad spinner"

Hi! Hmmm I can think of two things to try. I’d try mixing the probiotic into the milk and doing a 24 hour ferment. Or mixing it in and sticking it the fridge to do a slower ferment (so maybe check it after a week in the fridge). The other thing I’m wondering is if you might try stirring it every 30 minutes or so for the first couple hours it’s in the fridge just to prevent the saturated fat from separating on the top and hardening. I hope this helps!! Let me know!

@@WillowJaroshNutrition Thank you. I will try stirring every 30 minutes, after I put them into the fridge.

I hope it works for you!! I was very happy to get rid of my spinner and free up some kitchen space!!

There are some ideas in the description for ensuring it’s clean! One is to get an extra bag at the market and use that only for the lettuce drying!

Hi! Lots of tips for ensuring the bag is clean in the video description as well as the comments. Hope this helps!

😂😂 I will pass your thanks to my mom!

Hi! If you look in the description there are lots of suggestions for ensuring it’s a clean bag. I use the second bag from a doubles bag-so it never touched anything. You can also buy plastic bags and use those. If you have outdoor space, several people have suggested clean pillow cases or baskets!

Oh no! So sorry it didn’t work for you.

This was exactly my situation, too! I don’t have room for a salad spinner! Hope you enjoy!!

🙌🙌🙌

Hi! There are lots of options for ensuring there’s no cross contamination from the bag used-I’ve put these in the description! From clean pillowcases to using a clean small garbage bag!

Oh no! I’m so sorry you didn’t have good luck with it. Let me know if you want to troubleshoot to try again at any point!

Thank you! I'm so glad you found it! Enjoy the spinning! :)

Hi! Spinners definitely work and I'm glad you love yours! I've compiled all the ideas from the comments related to ensuring the bag is clean. These are all posted in the video info!

Yes I used to do the same! I hope your family enjoys the nice dry lettuce for those wraps!!

Wayyyyy more fun! 😂🙌

Welcome!!! Hope you like!

Thank you!!!

Ok. One full head of iceberg lettuce .... dry enough. Worked better than that roll of paper towels the other night. NOW! We all know iceberg and it’s 20 thousand nooks and crannies throughput its entire nutritionless head. But, lately I’ve gotten so sick of that bagged salad, with no crunch or texture. Heck! It doesn’t even get cold! So, instead, I’ve gone back to iceberg as my BASE for all the healthy, nutritious stuff I add. But I digress. I had to give it quite a few spins, then broke it down into smaller chunks. I added about 10 slightly crumpled paper towels to the bag and gave it its final spin. I must say, I’m impressed and the words SALAD SPINNER!!! will not be going on this girls list! Thank you ... and thank your Mom for me.

Ahhhhh this is so awesome to hear and I’ll tell my mom, too! Thanks for the update after trying it. I’m so glad it worked for you. Also, I love iceberg lettuce, too!

I hope it works for you! Same re kitchen space. I don’t have enough storage space for a spinner.

Showed her this comment and it made her day 💗

Yayyyyyy I’m so glad you like it!!!
