Hello Reader, I can still picture my mom standing at the stove, jars of freshly picked peaches 🍑 simmering in the canner.

Hello Reader, Every time I open my fridge to grab a jar of sauerkraut, I resist taking out my jar of Dilly Delight Sauerkraut. I can't bring myself to finish the jar. It is so, so delicious.

Hello Reader, It was the middle of summer—definitely not the ideal time to make sauerkraut or kimchi. To make things even trickier, our kitchen was under construction. Between the sheetrock dust and limited access to my sink, I had to grab short bursts of time to work on my book. I was remaking all the sauerkraut recipes, testing new ones, and developing a complete set of kimchi recipes. With so many heads of cabbage to slice, I needed a tool that would make quick work of it.
