Sprouting/Fermenting Line: All Year Round 100% Non-toxic Multi-Use Pots

Miriam's Earthen Cookware is running a great sale on pots & pans that can be used for all-season organic sprouting/ fermenting/ food storage and gardening. Unlike the Alternate line, these pots and pans do not come with lids and may have some cracks (not just hairline) so they may not be suitable for cooking but you can get a great many other non-toxic uses. Some are explained below the products.

Sprouting in MEC - the healthiest way to sprout your beans and lentils without chemicals

Sprouting beans and lentils in Miriam’s Earthen Cookware is an easy process yeilding rich and nutritious sprouts. Because these pots are breathable and rich in nutrients, the process of germination is fast and food looks rich and healthy, for example, as you can see in the picture, the shoots are not limp or weak in appearence - the way they turn out in metal or plastic containers. For Sprouting: Soak the lentils for 8-12 hours, beans for 24 hours. Drain the water and add your soaked lentils and beans to the pot. Set aside in a warm, dark place covered for 24 hours for lentils and 36 hours for beans.  If lentils/beans were purchased more than 6 months ago, increase soak and germination times by 8 hours.

 

Healthy fermenting in a stone potFermenting in Miriam's pots is much healthier and an easy process. While fermenting could take days or sometimes even weeks to accomplish in other vessels, because these pots are breathable, it allows just enough oxygen to get in and beautifully ferments your food in 2-3 days the longest. For Fermenting: Add your prepared ingredients to the pot, add sea salt, mix thoroughly, cover by placing lid up-side-down (this allows for lid to press against the food inside). Set aside to ferment for 24-48 hours. It is a good idea to season your pot before using for fermenting

 

 

 

 

For Food Storage: You may store your eggs, flour, beans, potatoes in a safe and non-toxic way in these pots. The EMF radiation from refrigerator causes depletion of essential nutrients but storing your food outside (of the refrigerator) in these pots can prevent this nutritional loss. Customers who store their eggs say “they last longer and taste fresher”. If storing eggs, please place a folded towel in the bottom of the pot as a cushion.

 

 

 

 

 

For Organic Gardening: Add soil, add your seeds, place the pot in a spot that can get sufficient sunlight. It is a good idea to elevate the pot slightly to allow for air circulation and drainage. A tip to watering your plants: Check to see if the soil is dry and if it is dry, water the plant. Don’t overwater, to the extent that you see water stagnant on the surface.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can I use the Organic Gardening/Sprouting/Fermenting Pot for Cooking?

Yes, you can attempt to cook in the gardening/sprouting/fermenting pots, but we cannot guarantee they will last. For the best results, we recommend using pots and pans from our Regular Line, or for a discount the Alternate line, for cooking. The Gardening/Sprouting/Fermenting pots come without lids, so if you wish to try to use them for cooking, you can order a lid separately from here: Replacements for Pot/Pan Lids
