Earlier quoted context omitted.

What would have happened if you didn’t eat the yogurt?

At the time, I felt that my fingers might be paralyzed and they would fall off. Luckily, I ate the yogurt and they were saved. It is a testimony to the power of fermented foods.

I find no fault in this logic, it's watertight!

Author of the open sauce here. Coolt to see this on HN for the second time(!) Still making fermented sauces and pickles. Set Moroccan Salted Lemons this week actually. Happy to answer any questions. :-)

Hey,

Thanks for the recipe! I am also into fermented recipes.

Quick question, where do you buy Habanero Chilis in Germany? I somehow never saw them in supermarkets or "wochenmarkt"s.

Someone with Microsoft's copilot: Does that mean if you write "fermented chilli sauce recipe" in your IDE, it's now able to generate you a boilerplate recipe?

I'm getting this:

There is an argument to be made that a recipe is code, it just runs on a different platform

Or at least pseudocode - it fulfills the same purpose but is less formal/consistent than for example the esoteric programming language Chef.

I wish emacs would implement kitchen-sink support already.

You will not be surprised to learn of the existence of org-chef, a package to help writing recipes in org-mode.

I just did a batch of fermented hot sauce using home grown chillis. It's only my 3rd batch. The first batches I left for 4 weeks, but I let this last batch ferment for 10 weeks. The wait was worth it, it's a beautiful batch. Love the idea of using carrots though. Going to try that next batch. Thanks for sharing

Repo owner here - Can recommend adding carrots and maybe a little more parsnip depending on taste. It gives the sauce another "body" and I really enjoy it.

I am growing them myself! Last year I grew some Reapers and Scorpions for fun :-). I am from Austria though.

Github is a very good blogging platform- easy access to all the files, issues are the comments section, stars are likes, people can fork and make PRs, mentions the date on top and uses markdown. what more could you ask for?

I'd say that it's about as much wiki as it is blog, because the timeline feature that separates a blog from a pre-blog "homepage" is hidden to the point of being missing. Makes me wonder how an "alternate history wikipedia" would be like, where pages had explicit maintainers and the cotton fork model. The process for selecting the current leading fork would obviously be a huge source of endless drama, but I'd expect…

would probably be a hellscape, filled with opposing "facts", conspiracy theories and vandalism.. imo wikipedia is still better as it atleast tries to be factual and neutral (ofc it isn't perfect, but do you really want anti vaxers to show you what they think is a credible source right next to an actual credible source? why don't we let the baseless conspiracy theories stay on facebook)
