I have to be honest and say I do not LOVE heart ..but it is good when it is well marinated and grilled I think...as for the proke I justdont know Cap! I cook kraut with pork all the time but never soaked it and the idea of a "sulferous smell" in meat is just not working for me!

my solution to everything if you think the meat is ok to eat and still has good flavor grind it up and make sausage ...maybe more seasoning!

I am waiting for the salmon to come in (I buy from out tribe as they haul in their run) but I still have another month then I am going to make some lox ...

I am still eating and enjoying purple kimchi! I have a jar of regular napa in there as well
