Guest guest Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Yum! Can't wait to try this. I've got about a gallon that is too vinegary to drink. I'm gonna use some for salad dressing & some for chicken. Ty for the recipe... > > I like to brine my chicken before baking. Today, I had some very vinagery kombucha, so I used it as the liquid in my brine. My chicken is delicious! > > I used about 1/2 cup of non-iodized salt, same amount of sugar, and a quart of very tart kombucha. I soaked the chicken in this mixture for 4 hours. Then I rinsed the chicken, patted it dry, and applied this to the chicken: olive oil, beau monde seasoning, pepper, paprika, cream of celery soup, and vermouth. I baked the chicken at 375 degrees for a little over an hour. > > Yum! The kombucha added a sort of spiciness to the flavor of the chicken. Plus, the skin was very crispy. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Cool, never thought of using kombucha as a marinade! I've been doing short ribs in crockpot w/ 1 cup each apple cider & tomato juice, then 1/2 cup or so of a kombucha I make w/ sun-dried tomatoes & dill weed, plus a tablespoon of raw honey.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 don't forget that you can simply add more sweet tea to overly tart kombucha, & let it ferment, to wind up w/ kombucha that is more drinkable. If it's too much liquid for a single container, you can cut the SCOBY in 1/2 and make 2 containers of kombucha. Tho' I'm all for making chicken and salad dressing w/ it, too... ;^> > > Yum!

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 We here at our home have been using Kombucha tea as a substitute for any white wine, with fair - great results. Also when used in a beer batter instead of beer we get a very yummy Kombucha batter. Try it the next time you do Onion Rings. Cole slaw turns out good too. > > > > Yum! Can't wait to try this.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I am tempted to make a Kombucha vinegarette, has anyone done that yet? > > > > > > Yum! Can't wait to try this.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Hi ...I keep kombucha vinegar on hand just for making salad dressing. I just substitute kt vinegar for access in any vinegarette recipe. I think it tastes better. > > > > > > > > Yum! Can't wait to try this. I've got about a gallon that is too vinegary to drink.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Would one worry about the detox effects of " too much " when using KT in cooking, or are they diminished when the Kt is cooked? Thanks!!

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Hi, Modiste. I believe the general consensus is that " detox " effects are caused primarily by lactobacillus cultures in kombucha, which are definitely killed when you heat food higher than around 120 degrees F. > > Would one worry about the detox effects of " too much " when using KT in cooking, or are they diminished when the Kt is cooked? > Thanks!!

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Well now. That is interesting! So, one perhaps wouldn't need an acidopholis supplement when using Kombucha?
