Black Pepper Coarse Grind Cert Organic (Piper nigrum; Hu Jiao) 1.28 oz. Pouch: K
|
Throughout medieval Europe, pepper was commonly traded, ounce for ounce, for gold. This irreplaceable spice has long been recognized as an ingredient for stimulating the appetite. Peppercorns can be, depending on their processing, either black, white, green and red. That is, the same plant produces all four types, depending on the time of harvest and the method of processing. 'Black pepper' is harvested nearly ripe and dried at a moderate temperature. 'White pepper' is harvested fully ripe, so that the outer hull can be easily removed, usually by soaking. This produces an equally strong, but less flavorful pepper. 'Green pepper' is harvested unripe, and then either pickled in salt or vinegar, or quick-dried. This produces a less pungent, more herbal flavor. 'Red pepper' is harvested ripe, and then pickled in salt or vinegar. This produces a very pungent, aromatic and tasty pepper that, since the pickling stopped the natural fermentation, still retains some of the more herbal flavor of the green variety. This is probably the most widely used spice in the world. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'Aromatic, stimulant, carminative; is said to possess febrifuge properties.... As a gargle it is valued for relaxed uvula, paralysis of the tongue. On account of its stimulant action it aids digestion and is specially useful in atonic dyspepsia and torbid condition of the stomach. It will correct flatulence and nausea. It has also been used in vertigo, paralytic and arthritic disorders. It is sometimes added to quinine when the stomach will not respond to quinine alone. It hasalso been advised in diarrhoea, cholera, scarlatina, and in solution for a wash for tinea capititis. Piperine should not be combined with astringents, as it renders them inert.' King's 1898 Dispensatory: 'Black pepper is a gastro-intestinal stimulant, and is much used as a condiment to improve the flavor of food, and to favor its digestion by stimulating the stomach. It has been advantageously used as a carminative to remove flatulency, and to correct the nauseating or griping quality of other drugs, and is sometimes added to quinine in cases where the stomach, from torpidity or other cause, is not acted upon by the quinine alone. 'As a gastric stimulant it is very valuable in congestive chill, cholera morbus, and associated with hydrastis, nux vomica, or other stomachic bitters is effectual in atonic dyspepsia. Combined with macrotys it has rendered good service in atonic amenorrhoea and dysmenorrhoea.'

Shiitake Mushroom Rye Based Spawn Starter Kit Small: SW
|
Cultivation Difficulty: Moderate Type: Edible/Medicinal Substrate: hardwood chips and sawdust, hardwood logs Colonization/Fruiting Temperatures 70-80F/50-70F The Bags included with this kit are specifically designed for primary spawn generation. If you are seeking a Grow Kit product for contained fruiting of Shiitake Mushrooms, please see our Shiitake Mushroom Grow Kits. Shiitake is a very popular edible mushroom that has been cultivated in Asia for centuries. It is a dense, chewy and meaty flavored mushroom that is good fried or grilled. Shiitake reportedly has wide-ranging health promoting and immunity stimulating properties against cancer, viral infection and high cholesterol. Fruiting formula by volume: 100 parts hard wood sawdust/small woodchips 10 parts bran 1 part gypsum (calcium sulfate) Water until moist and well soaked through. Drain or squeeze out excess water. The substrate should be damp but not wet. Pack into autoclavable bags and sterilized from 1-4 hours at 15 psi depending on the volume of the substrate. Larger volumes need a longer sterilization time to heat the core enough for complete sterilization. Depending on the type of bag and method of inoculation, the bags can be sealed before or after sterilization. Colonization is slow and may take as long as 1-2 months. Fruiting requires removing or puncturing the bag and providing a cool, well ventilated and humidified environment with indirect light. Hand misting daily and covering the bagless sawdust block loosely with a light plastic grocery bag (to maintain humidity) gives acceptable results on the kitchen counter. Our Edible and Gourmet Spawn Starter Kits include everything you need to begin the generation of edible and gourmet mushroom spawn. These kits include the edible mushroom culture and a number of our pre-sterilized bags of rye berries. The Bags included with this kit are specifically designed for primary spawn generation. If you are seeking a Grow Kit product for contained fruiting of Shiitake Mushrooms, please see our Shiitake Mushroom Grow Kits. Small kit includes one bag and 3cc culture syringe. Medium kit includes four bags and a 10cc culture syringe. Large kit includes ten bags and a 10ccculture syringe. Each bag contains just over 1 pound of precooked and pre-sterilized rye berries that can be used for primary spawn generation with culture injection through the self-healing injection site. To use, unfold the Bag, allowing the extra bag material to stand straight up. Locate the small foam disk sealed and attached in a plastic housing near the base of the Bag. This disc is the self-healing injector site. Note: The disc will be covered by a small plastic shield. Do not attempt to remove the plastic covering the disc, you will inject through it. Sterilize a small section of the outside of the Bag (on the plastic shield) directly over the foam disc with an alcohol soaked wipe. With the same alcohol soaked wipe, sterilize the needle on your culture sy
