Making natural ink from iron & oak apples (in finnish)..
Musta muste valmistetaan mustasta tanniinia sisältävästä pigmentistä. Tanniini ehkäisee musteen haalistumisen. Mustaa pigmenttiä on tammen väriomenissa (joita syntyy tammenlehdissä) sekä kanukan, lepän ja oratuomen kuoressa. Punaista mustetta voit valmistaa unikon terälehdistä seuraavan sivun ohjeen mukaan. Vaihteeksi voit hajustaa musteen hyvältä tuoksuvalla yrttiliuoksella.
__Hajustettu väriomenamuste__
250g murskattua väriomenaa 2,25 l kiehuvaa vettä tai yrttikeitettä muutama tippa haihtuvaa öljyä muutama tippa saksankirveli-tinktuuraa 45g arabikumia 80g rautavihtrilliä (rautasulfaattia)
1. Liota väriomenia vedessä vuorokauden ajan. Siivillöi. 2. Sekoita haihtuva öljy saksankirvelitinktuuraan ja lisää arabikumi 3. Hämmennä seos rautavihtrillin kanssa väriomena-liuokseen. Pullota ja liimaa nimilaput.

How does KIMCHI come about?
KIMCHI is the Korean name for pickles, any kinds of pickle. The most common and popular one is the cabbage pickle, also known as "Baechu Kimchi". And it has been named for one of the healthiest food among Olive Oil, Soy Bean, Yogurt and Lentil.
During the fermentation process, Lactobacillus also help the cabbage to develop a delicious flavor known as 旨味 Umami in Japanese or 鮮味 XianWei in Chinese.
