Fish Hydrolysate a simple DIY tutorial

[Timj]

This is the recipe I use to make fish hydrolysate.

Here are the fish I will grind.

Ground fish.

Weigh your ground fish,this is important as everything you do from this point forward is based upon that weight.

This just shows my materials laid out.

Final product, start the fermentation process.I covered this with cheese cloth and will stir daily until finished around 2-3 weeks.

I'll break down the recipe as simple as I can.
1: Grind and weigh your fish.
2: Add three times the ground fish weight in water.
3: Using your ground fish weight add 1/3 that amount in molasses.
4: Add 2 Tablespoons Lactobacillus culture per quart of total above volume.

I made this tutorial as a member on another site posted the question on how to make it. I've made this several times in the past for my vegetable garden so it was easy to go to our pond catch the fish and make this thread. When made in this way, your finished product will smell like a high quality fish sauce used for cooking. To be honest, you'll be tempted to taste it as it smells that good. And.. no, I didn't taste it.
