Hi Diane,

Thanks for the feedback! I am not 100% sure, but because it is fermented, there are probably live cultures present.

Hi Hetal and Anuja,
I tried the Kanji (3rd day) and it is fantastic–what a wild, addictive flavor! Are there live cultures (probiotics) in this drink?

Adding the mustard seeds a day late wasn’t a problem.
I’m going to put it in the fridge tomorrow. I can’t wait to have it chilled.

I will add some of this concoction to a green smoothie to add to its taste and health benefits.

I love your website! It’s fun and very helpful 🙂

I did not sterilize any of the utensils that came in contact with the ingredients (as other websites instructed)–that won’t be a problem, right?

Also, I added the ground mustard seeds the second day grinding them up with some of the Kanji water in my VitaMix–is there a problem with adding the mustard on the second day?

Hi Manvi,

hmmm…its been a while since I’ve made the kanji but don’t remember the mustard seeds turning green. If anything, they should turn a bit red/fushia. You can always smell it. If there is fungus growing, you should be able to smell a foul odor.

I tried making kanji twice and both times on the 2nd- 3rd day I see a green layer on top of the kanji..Had sterilized all the utensils with boiling water before making the mix but did not help.
On looking closely it seemed that the mustard pwd changed green.
does the mustard change green on fermentation?
