Fermented and preserved foods are beloved for their bold and layered flavors as well as their benefits for gut health, boosting immunity, and curbing sugar cravings, but until now, there hasn't been a book that is both authoritative and easy to use. Fermenting a Culture provides you with the history, health information, and safest methods for preserving, along with 115 recipes for krauts, pickles, kimchi, fermented vegetables, hot sauces, preserved fruits and jams, yogurt, kombucha, and even hard ciders and mead. With trusted authors Kathryn Lukas and Shane Peterson, owners of mega-brand Farmhouse Culture, and their thoroughly tested recipes, this is the fermentation book that every home fermenter needs--whether you are about to make your first batch of pickles or have been preserving foods for decades.
