Wild Fermentation: The Flavor, Nutrition, and Craft of Live-Culture Foods
Fermentation is one of the earliest natural processes involving food and its preservation that humans sought to control. The earliest puffed-up breads, wines, and cheeses likely occurred by chance, and results were scarcely uniform or predictable. Sandor Ellix Katz has experimented with Wild Fermentation, and his book explains to others how to take advantage of natural fermentation processes to produce bread, yogurt, cheese, beer, wine, miso, sauerkraut, kimchi, and other fermented foods.

New color images replace many old black-and-white images, and more than 200 NEW color photographs of pathological conditions enhance this Edition.
