Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2014
As a germ-a-phobe, I had a real fear of fermenting, but kept hearing over and over the benefit of fermented foods.
Skim the mold off and eat the rest? NOOooooooo!
I grew up on American cheese and a household mantra of 'When in doubt, throw it out'.
After the name of the author kept coming up while researching the topic, I finally bought this book.
It did so much more than provide recipes. He explains everything so clearly and completely that the fear begins to dissipate. This book is about courage. Courage in foods and in life.
And here's the thing...I wanted simple, safe recipes that I could read and execute. Not interested in any history or anecdotes. Yet I read this book cover to cover the first time I opened it.
There is a reason why 'Wild Fermentation' is wildly popular. Actually, MANY reasons.
It is down-to-earth, in every way. And so many of the recipes are, or can be adapted, to small amounts.
Very pleased with this book, and if you have an interest in health, good food, recipes, or just enjoy a good read, chances are you'll enjoy it as well.
