Brief Description: "In the spirit of the great reformers and artists, Sandor Katz has labored mightily to deliver this opus magnum to a population hungry for a reconnection to real food, and to the process of life itself." - Sally Fallon, author of the nutrition and cookbook Nourishing Traditions "A unique cookbook for gardeners...This book will appeal to those interested in world food traditions, the history of human nutrition, and the "whys" of good food and good health." - The Washington Post " Wild Fermentation will serve as a training manual for thousands of culinary Harry Potters, working their magic in the tranquil atmosphere of sacred kitchens." - Wise Traditions "...the avant-garden prophet of fermented foods...." - Acres USA "...informative, thought-provoking and nothing less than inspiring...Wild Fermentation does not scare off readers with technicalities; it does everything it can to invite readers to begin fermenting on their own. And it succeeds." - In Good Tilth Biographical Note: Sandor Ellix Katz is a self-taught fermentation experimentalist. He wrote Wild Fermentation: The Flavor, Nutrition, and Craft of Live-Culture Foods (Chelsea Green, 2003)--which Newsweek called "the fermenting bible"--in order to share the fermentation wisdom he had learned and demystify the process of home fermentation. Since the book's publication, Katz has taught hundreds of fermentation workshops across North America and beyond, taking on a role he describes as a "fermentation revivalist." Now, in The Art of Fermentation, with a decade more experience behind him, he offers readers the unique opportunity to hear countless stories about fermentation practices. Answering thousands of troubleshooting questions, he's sharing a more in-depth exploration of the topic. Katz is also the author of The Revolution Will Not Be Microwaved: Inside America's Underground Food Movements (Chelsea Green, 2006).
