Know your kimchi from your sauerkraut? Your kefir from your kvass? Fermented foods are now an essential part of our diet - they're tasty and we know they're good for us. Even better, we can make them ourselves.
Drawing on years of creative experimentation at the award-winning Ethicurean restaurant, Matthew Pennington and Nicola Cradock show you how to transform humble ingredients - like vegetables, fruit, milk, and grains - into vibrant foods and nutritious drinks.
From classic kimchi to beetroot and caraway sauerkraut, elderflower water kefir and 'peackles', you'll learn the basic techniques to ferment almost anything. Discover:
- The remarkable power of lactobacillus
- Why fermented foods are key for gut health
- How to build a weekly rotation of ferments in your kitchen
