60 classic and unique recipes for probiotic-rich ferments such as
sauerkraut, pickled veggies, salsas, kimchi, sourdough, jun tea,
and more! Fermenting, in the simplest definition, is changing food
into a healthier version of itself—a version that basically stays
fresh, forever. Sounds kind of magical, doesn’t it? It kind of
is. Fermenting is what happens when you mix two things together:
food and salt. As soon as food and salt are combined, they wake up
microbes—bacteria and yeast that are living in and on the
food. This book explores a specific type of fermentation: raw
pickling or live-fermentation. Live-fermented foods are the
healthiest to eat and easiest to make. Live-fermentation is simpler
than canning and the food lasts longer than freezing. This
technique saves time and energy, as it cuts down on heating and
cooking. Live-fermented foods do not require refrigeration. Plus,
they can stay fresh indefinitely. Â In addition to saving
energy costs, fermenting increases a food’s health benefits.
Live-fermented foods are healthier than their original raw
products. Vital nutrients and vitamins—often destroyed with
heating—are not only kept alive, but improved. And other
nutrients are actually created during fermentation. Susan Crowther
and Julie Fallone offer step-by-step instructions for pickling and
fermenting all kinds of produce from carrots to garlic to sweet
potatoes, plus offers recipes for Live-Fermented Hot Sauce,
Fermented Hot Honey, and more unique and healthy goodies. Readers
will also find recipes for kombucha, jun tea, and other probiotic
drinks. Finally, there's an abundance of recipes for incorporating
your probiotic-rich ferments into other recipes, such as Healthier
Hummus, Jun Sourdough Bread, Cultured Muffins, and even . . . wait
for it . . . Chocolate Sauerkraut Cake! Â
