This book is divided into chapters that focus on particular types of food, and Katz provides readers with delicious recipes - some familiar, some exotic - that are easy to make at home. They include vegetable krauts and tempeh, beers, wines and meads, yoghurts and cheeses. The recipes provide a veritable smogasbord of tastes, like homemade tempeh, sauerkraut, and borscht, along with a basic description of yoghurt and cheese-making, complete with vegan alternatives. Whether you prefer to wash down your meal with Elderberry wine or Nepalese rice beer, there's something here to satisfy any palate.

Often I find cookbook philosophy is padding, but in this case I found it riveting.… More reviews
- Fermented Author...
- I purchased this book in conjunction with Nourishing Traditions and at the recommendation of Amazon.com. Last time I do that. The author sees nothing wrong with promoting his "way left into oncoming traffic" unhealthy, unappetizing, and uninteresting, alternative (being nice here) lifestyle.
