Today I want you to get started in fermentation with some simple ideas and fermentation recipes in several fermented foods categories. Everyone has to start somewhere, but just like the key to getting anywhere in life, the answer is that you have to start doing SOMETHING.
The journey of 1000 miles starts with a single step so take that first step!
In this show I briefly go over things like pickles, sodas, and include recipes to things I started out with like sauerkraut and a no-knead bread recipe that’s extremely simple. Another recipe that you should find useful is making regular homemade yogurt and a vegan yogurt.
I also start out at the beginning with some thoughts on the idea of cultures passing their knowledge down from one culture to the next and how we nurture that relationship through time.
