Mer om författaren

Sandor Ellix Katz is a fermentation revivalist. A self-taught experimentalist who lives in rural Tennessee, his explorations in fermentation developed out of overlapping interests in cooking, nutrition, and gardening. He is the author of Wild Fermentation and The Art of Fermentation, which was a New York Times bestseller and won a James Beard Foundation award in 2013--as well as the forthcoming Fermentation as Metaphor (October 2020). The hundreds of fermentation workshops he has taught around the world have helped catalyze a broad revival of the fermentation arts. The New York Times calls Sandor “one of the unlikely rock stars of the American food scene.” For more information, check out his website www.wildfermentation.com.

Recensioner i media

Library Journal-This is not a line-by-line recipe cookbook, but it contains detailed instructions on fermenting (or creating via fermentation) nearly every imaginable food or beverage. After a foreword by Michael Pollan, Katz ("Wild Fermentation") explores the scientific basis of fermentation, then gives details for creating everything from yogurts to prosciutto to wines, beer, and kombucha. He emphasizes how fermentation influenced human development. Used to preserve food, it affected human biology so that humans could eat foods that would be poisonous otherwise, and it had an impact on global human culture as a reflection of indigenous cultural identity. Simply put, fermentation allows lactic acid bacteria naturally found in the air to overcome and exclude bacteria that are harmful to humans, and it increases advantageous chemical compounds, such as vitamins, in the process. There is a generous photo section of tools, containers, and processes; along with fascinating electron microscope photos of bacteria, which convey a sense of wonder at the unseen world of fermentation. VERDICT: Katz takes fermentation down to the molecular level while keeping it conversational and accessible to the generalist. Fermentation foodies will be ecstatic.

  1. 5/5 Miguel F

    It has all the information you need to get started fermenting and it is written and a fun in a interesting way.

  2. 5/5 S. F

    Pleasant mix of passionate storytelling of history, and practical applications of fermentation with the resources you have available. Opiniated but great, very entertaining and easy read.

  3. 5/5 Nils

    Jag har lyssnat på "The art of fermentation" som ljudbok, men författaren själv (antar jag) som uppläsare. Man blir verkligen sugen på att testa! Väldigt mycket inspiration och information och i god proportion.

  4. 5/5 Folke G

    Denna bok tar upp allt (så vitt jag vet) om olika jäsningsprocesser, från surdeg till mixmaltering! Verkligen att rekommendera för självhushållaren som vill kunna göra allt själv!
