Sandor Katz's Fermentation Journeys: Recipes, Techniques, and Traditions from around the World
by Sandor Ellix Katz

Published by Chelsea Green Publishing Co - November 2021 - Hardcover - 352 pp – 30cm x 17.5cm

From James Beard Award winner and New York Times–bestselling author of The Art of Fermentation: the recipes, processes, cultural traditions, and stories from around the globe that inspire Sandor Katz and his life’s work — a cookbook destined to become a modern classic essential for every home chef.

For the past two decades, fermentation expert and bestselling author Sandor Katz has traveled the world, both teaching and learning about the many fascinating and delicious techniques for fermenting foods. Wherever he’s gone, he has gleaned valuable insights into the cultures and traditions of local and indigenous peoples, whether they make familiar ferments like sauerkraut or less common preparations like natto and koji.

In his latest book, Sandor Katz’s Fermentation Journeys, Katz takes readers along with him to revisit these special places, people, and foods.

This cookbook goes far beyond mere general instructions and explores the transformative process of fermentation through:

  • Detailed descriptions of traditional fermentation techniques
  • Celebrating local customs and ceremonies that surround particular ferments
  • Profiles of the farmers, business owners, and experimenters Katz has met on his journeys

It contains over 60 recipes for global ferments, including:

  • Chicha de jora (Ecuador)
  • Misa Ono’s Shio-koji, or salt koji (Japan)
  • Doubanjiang (China)
  • Efo riro spinach stew (Nigeria)
  • Whole sour cabbages (Croatia)
  • Chucula hot chocolate (Colombia)

Sandor Katz’s Fermentation Journeys reminds us that the magical power of fermentation belongs to everyone, everywhere. Perfect for adventurous foodies, armchair travellers, and fermentation fanatics who have followed Katz’s work through the years — from Wild Fermentation to The Art of Fermentation to Fermentation as Metaphor — this book reflects the enduring passion and accumulated wisdom of this unique man, who is arguably the world’s most experienced and respected advocate of all things fermented.

‘There is perhaps nobody more broadly knowledgeable and contagiously curious about the world’s fermentation traditions than the effervescent Sandor Katz.’ — Civil Eats

 

Sandor Ellix Katz is a fermentation revivalist. A self-taught experimentalist who lives in rural Tennessee, his explorations in fermentation developed out of his overlapping interests in cooking, nutrition, and gardening. He is the author of four previous books: Wild FermentationThe Revolution Will Not Be Microwaved, The Art of Fermentation — which won a James Beard Foundation Award in 2013 — and Fermentation as Metaphor. The hundreds of fermentation workshops he has taught around the world have helped catalyse 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.
