"There have been a lot of cookbooks on fermentation and pickling
that have come out in the past few years, but this one feels like
it adds something new to the conversation - new vegetables I've
never thought about pickling, new combinations of spices and
seasonings I've never thought to try, and new ideas for using these
fermented veggies every day." - TheKitchn.com
"This book is great. It is very accessible and will gently guide
nervous first-time fermenters through the process. Yet it also
delves deep, exploring different types of vessels, different
vegetables and styles, and will inspire experienced fermenters with
new ideas." - Sandor Ellix Katz, author of The Art of Fermentation

demystifies the trickier aspects of fermenting at home and gives us
all the tools we need to confidently go forth with our own

perfect for using up those stray bits left in the fridge or an
overly-abundant CSA share, and they show us that pickling can be a
part of our everyday cooking. - Emma Christensen, recipe editor for
