Real Food Fermentation: Live Cultures In Your Kitchen
Cookbooks Food & Drink Reference Alternative Health Wholefood Education Probiotics Fermentation
Alex Lewin’s 2022 revised edition of Real Food Fermentation: Live Cultures In Your Kitchen is the modern gateway to transforming ordinary groceries into probiotic powerhouses without fancy gear or hard-to-find ingredients. In 200 heavily-illustrated pages, Lewin demystifies the ancient art of culturing, walking readers through safe, small-batch projects for vegetables, dairy, fruits, and beverages. Step-by-step photo sequences show exactly how to slice, salt, submerge, and store each ferment, while quick-reference charts for brine ratios, timing, and troubleshooting make the book as much a kitchen reference as a cookbook.
What sets this edition apart is its up-to-date food-safety science and Lewin’s “real-food” philosophy—every recipe relies on supermarket staples and teaches tasteful flavor variations (think curry-kraut, honey-orange kefir, or smoky chipotle carrots) so beginners and seasoned cooks stay inspired. The compact paperback lays flat on the counter, and the durable, wipe-clean cover stands up to brine splashes and daily use. At under 200 pages, it’s concise enough for a weekend read yet comprehensive enough to replace a shelf of fermentation manuals.
Because this copy is in very good condition from a smoke-free home, you receive a like-new textbook that hasn’t been kitchen-tested by someone else—no stains, no lingering odors, just crisp pages ready for your own notes. For health-minded shoppers searching “illustrated fermentation cookbook,” “probiotic foods guide,” or “how to make sauerkraut at home,” Real Food Fermentation delivers an all-in-one education and recipe collection that pays for itself after the first jar of tangy, gut-friendly veggies.
