Superfood for the Gut

  • Fermenting is simple and healthy
  • Classic local vegetables fermented with Asian spices
  • Second edition of the book first published by Kneipp Verlag

Fermentation is an ancient technique: for thousands of years, foods have been lacto-fermented. This makes them keep longer, easier to digest and good for health. The healing power of fermented vegetables is known in many cultures, because it supports a healthy gut flora. Fermented foods strengthen our defences and protect against many illnesses.

Fermenting also creates new taste experiences, since the creative use of herbs, spices and ingredients keeps producing new recipes.

The author shows even complete beginners how simple fermenting is. After a compact general introduction and information on the health benefits of fermented foods, there are 30 recipes for fermenting classic local vegetables with exotic (Asian) spices.
