Video: How to Preserve Foods with Fermentation

Kimchi, sauerkraut and pickles are perhaps the most common forms of fermented snack, and within each there are countless variations in taste and style. Beyond being a tasty enhancement to any meal, they also provide helpful bacteria for your stomach that aids in digestion. If that wasn't enough, fermenting vegetables is also one of the easiest forms of food preservation there is — so you can make the most of the local harvest year round.

For years Sandor Katz has traveled the world educating the public on the benefits of home fermentation. Through his workshops, he teaches people how safe and easy it is to become an active participant in the food production process.

This video is a short excerpt of his workshop. If you have a chance to attend any of his classes in person they are highly recommended. Check his Website for details and additional information.
