Reviews of The Book

"What an exciting new resource for fermentation enthusiasts! This book opens the door to amazing culinary adventures and incomparable umami flavors."
- Sandor Ellix Katz, author of "The Art of Fermentation" and "Wild Fermentation"

"The Shockeys have put together a thorough and masterful work that builds on the theme that education and knowledge are essential. There's beauty in the idea that you have to share ferments to make them. Because you have to share knowledge, too, to create it. And within these pages, you'll find a wealth of it."
- David Zilber, co-author of "The Noma Guide to Fermentation"
