Cultured Food for Health: A Guide to Healing Yourself with Probiotic Foods Kefir * Kombucha * Cultured Vegetables

Donna Schwenk is one of the most well-known names in the new world of fermenting. I've brewed my own kombucha and kefir for a few years now, and Donna's site is always one I refer to when I have a fermenting problem.
Donna's newest book details the benefits of fermented drinks and foods for our health – and how to make them for yourself! Even though I'm no stranger to fermenting, I still found myself learning from this book. Donna's "trifecta" of ferments to get a varied amount of probiotics in daily is something I hadn't heard of before. I knew it's important to get a variety of cultures in, but I never thought to approach it that way.
She also includes a lot of recipes to make your "plain" ferments into culinary treats – I didn't have a chance to try them all, but we loved the ones we did try!
This book is definitely a must for anyone pursuing better health – research has proven again and again how our micro biome is linked to everything from allergies to Parkinson's disease! No matter what your experience with fermenting and cooking with ferments is, you'll have cultures bubbling away in no time with Donna's simple instructions.
I received a copy of this book from NetGalley, it did not influence my opinion in this review.
