Sandor Ellix Katz, winner of a James Beard Award and New York Times bestselling author, whom Michael Pollan calls the “Johnny Appleseed of Fermentation” returns to his iconic, bestselling book with a fresh perspective, renewed enthusiasm, and expanded wisdom from his travels around the world. This self-described fermentation revivalist is perhaps best known simply as Sandorkraut, which describes his joyful and demystifying approach to making and eating fermented foods, the health benefits of which have helped launch a nutrition-based food revolution. Since its original publication, and aided by Katz’s engaging and fervent workshop presentations, Wild Fermentation has inspired people to turn their kitchens into food labs: fermenting vegetables into sauerkraut, milk into cheese or yogurt, grains into sourdough bread, and much more. In turn, they’ve traded batches, shared recipes, and joined thousands of others on a journey of creating healthy food for themselves, their families, and their communities. Katz’s work earned him the Craig Clairborne lifetime achievement award from the Southern Foodways Alliance, and he has been called “one of the unlikely rock stars of the American food scene” by The New York Times . This updated and revised edition, now with full color photos throughout, is sure to introduce a whole new generation to the flavors and health benefits of fermented foods. It features many brand-new recipes, including: Strawberry Kvass African Sorghum Beer Infinite Buckwheat Bread And many more! Updates on original recipes also reflect the author’s ever-deepening knowledge of global food traditions. For Katz, his gateway to fermentation was sauerkraut. So open this book to find yours, and start a little food revolution right in your own kitchen! “A solid reference library will take you a long way in the fermentation game. By law (or just about), the first book in it should be the recently revised edition of Wild Fermentation by Sandor Katz. It provides know-how, recipes, [and] you-can-do-it spunk.”— Wired Magazine More praise for Sandor Ellix Katz and his books : “ The Art of Fermentation is an extraordinary book, and an impressive work of passion and scholarship.”—Deborah Madison, author of Local Flavors “The fermenting bible.”— Newsweek “In a country almost clinically obsessed with sterilization Katz reminds us of the forgotten benefits of living in harmony with our microbial relatives.”— Grist Review: A very engaging book on fermentation - Some books have a good information, but are boring.

I have been fermenting in home for many, many years but not as large a scope of variety as i will now..... and with less stress to preciseness of yeast and percentages of contents. I was bold enough after reading part of the book to ferment the pulp and seeds (pulp left on the seeds) from my wild persimmion harvest to produce a rather flavorful vinegar that developed a mother within 2 weeks . Used a 5 gallon crock. ALSO, it is an ENTERTAINING read with GREAT pictures and illustrations!!! GREAT BOOK!!!! Thanks Sandor Katz for your contribution to all of life ## Frequently Bought Together - Wild Fermentation: The Flavor, Nutrition, and Craft of Live-Culture Foods, 2nd Edition - The Art of Fermentation: New York Times Bestseller - The Noma Guide to Fermentation: Including koji, kombuchas, shoyus, misos, vinegars, garums, lacto-ferments, and black fruits and vegetables (Foundations of Flavor) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/33858625-wild-fermentation-the-flavor-nutrition-and-craft-of-live-culture](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/33858625-wild-fermentation-the-flavor-nutrition-and-craft-of-live-culture) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
