The Art of Fermentation - an Evening with Sandor Katz

Past event
Jul 21, 2014, 7 to 9 PM

Join us for an evening of bubbly concoctions and an in-depth look into the world of friendly microbes with the fermentation revivalist himself—Sandor Katz! Learn about the healing qualities and nutritional importance of live-culture ferments, as well as their illustrious history and integral role in human evolution. You’ll also learn how simple it is to make your own healthful kimchi, kefir, and other fermented delicacies at home. Be part of the fermentation revival!

Copies of Sandor’s book, The Art of Fermentation (Chelsea Green, 2012), will be available for sale and signing.

“For me, fermentation is a health regimen, a gourmet art, a multicultural adventure, a form of activism and a spiritual path, all rolled into one.” - Sandor Katz

About Sandor Katz:
Sandor Ellix Katz is a fermentation revivalist.

A self-taught experimentalist who lives in rural Tennessee, the New York Times calls him “one of the unlikely rock stars of the American food scene.” His latest book, The Art of Fermentation (2012), received a James Beard award.
