Making Sauerkraut and Pickled Vegetables at Home: Creative Recipes for Lactic Fermented Food to Improve Your Health

Rating:
Summary: Marvellous
Review: A clear and simple guide to basic sauerkraut and brine pickles. The book does discuss health aspects of lactic acid fermentation, but what distinguishes this book in my mind is its clear description of the process. The authors leave you with enough understanding to experiment and troubleshoot for yourself. Great fun--my first couple of batches were consumed by German friends who had been forced to eat the pasturized stuff for too long.

Review: An extremely useful book for pickle lovers. Once you finish this book, you will be able to experiment a lot and rectify the mistakes yourself. This book also tells you about various diets and its effects on our life.

There is a lot of useful information in here to provide much thought about what to eat. There are also interesting references for wellness products. The author does suggest you go off coffee slowly before you start the plan. This would minimize headaches during detox. I couldn't wait to get started so, of course, did it all at once and had the most horrible awful headache for 4 straight days. I finally broke down and had a 1/2 cup coffee one day instead of taking aspirin and that did the trick...for the moment. Now I'm completely caffeine-free and don't miss it at all. My doctor prescribed a wonderful replacement for coffee made from soya beans called "soyffee". I bought it online at www.S o y c o f f e e.com and cannot believe how good it tastes.
