Humans have been fermenting food and drinks for thousands of years. Fermentation is one of the oldest ways to preserve and transform food.
In this program, Philip Moscovitch, author of Adventures in Bubbles and Brine, will discuss what fermentation is and how it works. He'll share stories of Nova Scotia's fermentation traditions and ideas for projects to try at home.
Topics Philip will cover include: materials, techniques and safety in the context of making pickles and other fermented vegetables, kombucha, kimchi, sauerkraut, yogurt, and more.
