#75 - Sandor Katz: Wild Yeast, Small Food & The War On Bacteria

If you asked both Andrea and I who's inspired us the most we'd both put our guest today, Sandor Katz, right up there in our top couple of names. We've read his books, underlining phrase after phrase, we've taken his advice; we've made his ferments, so many of his ferments. He's inspired, educated, and hand-held us both through our food fermentation journeys.Coming up is a fascinating and informative conversation that covers what Sandor grows and ferments, safety and fermentation, wild starters versus commercial yeast and how you can utilise wild yeast in your ferments, the war on bacteria, the small food revolution and much more.Check out our aftershow conversation with Sandor! We talk about tibicos (water kefir) and milk kefir and why grains don't populate. You can get access and download by joining our patreon community at the Companionship level or above.
