The Noma Guide to Fermentation: Including koji, kombuchas, shoyus, misos, vinegars, garums, lacto-ferments, and black fruits and vegetables (Foundations of Flavor) (edition 2018)
New York Times Bestseller Named one of the Best Cookbooks of the Year by the Chicago Tribune, New York Times, Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Houston Chronicle, Esquire, GQ, Eater, and more /> Named one of the Best Cookbooks to Give as Gifts by Food & Wine, Bon Appétit, Esquire, Field & Stream, New York Magazine's The Strategist, The Daily Beast, Eater, Vogue, Business Insider, GQ, Epicurious, and more "An indispensable manual for home cooks and pro chefs." —Wired At Noma—four times named the world's best restaurant—every dish includes some form of fermentation, whether it's a bright hit of vinegar, a deeply savory miso, an electrifying drop of garum, or the sweet intensity of black garlic. Fermentation is one of the foundations behind Noma's extraordinary flavor profiles. Now René Redzepi, chef and co-owner of Noma, and David Zilber, the chef who runs the restaurant's acclaimed fermentation lab, share never-before-revealed techniques to creating Noma's extensive pantry of ferments. And they do so with a book conceived specifically to share their knowledge and techniques with home cooks. With more than 500 step-by-step photographs and illustrations, and with every recipe approachably written and meticulously tested, The Noma Guide to Fermentation takes readers far beyond the typical kimchi and sauerkraut to include koji, kombuchas, shoyus, misos, lacto-ferments, vinegars, garums, and black fruits and vegetables. And—perhaps even more important—it shows how to use these game-changing pantry ingredients in more than 100 original recipes. Fermentation is already building as the most significant new direction in food (and health). With The Noma Guide to Fermentation, it's about to be taken to a whole new level.
The Noma Guide to Fermentation: Including koji, kombuchas, shoyus, misos, vinegars, garums, lacto-ferments, and black fruits and vegetables (Foundations of Flavor)
Such a lovely book with big wonderful photos, lovely fungal and microbial artwork, an introduction to the hows, whys and history of each method of fermentation, then step-by-step instructions for a basic recipe, then ideas for using that ferment in your everyday kitchen cooking. Several more recipes of the same style fermentation using different ingredients, each with their own suggestions for use. I have to say that many of the recipes are not necessarily the way I would cook in my kitchen, but if I made a miso or shoyu from this book, I could happily figure out how to use them.
One recipe in particular made me long for my daddy to be alive so I could make it for him, although I will not be making it for myself anytime soon. When I was young, dad always called soy sauce "grasshopper juice" I think because grasshoppers insides have that color when smashed, maybe. Anyway, here in this book is a recipe for Grasshopper garum! The equivalent of grasshopper juice for sure. If there is ever a plague of grasshoppers (and this year why not?), I might try this, but I'm not going to buy bugs to make a sauce out of. ( )
