Embracing Fermentation

Quote:
Cultured foods bring 'good' bacteria to our taste buds and tables

The human body carries more than 100 trillion bacteria - about 5 pounds' worth. In fact, there are more bacteria in your body than cells.

Scientists tell us that each of us has a unique bacteria "fingerprint" created by genes, environmental factors, medication and our daily menu. More scientists and health professionals are beginning to believe that this landscape of microflora in the human body may be the key to a person's health.

And eating fermented foods is a simple way to inoculate your body with good bacteria.

That might not fully explain why fermentation has become a hot culinary trend. But hot it is, with restaurants turning out fermented foods in their kitchens, and home fermentation classes and festivals springing up all over.

But what exactly is fermentation?
Journal-Sentinel article, with some recipes, here.

Found the article interesting, although I might be less adventurous than some.
