Fermentation as Metaphor - A Conversation with Sandor Katz

How can we repair our connection with what we eat, rejoining the
biological web that we are a part of? In this conversation,
fermentation expert Sandor Katz unpacks his book Fermentation as
Metaphor, guiding us through the lessons taught by microorganisms
as they change form. Exploring how our fear of the other, the
unseen, and the unknowable has divorced us from the wonder of
fermentation, Sandor shows us how engaging with microbial
communities through food—breads, fungi, pickles, yogurts—can bring
us into relationship with the tiny but vital unseen forces of the
living world. Read the transcript. Learn more about your ad
