Peoples' republic of fermentation

People's Republic of Fermentation with Sandor Katz

Sandor Katz calls himself a fermentation Revivalist. Even as the world's leading expert in fermentation he up until a few years ago knew relatively little about the varied fermentation traditions of China.  So, he traveled to China in November-December 2016 in order to learn about fermentation practices there. He traveled with his friend Mara King, her mother Judy, and another friend, Mattia Sacco Botto, who documented their travels on video. Apart from Katz, they all speak Mandarin and English, and shared his fermentation and broader food interests. These eight videos, made by Mattia Sacco Botto, document some of what they saw and learned on their journey.

                                                                                    Here is Episode One: Mrs. Ding's Pickles

Episode Two: A Taste of the Countryside

Episode Three: Chili Bean Paste, At The Heart Of Flavor!

Episode Four: Dong-style Fish And Meat Fermentation

Episode Five: Mijiu Rice Alcohol, Distilled Knowledge

Episode Six: The Tofu Maker

Episode Seven: Of Course There's Cheese In China!

Episode Eight: South Of The Clouds, Back To The Land
