Sandor Ellix Katz is a self-taught fermentation experimentalist and cultural revivalist. He wrote Wild Fermentation: The Flavor, Nutrition, and Craft of Live-Culture Foods—which Newsweek called “the fermenting bible”—in order to share the fermentation wisdom he had learned, and demystify home fermentation.

The talk about his new book will integrate Katz’s hands-on work in the kitchen with the science of bacteria and its role in ancient food cultures. He will address the role bacterial culture can play in rebuilding American culture in a movement toward food sovereignty. By participating in food production and the lost art of fermentation, we can reclaim our food and with it power, dignity, and a complex web of biological, social, and economic relationships.
