In this week’s episode of A Real Food Journey I called up Lisa, author of Lisa’s Counter Culture: Pickles and Other Well-Bred Foods. I cannot recommend the book enough, especially if you are struggling with ferments and losing time, money and patience on failed ferments. Lisa has got it down pat! Click here to visit Lisas Counter Culture and purchase her book. It gets the Real Food Journey Podcast double thumbs up!
In addition to chatting about ferments and gut heath, Lisa shared some recent experiences at her kid’s school and how she has been able to gently nudge some of her kid’s classmates in the real food direction! I chimed in with a little advice of my own as a child of a mom who never nudged the school very gently 🙂 Another great episode, I hope you enjoy. Click here to see the episode in Itunes.
