Whitsitt has a profound understanding on how massive amounts of chemical fertilizers are harmful to the rich soil that is America’s major natural resource and on our bodies. Her recipes are easy to follow and confidence building for a cook attempting to ferment the bounty of nature, making her narrative as much a cookbook and guide to fermentation well worth having handy in the kitchen.
