Fermented Foods for Health


Whether you are 7 or 77, klutzy with a knife or a gourmet chef, you can learn to make sauerkraut – a fermented probiotic-rich food that’s delicious, easy to make and can do wonders for your health!

With the help of my photo-rich teaching recipe to guide you through the process, in just 7 days you can be enjoying sauerkraut that you made all by yourself - almost. We do have to give credit to the trillions of lactic acid bacteria that transform your salty cabbage into sour sauerkraut. :-)

Your One Stop Destination for Learning How to Make Sauerkraut

Have NO Fear!

As far as I know, there has never been a documented case of food-borne illness from fermented vegetables. Risky is not a word I would use to describe vegetable fermentation. It is one of the oldest and safest technologies we have. - Fred Breidt, microbiologist, U.S. Department of Agriculture

Just One Satisfied Reader, of Over 200,000 that Have Checked Out My Recipe


Hi Holly ~ I just tasted your Sweet Garlic Sauerkraut after 3 weeks of fermenting... WOW...It was the best I have ever had. I have been making sauerkraut for over two years and never bothered to weigh or measure any ingredients, but this has been an eye-opener for me. I will never again make it without measuring. The taste, texture and CRUNCH of this was unbelievable. I could eat the whole jar by myself. Every time I go by the fridge, I take a forkful! Thank you so much for all your work and recipes. I can't wait to try them all!!
