Okay, this whole food adventure happened because of a show about food that led me to a book that is all about fermentation! The show that I stumbled on was "The Bear", the quirkiest, craziest show about chefs? restaurant business? food? Umm...not actually sure but it was totally fun to watch.
Anyways at one point one of the restaurant employees wanders in totally engrossed with a thick cook book in hand. A quick screen grab and some furious searching later, I realized it was a real life cookbook, The Noma Guide to Fermentation. Wow. I had to get my grubby little hands on that book!
Once I finally managed to wrangle a copy of the book I gobbled away at it and here is our first 'making' from the book, fermented gooseberries, tangy little bursts of intense flavor and texture. I've never pickled fruit before. Aren't they beautiful?!
