Since ancient times dating as far back as 7000 BCE, people have worked with the natural process and science of fermentation to create special foods and beverages. From wine, beer, ciders to yogurt, bread, cheese, and pickled vegetables such as kimchi, fermentation is a part of global cuisines throughout Asia, Europe, Africa, the Americas, the Middle East, and Oceania. Today, with a heightened passion for food and a deepened understanding of the fermentation process, the culinary world begins a new chapter of fermented foods.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meju \/ Photo Credit: jskult.tistory.com The Science of Fermentation What is Fermentation?
