Fermentation is an amazing process which produces flavors that are unobtainable in any other way. Flavors range from sweet to sour to umami. Entire populations have relied on fermentation as a form of preservation before refrigeration .Many cultures believe fermented foods and beverages are the key to longevity and happiness in life. Health benefits are ample and our society is embracing fermented foods more and more each and every day.
