Traditional Cooking Books

Inevitably, mistakes are made, and here’s the page where I list the known mistakes in The Complete Idiot's Guide to Fermenting Foods.

If you find an error not listed here, please contact me so I can review it and include it!

The underlined word or words are the word or words that should be corrected, updated, or added.

page 23 — 1983 should be 1893

page 81 — Preservation Pointer: Marilyn should be spelled as Marillyn

page 106 — Pear-Ginger Fruit Leather: 1/4 cup unrefined sweetener

page 119 — Variation: Use 1-1/2 cups sea salt per gallon of water for the brine.

page 207 — Impossible Brownies: 1/4 cup salted butter, lightly melted

page 210 — No-Knead Sourdough Bread, Step 8: Move on to Step 9.

page 216 — Olive and Feta Swirl Bread: ingredients should include 1/4 cup sliced olives
Step 2 should say “Sprinkle with feta cheese, olives, za’atar or thyme, and sea salt.”

page 245 — Chocolate-n-Honey Sour Cream Ice Cream: 3 pastured egg yolks

Thanks for your patience and help in keeping this book accurate!

Happy fermenting,
