Purchase a Spiral Bound Print Cookbook

Lisa’s Counter Culture: Pickles and Other Well Bred Foods is available in Print or ebook formats or  get both at a discount! Order some for your friends and family too! This is not your typical cookbook. Over half the book is devoted to the art and science of fermentation with recipes covering everything from kefir to condiments. This is a conveniently sized spiral bound 6 inch by 9 inch softcover book that easily flats while you brew up your next ferment. I want this to a everyday part of your kitchen.

This is a comprehensive guide covering fermentation (with Pickl-It specific recipes) and a wide array of  nutrient dense foods that make up a healthy diet. All the recipes are gluten free. I cover details on sourcing your best bets for real food as well as detailed traditional recipes covering everything from bone broth, salads, meat, eggs, seafood, veggies, dehydrator and even treats. This is a collection of my best tried and true recipes.

Here’s a timely recipe for Watermelon Salsa!
