/ck/ - Food & Cooking

As in the previous threads, this is all about the fermentation, long term storage, curing, home hooch concocting, and the general discussion of the life force we breed into our food and drink stuffs--which makes them not only delicious, but pretty damn good for you too. The informational links are a growing dialogue, so maybe post a link to something you found overly useful or very interesting and it might find a home in the below. Let's learn together.

I was the original creator of the FSG threads. Thanks for keeping it going. Been busy with work lately and haven't had time to make new threads. Got some new ferments in the works though.
