Nourishing traditions

Nourishing Traditions is more than a cookbook; it is a detailed guide to traditional diets and nutrition.

The book dispels myths about low-fat diets and highlights the importance of animal fats, cholesterol, and traditional foods for optimal health.

It includes over 700 recipes and covers topics such as the proper preparation of whole grain products, the health benefits of sauces and gravies, and appropriate diets for babies and children.

The authors draw on the work of Dr. Weston Price, who studied the diets of isolated societies with excellent health outcomes.

The book is divided into sections that cover various aspects of traditional cooking and nutrition, including cultured dairy, fermented foods, and enzyme-enhanced condiments and beverages.
