With “Kombucha selbst gemacht”, Alexandra Klein takes us into the fascinating world of Kombucha brewing. This book is a real treasure trove for anyone who wants to learn more about fermented drinks and creative kombucha recipes. In just 120 pages, the author manages to give a sound introduction to the production of the probiotic drink and at the same time present numerous inspiring recipes for drinks, dishes and even beauty treatments.
We particularly like the practical approach. From the care of the scoby (“Symbiotic Cultures of Bacteria and Yeast”) to step-by-step instructions, getting started with kombucha brewing is made as easy as possible. Whether strawberry-peppermint kombucha, lavender-pear or something unusual like kombucha hummus – the recipes are creative, versatile and invite you to try them out.
The beauty aspect is also surprising and innovative: Kombucha as a base for a face mask? This shows once again how versatile this drink is. Alexandra Klein combines her in-depth knowledge as a professional chef with her flair for herbs and natural ingredients, giving the book a personal and authentic touch.
