For a long time already, vodka has been more than just Russia and Poland's national drink. From Asia and Great-Britain to the United States: this fire water has conquered the world and is now the most sold spirit internationally. The term 'fire water' refers to its most distinguishable quality: a neutral spirit, without smell and with a pure taste. It turned vodka also into a barkeeper's best friend and the basis of every Cosmopolitan, Moscow Mule or Bloody Mary.
The Keto Cure 1 is one of Belgium's best-selling cookbooks. Pascale Naessens believes that this book owes its success to the fact that keto really does work. Most people following a keto diet lose weight - without going hungry - while still eating delicious food. The Keto Cure 2 takes this theme further: why do you lose weight? How does it work? What role do fats play, and how much fat are we allowed to eat? Topics such as saturated fats, cholesterol, intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating are also discussed in depth by experts. In the second part of the book, you can put the theory into practice. You will find a complete 14-day meal plan plus additional recipes: a total of 75 delicious recipes prepared with natural wholefood ingredients and plenty of vegetables. And you can still enjoy these tasty low-carb recipes even if you're not following a keto diet.

"An indispensable manual for home cooks and pro chefs." -Wired
At Noma-four times named the world's best restaurant-every dish includes some form of fermentation, whether it's a bright hit of vinegar, a deeply savoury miso, an electrifying drop of garum, or the sweet intensity of black garlic.
Fermentation is one of the foundations behind Noma's extraordinary flavour profiles. Now Rene Redzepi, chef and co-owner of Noma, and David Zilber, the chef who runs the restaurant's acclaimed fermentation lab, share never-before-revealed techniques to creating Noma's extensive pantry of ferments. And they do so with a book conceived specifically to share their knowledge and techniques with home cooks.
With more than 500 step-by-step photographs and illustrations, and with every recipe approachably written and meticulously tested, The Noma Guide to Fermentation takes readers far beyond the typical kimchi and sauerkraut to include koji, kombuchas, shoyus, misos, lacto-ferments, vinegars, garums, and black fruits and vegetables. And-perhaps even more important-it shows how to use these game-changing pantry ingredients in more than 100 original recipes. Fermentation is already building as the most significant new direction in food (and health).
With The Noma Guide to Fermentation, it's about to be taken to a whole new level.
