Fermup - The Fermented Food Podcast

Even thought salt water fish can’t jump out of the water and ferment themselves, with a little effort, humans have been preparing fermented fish sauces and pastes for thousands of years. This week we explore fermented fish and the flavor of umami. Do you think fish sauce is stinky? Are you afraid of MSG? Then this is the episode to listen to. We discuss fermented fish from different parts of the world and history. If you haven’t eaten or cooked with fermented fish before, then you might just be inspired to do so after listening to this conversation.
