René Redzepi is the groundbreaking chef of Copenhagen’s Noma, arguably the most influential restaurant in the world. His new book, The Noma Guide to Fermentation, which he co-authored with David Zilber, director of the restaurant's fermenation lab, is a master tome on the technique that he believes is the future of the way we cook. Francis Lam and René talk about Noma’s exploration with fermentation and the restaurant's influence on the global palate, where Redzepi finds inspiration, and how he achieves an enjoyable work/life balance. Redzepi and Zilber also shared their fermentation recipes for Lacto Blueberries, Perry Vinegar and Roasted Chicken Wing Garum.
