腌制和保存 Fermentation and Preservation: The Nordic Technical Foundation

Nordic fermentation and preservation is the world's most extensive cold-climate food preservation system — developed over millennia of necessity in a climate where winter killed the fresh food supply for months at a time. The Nordic tradition encompasses lacto-fermentation, acid pickling, dry-salting, cold-smoking, wind-drying, and the specific fat-based preservation methods of the reindeer and seal-hunting cultures.
