- Zusatztext
- We are used to going to the supermarket or to the green grocers to get our food, and often end up spending a hefty sum on shopping every week. But there is a whole world of wild ingredients out there just waiting to be found and included in our meals, and often at no expense to those adventurous enough to hunt them down. This informative text contains a detailed treatise on wild sources of food in Britain, with information on how to successfully locate and prepare them. A fascinating book sure to appeal to those with an interest in foraging and self-sufficient cookery, this book makes for a great addition to any culinary collection and is not to be missed by discerning food-enthusiasts looking to expand their culinary repertoire. Originally published in 1917, we are proud to republish this antique book now complete with a new introduction on the subject.
