“An inspiring book for city dwellers who pine for the bounty of a countryside hedgerow` Sunday Times `A man after my own heart.` MARK HIX `That is the final act of the forager`s magic trick. To conjure a meal out of seemingly nothing, and ensure you never look the same way at a neglected green space again` The Telegraph Once you start foraging, you`ll never look at the city around you in the same way again. As we walk through the city with our headphones in or our eyes glued to screens, it`s easy to forget that we are surrounded by wonderful things to eat. Our parks, pathways, gardens and wild spaces are crammed full of delicious, nutrient-rich plants; all we need to know is how to find them. From dandelions to winter cress, wild garlic to chickweed and ground ivy to water mint, this book takes us through a year of delicious, foraged food. Each entry is illustrated in colour to help you identify the plant and followed by a recipe using these remarkable ingredients.In The Edible City, urban forager John Rensten gives us the tools to identify, source and cook delicious food from the year-long bounty around us, whether that`s nettle and three-cornered leek gnocchi, winter purslane pesto, or stinging nettle tempura. This account of a year of urban foraging is perfect for any nature lover or home cook looking for exciting new ingredients to experiment with.
