Concise Foraging Guide by Tiffany Francis-Baker

This practical pocket guide, published in association with the Wildlife Trusts, includes 194 edible fruits, nuts and seeds, flowers, greens and vegetables, herbs, roots, whole plants, fungi, seaweeds and shellfish that you can forage in the UK and Europe.

Each species account includes accurate artworks and concise descriptions outlining essential details to help you identify species in the field, as well as information on where you can find species and helpful tips on how to cook and bake with the food you forage.

The author's introduction offers practical advice on foraging safely and legally and outlines how to prepare and preserve your foraged foods, including making mead and jam, drying herbs, storing mushrooms for later use and how to safely prepare foraged shellfish.

A really handy overview to foraging – great for beginners or if you want to pop it into your pocket to reference during a walk-- Megan Shersby * Discover Wildlife *
