Once thought to be the stuff of back-to-the-landers,
foraging has become a gourmet pastime, and there are a
growing number of wild-food classes in which experts teach
hungry folks how to spot the "food at our feet." Especially
fortunate are those of us who live along the Pacific Coast -
from the San Francisco Bay area to Puget Sound to Anchorage
- where the climate provides many a delicacy in our wild
(and not so wild) spaces. The Wild Table shares expert
advice on how to identify the good eats, harvest
responsibly, and create delicious meals with your finds.
Author Jennifer Hahn provides detailed field notes on more
than 40 species, including where to find them, which parts
are edible, and their best culinary uses. In addition to the
delectable recipes from well-known coastal chefs, readers
will also appreciate Hahn's intimate stories of reveling in
nature's bounty and Mac Smith's lush identification
photographs.
