Wild Garlic Sauerkraut

A perfect way to extend wild garlic well beyond it’s season (if it lasts that long!), using lacto-fermentation. In a nod to Nikki’s Czech roots, we’ve opted for caraway seeds to help bring a citrus & anise flavour. You could use any foraged or shop bought spice of your liking.

Crispy Puffball

A foragers take on the pub classic! If you’re British, and were around in the 90s, breaded deep-fried button mushrooms were most likely on the menu at your local pub. And, guilty as I feel, I love them. The puffball have an almost mozzarella like texture. Delicious!

Moroccan Beach Rose Spice

3 things we love… 1) Moroccan food. 2) Beautifully scented beach rose petals. 3) Moroccan food.

It seemed an apt way to combine those three loves in to one thing. The beach rose [Rosa Rugosa], is the absolute best for scented rose petals in our opinion. We used a half and half mix of both foraged and cultivated 'french rose' so we left some for others to pick. But, if they're abundant in your area. Go the full hog!
