Synopsis

Hunter Gather Cook: Adventures in Wild Food

While there's no doubt the world is a very different place to how it was 10,000 years ago, some things have remained the same. We are still hunter-gatherers, just like our ancestors. Our minds and bodies are designed to survive and thrive, allowing us to forage in highly complex, varied, and ingenious ways. We can observe the landscape around us and use it to our advantage, making fire and tools for hunting and fishing. But while most of us ignore our innate skills, choosing to forage for food in supermarkets, there are a growing number of people who are rejecting this in favour of reconnecting with past ways. They’re learning how to really enjoy their food from start to finish by creating the means to do so. They are growing their own vegetables, curing, preserving, brewing, even raising livestock. They are 21st-century hunter-gatherers. If, like them, you're uninspired by the mundanity of the weekly shop, care about where your food comes from, and wish to add excitement to the necessity of feeding and watering yourself, then this book is for you.

Contents include:

• Cold Smoking
• The Underground Oven
• Self-Feeding Fire
• Slow Cooking
• Butchering
• Carpaccio

AND SO MUCH MORE!!!

It aims to set you on a fulfilling, lifelong path of culinary adventures and food DIY and show you how to embrace the lifestyle that surrounds the 21st-century hunter-gatherer. It will make wild food accessible to you and take away any sense of trepidation at making your first brew, burger, or carpaccio.

And if you're already a 21st-century hunter-gatherer, then it will help you to expand your culinary repertoire, taking your experimentation and enjoyment to the next level.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Nick Weston specialised in Hunter-gatherer Studies and the Mesolithic as part of his Archaeology degree. On completion, he was selected by Channel 4 to be the Survival Expert for Shipwrecked , which involved spending three months in the Cook Islands teaching the islanders how to build shelters, hunt and gather food. When he returned he built a treehouse and lived off the land for six months. A book about his experiences, The Treehouse Diaries, was published in 2010. Since then, he has written for numerous publications and set up a successful company, Hunter Gather Cook, which is a school for foraging, butchery, cooking and bushcraft.
