A guide to the edible opportunities of the amazing Atlantic coastline, covering coastal plants, shellfish, seaweed, and more, from one of the world's leading foraging experts

To the knowing eye, the coast is an incredible source of nutrition and flavors--from aromatic maritime herbs and succulent coastal vegetables to umami-rich seaweeds and gourmet shellfish. Join professional foraging guide and wild-food chef Mark Williams on a gastronomic and ecological journey through a dazzling range of coastal habitats, learning how to safely identify, sustainably harvest, and creatively cook coastal wild foods. The Atlantic coast is not just one habitat but a complex tapestry of ecosystems woven by the sea. Structured around these distinct habitats, such as salt marsh, shingle, cliffs, rocks, and the seashore, the book heroes the incredible range of edible species from each one. Featuring a mix of stunning illustrations from Sofia Iva and informative and evocative photographs, we learn how to identify, harvest, and use them in delicious ways. With recipes, seasonal tips, and fascinating personal stories from Williams's own wild and rugged coastal home in Scotland, you can discover the flavors and nourishing abundance of our shorelines.
