Over the past fifteen years chef Alan Bergo has become one of the most exciting and resourceful culinary voices with millions seeking his guidance through his wildly popular website and video tutorials. Bergo's inventive culinary style is defined by his encyclopedic curiosity and his abiding root - to - flower passion for both wild and cultivated plants. The Forager Chef's Book of Flora demonstrates how understanding the different properties and growing phases of roots stems leaves and seeds can inform your preparation of something like the head of an immature sunflower as well as the lesser - used parts of common vegetables like broccoli or aubergine. As a society we ve forgotten this type of old - school knowledge including many brilliant culinary techniques that were born of thrift and necessity. For our own sake and that of our planet it's time we remembered. And in the process we can unlock new flavors from the abundant landscape around us.
