It looks likely that this winter is going to be filled with coughs, colds, flu and the coronavirus. The social distancing, mask wearing, extra hand washing and of course lockdowns meant that last year many of the usual seasonal viruses such as flu and respiratory…

Heat-loving crops like tomatoes, cucumbers and chilies are in their prime now. Even aubergines and peppers, which are imported to the UK all year round, can be found growing in British greenhouses and veg gardens this month. Make August meals al fresco. Start with delicate scallops, then fire up the grill and barbecue sea bass, homemade burgers or courgettes. Finish with a simple plate of ripe apricots.
I’ll be making an effort this month to post lots of seasonal recipes for you, and I’m working on a free recipe book with whole food recipes using the best of this month’s ingredients.
Until tomorrow,

Probiotics are micro-organisms, or live bacteria, that are believed to have a positive impact on your health when consumed. The World Health Organization‘s 2001 definition of probiotics is “live micro-organisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host”. There are hundreds…
I wanted to introduce you to something fascinating (but slightly stomach-churning!) that you may want to investigate further as it shows some promise for helping those with autoimmune disease. Helminth replacement is a form of probiotic therapy also known as worm therapy, helminth therapy…
I have been trying hard to do lots of foraging through July and I have been trying to include wild foods in my diet everyday.
Wild foods are incredibly nutrient-dense and also have delicious and unique flavours.
Including wild foods in my diet helps me increase the diversity of my diet too, which benefits the gut microbiome.
Plus, foraging for wild foods gives you nutritious, seasonal, organic and local food – which is expensive to buy – for free!
Here’s a photo of some wild plants I foraged recently. From top left you can see Ground Elder, below is unopened Common Hogweed flower buds (which I wrote about recently), Dandelion, Plantain, Mallow and Smooth Sow Thistle.
The Common Hogweed flower buds can be cooked like broccoli florets. Peel off the papery sheaths covering the buds, and then steam or boil for just a few minutes.
They are delicious served simply as a side vegetable with lots of butter, salt and pepper.
Ground Elder is in the same family as carrot, so I added this Ground Elder to a ‘couscous’ I made from carrots. This is super-easy to make, simply add a couple of carrots to a food processor along with the Ground Elder and blitz until you have a couscous-like consistency. I also added some fresh parsley, and then I dressed it with lemon, extra-virgin olive oil and salt and pepper.
For salad dressings I like to use a good quality, high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil such as this one.
The Plantain leaves can be a bit tough to eat raw, so I chopped them up finely and fried them with mushrooms for breakfast.
The other greens like Dandelion, Mallow and Smooth Sow Thistle make perfect salad greens. Dandelion leaves contain prebiotic fibres which are food for beneficial gut microbes.
Do you enjoy foraging? Comment below what are your favourite ways to eat wild greens!
