Preserving Food without Freezing or Canning
More than 250 easy and enjoyable recipes! "The methods here [will] inspire us with their resourcefulness, their promise of goodness, and with the idea that we can eat well year around."—Deborah Madison Over 100,00 copies sold! Typical books about preserving garden produce nearly always assume that modern "kitchen gardeners" will boil or freeze their vegetables and fruits. Yet here is a book that goes back celebrating traditional but little-known French techniques for storing and preserving edibles in ways that maximize flavor and nutrition. Translated into English, and with a new foreword by Deborah Madison, this book deliberately ignores freezing and high-temperature canning in favor of m...

Alcoholic drinks and mixtures made from natural ingredients
This book is about brewing in general—not just making beer but having fun fermenting all kinds of delicious concoctions with whatever we find on offer from nature, be that the wilderness or our backyards or gardens. We’re talking odd, wild, and primitive beers, sodas, herbal meads, inebriating (or not) infusions, and many other types of fermented drinks that are sometimes hard to classify. It’s about exploring boozy possibilities in creative ways, the way humans have for a very long time. What’s not to like about that? My big discovery when working on this book was the fact that brewing is really a continuous, linear activity. We like to chop up this creative line into small, discret...
Not Like a Lady
Letty’s lost everything but one friend, and her horse. She desperately needs to convince the fierce baronet to buy any horse but hers. Now she's causing her own problems, because she cannot stop touching a man she'd been prepared to hate. Sir Michael Grantley is Roseford's new baronet, and a salty ex-sailor who lost half a leg in the war. He's desperate to ride again - but for that he needs a biddable horse. He's not prepared for the horse to come with an independent young woman who decides that the key to her future is helping him ride again. The last think Michael needs is a wife, and Letty has never been anything like a lady. Neither of them can resist the one person they ought to refus...
The Wildcrafting Brewer
Primitive beers, country wines, herbal meads, natural sodas, and more "Baudar has elevated the concept of terroir into the realm of extreme beverages, both fermented and unfermented. His book brings to life the innovative quest of the Palaeolithic shaman/healer/brewer."--Patrick E. McGovern, author of Ancient Brews Fermentation fans and home brewers can rediscover "primitive" drinks and their unique flavors in The Wildcrafting Brewer. Wild-plant expert and forager Pascal Baudar's first book, The New Wildcrafted Cuisine, opened up a whole new world of possibilities for readers wishing to explore and capture the flavors of their local terroir. The Wildcrafting Brewer does the same for fermente...
LASTING SOLUTION TO OIL-AND-FOOD CRISES
Since the mid-1980s or even earlier, the global economy has continuously been plagued by one energy and food crisis or another. The ups and downs of the energy industry and market buoy and bubble along with food commoditiy prices. Every slight movement backwards or forward of crude features impacts food commodity prices on which the poor as well as the rich depend on for survival. This umbilical link between oil prices and food prices tortures our swelling populations, especially those in poor, underdeveloped countries. LASTING SOLUTIONS TO OIL-AND-FOOD PRICES is a bold attempt to address permanent solutions to this appalling situation. More ideas are needed, and much more bolder action. tWe must tackle these perpetual oil-and-food problems. Our populations keep increasing.Many teeming mouths to feed. Your contribution is welcome. Thanks.

The New Wildcrafted Cuisine
Wild foods are increasingly popular, as evidenced by the number of new books about identifying plants and foraging ingredients, as well as those written by chefs about culinary creations that incorporate wild ingredients (Noma, Faviken, Quay, Manreza, et al.). The New Wildcrafted Cuisine, however, goes well beyond both of these genres to deeply explore the flavors of local terroir, combining the research and knowledge of plants and landscape that chefs often lack with the fascinating and innovative techniques of a master food preserver and self-described “culinary alchemist.” Author Pascal Baudar views his home terrain of southern California (mountain, desert, chaparral, and seashore) as...
Fresh Food from Small Spaces
Books on container gardening have been wildly popular with urban and suburban readers, but until now, there has been no comprehensive "how-to" guide for growing fresh food in the absence of open land. Fresh Food from Small Spaces fills the gap as a practical, comprehensive, and downright fun guide to growing food in small spaces. It provides readers with the knowledge and skills necessary to produce their own fresh vegetables, mushrooms, sprouts, and fermented foods as well as to raise bees and chickens—all without reliance on energy-intensive systems like indoor lighting and hydroponics. Readers will learn how to transform their balconies and windowsills into productive vegetable gardens,...
