Year of Plenty: Traditional Foodways
Helping you become more resilient through food. We are more disconnected from our food and drink than ever before! Generational cooking skills and food traditions are slowly withering away, and many of us have no idea where our food is coming from. We explore topics such as food resilience, nutrition, hunting, foraging, homesteading, regenerative farming, and more. Gather around our table and learn how to take control of your food supply chain and fuel yourself with nutrient-dense food.
Year of Plenty: Traditional Foodways
Rosemary: The Herb of Remembrance
In this solo episode I explore Rosemary, one of my all-time favorite kitchen herbs. Rosemary has been used throughout history in cooking and has had many other cultural uses. I especially love the distinct flavor it adds to food. So if you ever wanted to learn about this herb, then this episode is for you!
Some topics discussed:
- Rosemary history, folklore and cultural uses
- How to prepare it in the kitchen and ideas for simple uses
- What is better dried or fresh rosemary?
