Bizarre Edible Plants
The Book
Joseph Simcox, the “Botanical Explorer”, and his team have been traveling the world for years in search of edible wild plants. On more than 500 expeditions, he has explored more than 140 countries, tracking down, documenting, and eating these plants in person.
Because of his efforts, hundreds of species of previously little-known plants are now cultivated and/or harvested in botanical gardens, nurseries, farms, and gardens worldwide. In this richly illustrated book“BIZARRE EDIBLE PLANTS – Unknown Delicacies, Vol. 1”.
Simcox publishes for the first time a fragment of his extraordinary findings. The original text was first published by Straight Books in Japanese. In this new English edition, Simcox introduces 72 stunning and little-known plants from around the world. He describes the location where he discovered each species, explains which part of the plant is edible (fruits, leaves, tubers), how it should be prepared, defines the flavor, and includes salient notes of interest about each of them.
Simcox’s book opens a window to a world of enormous delight, one that hints at a completely different path for the future of mankind: Diversity. Feast and be glad!
