Great video. Regarding dandelion root: cut them up and put them in cold water for a couple of hours, the bitterness will go away completely and the inulin will stay inside. If boiled the bitterness will go away in 10 minutes but the inulin is soluble in hot water and will leach into the water as well. Putting the cut up roots in cold water is the better method if you want to keep the inulin :) cheers

You're talking about mosphila Get them before the worms Having said that, if your in a situation they would just be extra protein. Not that I agree with the eet zee bugz agenda.

This is a very good introduction to foraging. I have foraged in many parts of Europe and New Guinea as well as Australia where I currently live. I teach basic bushcraft and wilderness survival in South Australia, and have done so in Victoria, the Snowy Mountains, coastal New South Wales and Far North Queensland, which are all very different environments. However, something all of these areas have in common is a generous supply of European weeds. Plus Australia has its own edible wild plants and fungi. Our native nettle, wattle seed and muntries are delicious. And wherever European timber or ornamental trees have been planted one can also find European wild fungi. While some of these such as fly agaric and death cap are a serious hazard, there are others such as the saffron milk cap and many boletes that are very good to eat. With fungi even more than with weeds, correct identification is essential. We also have both European and native morels. Do you know that many of the food plants you mention, such as burdock, dandelion, crab apple, hawthorn, elder and blackberry, can be used to make alcoholic drinks? I brew a good crab apple melomel. And the leaves of fireweed, if partially fermented and then dried in the same manner as ordinary camellia tea, make a tasty and refreshing black tea? Plus a number of edible plants such as Bellis perennis, (the English Daisy or bairnwort,) nettle and dock also have medicinal properties? It is an endlessly fascinating subject.

"you don't find the blackberry, the blackberry finds you" lol, yeah it's found me countless times lol, brilliant video and very informative, thanks :o)

This was one of the best plant identification videos that made it relevant and I recognized the plants. Also offering what to do with what parts, what the plant offers and the taste too? Loved the garlic mustard. Must have been in every kitchen garden in Victorian days. Victorian gardens etc. Great research, editing. Now finally I could say oh THATS what that is? I could be eating that? Ohh. So great. I'm a woman who lives for expanding my survival knowledge. I was even a boy Scout (co-ed at 13). Just so I could get real camping and other training. Now I'm 46 and as much a kid as ever. My son is grown, (after a while it wasn't cool to have adventures with mom). Time to have adventures AGAIN!!! Hack, he and his girl may wanna go! I can show him about these neat plants you taught me!!!!!

This is by far the best video explaining wild edibles I have seen yet. I have been on a binge for this subject for the last 2 days this is the best

Thanks so much Alfie, that was a BRILLIANT, concise and very informative explanation bless you!

Great video! I recommend to anyone wanting to expand their knowledge of edible and medicinal wild plants to invest in a pocket journal. This will be a great reference for when your’e out and about learning. Take your time to get familiar with a specific plant, take notes on habitat and characteristics, and draw pictures. Once you become familiar with a plant or tree, even on a spiritual level, identification will never leave you. It will be no different then walking by red peppers or lettuce in a grocery store.
