“We’ll get back to what’s important in a little bit once we’ve had a look at that bee” I think this one sentence captures exactly what I love about your channel. Pausing for those little wonderful things about life.

Thanks for the video. I was diagnosed with ADHD last year and lately have been focusing more on the media I consume. I’ve always enjoyed your videos, but today I’m mindfully noticing that your chill foraging and outdoor videos set a much healthier tone for my day than other stuff I watch. Yesterday I watched your recent video where you mentioned comment positivity and it really fits with the new attitude I’m trying to go with. So thanks again, I appreciate you a ton, and look forward to many more of your adventures.

That dead white nettle reminds me of a plant from my childhood. We used to pick the little white flowers and suck the nectar from their base

One thing I really enjoy about your cooking content is the "That's about right" approach. I think a lot of cooking information online get far too detailed. Its useful to have information, but you can make a lot of very good food by just experimenting and getting a feeling for it.
Here in Poland we make sorrel soup called Szczawiowa (sorrel= szczaw) it's made on meat/veggie stock with potatoes cream and halved eggs are added directly on plate since eggs and dairy help mitigate bad qualities of acid in sorrel.

Eva's chewing slowed down and she gave a teenager look. When you asked " what are you eating". She is very sweet.
Saturday morning hop topics. 🥰 My mom used to forage sorrel and then cook a soup from it, with vegetable broth and sour cream. Your foraging videos always remind me of my late mom, and how much I miss her. And also how much of this "old wisdom" is getting lost step by step. IMO, it is very important not to let these skills be forgotten.
Gordon Ramsay actually agrees that adding salt to eggs pulls the water out and breaks them down a bit. Good for a quiche or to make a pancake mix, bad for scrambled eggs.

Hop content!!! If you want any pointers on harvesting the wild hops, drying them or checking their alpha acids for bitterness give us a shout 😉 I had heard you could eat the first shoots but not tried it! Thanks for cooking with them. (Bines /vines bristles can scratch quite badly when harvesting so a long sleeve shirt helps). Cheers, Andy
I actually used to date a one-legged girl who worked at a brewery. She was in charge of the hops.

There is just something really satisfying about trying out various things rather than just following a recipe. Even when the result happens to be a disaster I'm still happy with having tried making something I just randomly came up with and when it works it feels like an achievement. I really enjoy seeing that same kind of experimental nature in some of your cooking

Your foraging videos are some of my favourites! They make me want to grab my basket and go out into the fielda myself! Last week for Mother's Day (continental Europe) i went on a three generation foraging trip with my mum and nan picking wild garlic. Your videos definitely inspired me to be a bit more experimental with what we did with the wild garlic. So rather than just picking the leaves whe got flower buds and stems as well. The stems are amazing stirr fried in a wok dish and the flowers make a lovely peppery finishing to a number of things, including pizza. Pickled some of the buds but haven't tried them yet.

Great video, as always. I spent quite a lot time looking into comfrey and it's safety as I run a company teaching about foraging. A few years ago negative comments started appearing on our website about comfrey, these stemmed from people 'cherry picking' from a medical report about it. The report is from China in 1979, I can't remember the links but I found it fairly easily. The lab extracted some alkaloids from green alkanet, related, but not the same plant as comfrey. They concentrated these and injected them into mice twice a day, after three months, a high percentage of mice had legions on their livers but these were proved non cancerous. You need to read the entire report to get this information otherwise it is easy to pick the negative comments in the report and ignore the facts. This horrible experiment did however end with the report stating that comfrey was safe for human consumption. If anybody is worried about this, English comfrey does not contain the alkaloids that are in question and is the white flowered variety in the video. Russian or purple flowered comfrey does contain the alkaloids but in trace amounts, you would need to eat buckets of the stuff to cause any problems. Basically, if you want to eat comfrey you can do so safely but do check this information for yourself.
I used to see loads of these Hops in my home city Oxfordshire, we had a brewery in the town so I imagine they were from there. My mum was a bit of a forager, her & her fella at the time used to go on long walks & come back with a bag full of what I considered as weeds as a child. She would have loved your channel. Been a while since I have seen cowslip, im in a city now & so miss the countryside. Awww Eva, she is a wee darling. So much learnt today Mike.

Hops also have high levels of plant estrogen similar to soya. Men who develop "moobs" normally have drunk too much hoppy beer. A nice quiche is no harm. But bare this in mind especially if you like hop flower tea. Good for older women though ;)

Being wild arum means never having to say you’re sorrel.
You mentioned making beer with the wild hops and I think that's a journey most of us here would really enjoy! Some other ideas include elderberry wine to go along with the cordial you make or perhaps some kind of mead? Cheers from Toronto..
It it thanks to you that I now almost exclusively make my own meals from home from scratch entirely. You always make it seem fun and enjoyable and I really appreciate these cooking videos that give me tons of new ideas! :D
Everything you make seems to come out so good ! Its really impressive and the creativity is refreshing.
"That looks interesting, doesn't it?" It sure does, Mike. It sure does.
I always deeply appreciate your vegetarian dabblings. I was thinking that it might need more salt. And I'm not familiar with the taste of black pudding, but most breakfast sausage here in the US has a good bit of sage in it. When you had fried up a bit of it and were discussing additions, I thought for sure there would be some sage added. My 2 cents - 2 pence?!! 😄
Best part of the weekend is breakfast and a new shrimp video!
on the topic of using dock. I've used the stems as substitute for rhubarb in the past. You need a lot more stems because they're smaller, obviously, but the same amount by weight... but yeah you can make quite a nice dock and strawberry crumble dessert
I have no intention of ever foraging. But I really enjoy watching you do it.
loving the new transparent and tracked labeling on plants! nice touch
As you were dealing with nettles in the video . I have found a small sack cloth bag of stinging nettles, placed into a water butt and allowed to rot make for a good feed for plants and just refill the bag once or twice a year, it also gives a good use the stringy end of season nettles. Awesome recipes look forward to attempting one this weekend . Keep up the awesome positive vibe , cheers for all your hard work .
The editing on those little plant cards at the beginning was just wonderful, how did you do it ? It looks so professional and effortless I loved it
One of the best British KZreadrs. The style of your videos combined with your personality makes it all very unique.
Brilliant, looks fantastic. I dont have a taste reference for most of the plants you used so i have no idea whether id enjoy it. I loved the moment where you said "its missing something" and my brain instantly said "Paprika!" And then you brought out smoked paprika.
I love waking up on a Saturday morning, getting a coffee and watching these videos as a chilled weekend morning treat 🌸
In Hungary sorell is a spring staple for many of us. We have a traditional "soup" recipe with it. I say soup, but its on the thicker side so you could call it a stew. Basically the washed sorell (40dkg) is gently softened in oil, then you make a roux by adding some flour, thicken it up. Then, add 1 liter water, roll to gentle boil, then you blend this up to not conpletely fine, just about so theres no big pieces in there. Then back to a boil and at this stage you may add water to it. Viscosity must be between not too thick but not thin as well. Then, you add sugar to it , based on taste but keep in mind that the soup is supposed to taste slightly to medium sweet. Add salt as well and finally add 2dl milk, mix and stir it in while still hot. Best served chill on a hot summer day. In some parts of Hungary an egg or two is added and stirred at the later stages like a chinese egg drop soup, but the original recipe doesnt have it. Ps: that quiche looked tasty. Cheers.
The only time I don't salt beaten eggs is if I'm making scrambled eggs. If you salt before they're fully cooked you'll draw some of the water out of the egg whites, when makes for very wet yet still very edible scrambled eggs. Of course I'm a poached or fried egg kinda guy if I'm given the choice. When the yolk is just warmed through but not started to harden yet, over simple buttered toast, is just a big plate of happiness for me! Thanks very much for sharing your pie with us! It sounds awesome and looks even better. Perhaps I could find a few things to make a similar pie myself here in the United States. I hope everyone is doing well and having a great day!!
Maybe you've heard this a million times already but in California where I grew up, sometimes (as kids with soft, tender skin) we accidentally got into a bit of stinging nettles while playing, but there was almost always horsetail growing near where the nettles grew. They seem to enjoy the very same conditions. We'd immediately eyeball the surroundings to find the horsetails, go pick a little bit, scrunch it slightly in our hands to bring up a little juice, and rub whatever part of us that was stinging with the scrunched horsetail. It took the stinging right off. Edit; I wish we had ramsons as a native plant. I've been hearing about them my whole life (weren't they in a fairy tail?), but I've never even smelled one yet. I'm jealous!
I am familiar with sorrel and its nice flavour. What I did not know is that the inflorescences are edible. I alwas tossed these when I was chewing sorrel stems as a refreshment. TIL Re stinging nettle: The "stingers" usually are not strong enough to penetrate the leathery skin inside your hands (where fingerprint-lines are) if you are careful to not let the plant touch anything else, you can get away without being stung. The thick needles on ribs and stalks may be quite a bit stronger, though. Reading up on dock I found that the leaves ARE used as subsitute for wine leaves.
I had a period of being extremely broke when I was younger & had to rely on stinging nettles. I did not have any gloves & no money to buy any, so had to learn to pick them bare handed. The whole plant is covered in the stinging hairs. So it is a matter of angle of contact. If you pick the tops off by taking hold of the stem lightly as your hand moves upwards I think it allows the hairs to fold, instead of sticking in to you. It takes a little practice but it does work. You do pick up the occasional sting of course. The sting is nowhere near as bad as a wasp sting & can be good for you. I find it a very effective treatment for an arthritic wrist. I sting the wrist all over thoroughly, which hardly hurts as it goes numb after the first few stings. I find I only need to do this once about every two years. Without treatment the pain can be bad enough to keep me awake nights. With the nettle treatment I do not have pain & do not have to put up with the side effects of painkillers that are often bad for your liver. I made the nettles into a soup by cooking them & working them through a sieve, accompanied by a potato, an onion, some milk & water & seasoning, including plenty of black pepper. Delicious!
Did appreciate the pudding list. It was interesting. As an American, we don't have nearly so many kinds but a few of them were familiar.

You should have your own edible wild plants you could learn to forage, in addition to the edible invasives that you can harvest as greedily as you like.
Hi Shrimp! Taking the time to weigh the ingredients while you are improvising is really appreciated. It really shows that you care about recording not just the results but also the process of cooking. That kind careful and measured aproach is by no means antithetical to creativity and makes spreading any advances made by your experiments that much easier.
Lovely stuff! I had some hop tops a couple of weeks ago - there's a lovely hop plant growing through an old field gate on my way to and from work. Ignored by everyone else, I couldn't resist them, and picked some, not all, of them, and used them in an omelette that evening. So very good. I'm lucky that I have to cycle about three miles through the countryside, on a little used road, to go to work. Plenty of good stuff to pick. Lovely video as always. Thank you. 👍👍👍 Your green pudding looked absolutely delicious. I'd have added some pinhead oats for texture, but nothing more. Have you ever used Wood Sorrel? It tastes the same as Common Sorrel, but is a bit more acidic. I very rarely see Common Sorrel, but Wood Sorrel pops up everywhere, even in flowerpots with other plants. I do like the taste, but can never think of anything to do with it.

I feel like i can speak for everyone when i say, its very informative and entertaining when you explain everything you can about your processes, in case others are inspired by you. I dont forage, but if i ever needed to, your videos have made me more aware of things i never knew. How you manage to make information so captivating to watch is beyond me. Thank you for all that you do and good luck and good health to you and yours!
I find it so cool that these hops are likely remnants of mid evil brewing, what a cool connection to the past. Being from a young country I always envy the rich and amazing history of the UK.
I made some delicious ramsons "pesto" the other day from a haul of them that I harvested after mountain biking. We call them "ramps" or "wild leeks" in the USA. A whole shopping bag full of fresh leaves, almost a half bottle of olive oil, a pound of almonds, half pound of Parmigiano Reggiano, fresh lemon juice, salt, black pepper.....into blender....in stages/batches, etc. Delicious! I spread it on the bun for my bison-meat burger that night. So good! And harvested from the local landscape at the Boyne School Forest Trail network near LOVELY, Petoskey, Michigan, USA!!!
As always, love learning with you shrimp
That quiche looks amazing
That's one great-looking quiche! And interesting, inventive cooking once again. Hope to see plenty more of this kind of content. Here in Finland some herbs have sprung up, but I'm a bit jealous of your selection over there :). Btw, have you ever considered trying bracken shoots (Pteridium aquilinum)? I know they're poisonous raw, but with proper preparation they ought to be safe to eat at least in moderate quantities (widely consumed in e.g. East Asia). They're supposed to have a taste resembling asparagus and almonds. I might try a little soon -- they're just springing up over here.
Mike, you should be pleased that Eva is such a good foraging student. She made sure to eat grass which she knows is safe thanks to your expert explanations.
Mike: What are you eating? Eva: What!
From being an incredibly unpleasant child, I developed a method of picking nettles and not getting stung. If you find an area along the stem with fewer leaves and move upwards along the stem as you grip it, you can lay down the spines as you pull. It's not 100% effective, and it takes a bit of practice, but it did allow me to chase people about with bunches of nettles when I was a kid.
Broad leaf doc leaves look like a great substitute for Banana leaves, or cabbage (when i make steamed dumplings) The Green pudding was lots of fun to watch and I learned about another use for sunflower seeds (and melon seeds) Thank you Mike (and our Nigerian correspondant) The Quiche looked yummy too. All the best from Jim Oaxaca
I think your green pudding looks absolutely amazing! So decorative with the leaf pattern of the dock leaves. Very impressive!
That was fascinating. A week ago, I went looking for a recipe for red lentil tofu and watched the video of how to make it, plus Mary’s Kitchen pumpkin seed tofu. As I was watching you, it kept reminding me that I had liquidised my pumpkin seeds in the same way, and then pressed the tofu in my newly purchased tofu press (Tofuture from EBay). It pressed really easily and made a nice firm-ish block, which I cut into little squares and then fried four of them to serve with curried vegetables. The pumpkin seed tofu wasn’t fried in any fat because I thought it might be rich enough and it dry fried really well. It was delicious, but a bit tasteless, so when I saw what you added, I decided I could use the same flavourings for the next meal. I’ve got loads, since her recipe called for a pound of pumpkin seeds! I enjoyed that video - it was so relevant because I just finished my lunch, using the home made tofu, but have loads to go. Also, pressed out of the mould is a lovely rich, creamy milk, with a very dense mouth feel. Your pudding reminded me of haggis, because of the oats and freshly ground pepper, mace etc. Great stuff and thank you very much as always ❤

I would love to see a follow-up on this. I could be wrong and please excuse me if my perception is wrong, but you seem quite technically apt and have a fondness for exploring the small details in things, but you also seem, at least to me to appreciate a simple lifestyle. You can just be yourself and enjoy doing things you find interesting, and I think sharing that with a large group of people is quite magnificent. Imagine 40 000 people watching your video in a movie theatre or even live, is quite an amusing thought. Your video style isn't what I typically watch on KZread, but its value and entertainment are to be undermined. How did you start foraging and learning the different plants that are edible?

I just realized that notch in the pudding bowl may actually be a place to loop string under the bowl when you are making your handle. Just so you can have a touch more support when lifting the bowl out of the water and not worry about the bowl not sitting flat at the bottom of your pot/on a trivet.
Brewing beer with wild hops sounds amazing.
We love sorrel. It is extremely hard to find fresh in the US but you can buy it in jars some places, mostly where there is a big Polish population. Most of us grow it. We make a soup out of it. I take some chicken broth(you can use any broth or water) I cook down the sorrel and add either some heavy cream or my favorite, a slurry made of sour cream and a bit of water. Then add some pan fried kielbasa, boiled potatoes, and hard boiled egg. It can taste a bit of spinach also.
I know she appears in many of your videos, but could we please have more of Eva?❤😊
There was a case of someone dying from common sorrel soup. He ate an estimated pound of fresh sorrel at one sitting. He really liked traditional sorrel soup.
I found some hop plants growing in my grandparents backyard amongst the blackberries. I made hop tea from the hops.
