Love John Wright! I wish he's come and teach us here in Portsmouth!

Its that time of year when your foraging menu starts,thanks John im now motivated to go out and start forafing the new growth.

Brilliant introduction to foraging, keep up the great work. I’ve just started my own show, so thanks for the inspiration. I’ve got fond memories of you on the river cottage show

Totally agree! It's great to see John in action telling us what to look out for; he's such a knowledgeable guy! I'd love to do a proper foraging tour with him at River Cottage HQ! There's a 10 disc collection box, which I think you can get on auction sites, but an anniversary one would be awesome! I would TRULY love to see these guys re-release River Cottage Everyday back on DVD. The few copies that were released are non existent now. They have some of my favourite episodes in the whole of the series. :D :D :D

They have one. A few years ago I bought the River Cottage dvd collection and the thing didn’t even include all the series. So annoying. It was just the specials - Summer, Gone Fishing and so on.

You can actually boil and leech out the bitterness of the root, before using it. We used to do this in the boy scouts and fry the roots afterwards, instead of fried potatoes.

This is true

Dandelion root coffee taste so much nicer than store bought coffee... it contains iron, zinc, calcium and potassium... rich in vitamins B, C, A & D ... and the roasted form of the root contains probiotics and antioxidants...

Chicory roots also can be used for "coffee drink" substitute since it's in the same family as a dandelion.

Thanks for these tips, I've never thought of using dandelion root before. Where I live people usually use the young leaves in spring (before the buds show in the middle of the rosette) to make a salad: vinaigrette, bacon bits, mashed boiled eggs. It's still a bitter leaf, but not unlike other salad leaves (radicchio, etc.).

The very young bud can actually be used raw instead of hazel nuts. It is not very bitter yet. And I think there is actually an old River Cottage episode where John and Pam makes some dandelion jam (!) out of the flower petals. (Dandelion is my favorite beginner foraging thing. Great with kids!)

Thank you John

I miss River Cottage. Why did they stop posting on KZread?

Is Lidl that empty now?

In the words of Crocodile Dundee, “Well, you can live on it... But it tastes like shit!” It works! 👍

Yeah but you can eat the leaves of dandelion and I think the flowers.

So I cut the lawn today. All the bittercress is now in the green recycling bin 🤦‍♂️

Please more content of this ch. 😥😥😥

can you have word with hugh please his nonsense about mackerel being sustainable has lead to the worst over fishing i can remember, the mackerel shoal is failing all over the uk and ireland, did anyone ever tell hugh that theres a difference between sustainable and large volumes of something, it takes a mackerel nearly 7 years to reach half a pound, john if you can get hugh this message im sure the mackerel might be thankfull

John, get some new specs! Stop buying them from charity shops!
