Summary Author Description Specs A beautifully illustrated guide to sourcing wild ingredients, with detailed recipes showing how to cook with them. From the coast to the mountains to the native bush, set off on a delightful wild food adventure across Aotearoa.Eat Wild is a guide to getting your wild ingredients, then cooking with them. This beautifully illustrated book showcases some of New Zealand’s most widely known yet underutilised wild foods: plants, including flowers, fungi and seaweed; kai moana, including pāua, kōura and snapper; and even hunting tips, such as what to do with your ethically obtained rabbits. Sophie Merkens takes us on the trip of a lifetime, sharing her own story, recipes and advice from across the country, as well as the generous wisdom of the chefs, divers, hunters and kaitiaki she meets along the way. Whether you’re a seasoned hunter-gatherer looking for new recipes, or simply curious about our natural world, Eat Wild offers a joyful reflection on our connection to nature and the nourishment it provides. Sophie Merkens is a photographer, writer, recipe developer and food stylist. Her passion lies in sharing local stories that connect kai, people, and place. Her work moves between the wild and the studio-writing recipes, cooking, then styling food on river rocks, mossy logs, and forest floors, as well as in commercial kitchens. You'll find her in the garden, foraging in the wild, cooking over fire, road-tripping in her van Zephyr, or catching teeny tiny waves with mates on surf days. She's happiest when sharing delicious, local and seasonal meals with loved ones - often doing her happy-eating dance. Her first book, Grow - Wahine Finding Connection Through Food, was published in 2022.
