Wild Seasonings Twelve Wild Preserves to Stretch the Season

Wild Seasonings is a collection of twelve small wild preserves made from the short seasons of blossom, hedgerow and low tide. These are recipes for stretching the moment: a handful of petals, a basket of seaweed, early-spring buds or fragrant flowers transformed into salts, sugars, pickles, vinegars, syrups and jellies.

Every recipe is simple, adaptable and rooted in the British landscape. You’ll find coastal gomasio made from dried seaweeds, sharp and fragrant magnolia buds held in brine, botanical sugars, spring vinegars and herb jellies built on a traditional apple base. Each preserve requires only a small harvest and can be made with basic equipment at home.

This booklet is a way of keeping wild flavour within reach — bright, vivid and alive through the year.
