Product Information
Nuts are perhaps the original health food, the main source of nutrition for many animals, and as apparently basic as food gets. Taking us on a gastronomic, botanical and cultural tour of nuts around the world, Nuts is the first book of its kind about this foodstuff, crammed with surprising and little-known facts. As allergy sufferers will know, nuts get almost everywhere, being used industrially, in confectionary and in all sorts of cooking - Nuts gives us the full story, through cultivation, harvesting, processing, and consumption. No stone is left unturned in this spirited account of the oldest and most natural food on earth.Product Identifiers
