Wild Food Plants of Hawai'i Sunny Savage 9781500955106 Books Reviews
Plants mentioned in the Introduction are not covered in the text. A lot about pretty common fruits and not enough about foraging.
Sunny Savage, you're awesome. Buy this book!
Spectacular!!! Besides opening my world to new plants I can consume, Savage was a very entertaining, thoughtful writer. The respect she has for nature and the way she wrote about it helped instill it in me as well. Mahalo nui loa Sunny for this book. I can't thank you enough!!!!
Not terrible, but I was hoping for more information of more edibles...
Its an ok book but if I had seen it in the bookstore and could have flipped through the pages I wouldn't have bought it. I was hoping to find a wild plant forage book specific to Hawaii, but this book just has the same very common edible roadside weeds that are found everywhere, nettles, dandelions, New Zealand Spinach and the like. So it might be an ok book if you have never foraged anywhere before but i just moved to Hawaii from California and I already knew most of the plants in the book from California. There is a very small section at the back of the book with a very few plants specific to Hawaii but not much there, not even basic stuff like how to recognize a papaya, mango or avacado tree.
Informative for the wild food novice or seasoned Hawaiian forager, Wild Food Plants of Hawaii, with its infectious delight in the subject, gorgeous and visually enticing photos, practical advice and excellent resource links, is an invitation to walk the earth in a new way, gather nature's bounty, experiment, and get one's cooking creativity recharged.
"Wild Food Plants of Hawaii" is a life changing book. This afternoon, for instance, I ran out and chopped some purslane from my yard to add to a frittata. This succulent plant is a “weed” that I used to try to eradicate. But after reading "Wild . . ." I’ve been seeking this omega-3, beta-carotene, superstar of nutrition and discovering new ways to use it.
The book is packed with information. Your next hike can have a culinary bonus. Your everyday meals can have fresh added minerals and nutrients – for free. Sunny Savage will make you see kiawe (those trees with the huge thorns) with new appreciation; the pods are delicious and, she says, “a nutritious gem.” She tells how to pick the plants wisely. For kiawe, you need to avoid mold; using a UV flashlight takes care of that, she says. Instead of ignoring some of the thousands of pounds of wasted kiawe pods that drop each year in Hawaii, you can use them for kiawe flour or refreshing drinks.
Although "Wild . . ." is not recipe book, Sunny Savage has included enough recipes to inspire me to try hers – and to experiment too. You’ll be having new flavors in your fresh salads, main courses, desserts – and perhaps even fermenting some sparkling drinks after you read Sunny’s book.
And the photographs are spectacular! Also Sunny includes a list of helpful resources and a bibliography.
If you live in Hawaii or visit, get this book. You’ll look at roadside “weeds” with new appreciation – and knowledge of how to turn them into healthy additions to your meals.
We vacation in Hawaii and found this book to be a wonderful guide to understanding the wild foods of the region. Lovely photos of the plants and loving descriptions of their uses belays a joy and respect towards the plants and fruits.
Our goals on our vacations to tropical locales includes visiting wild areas and local markets to experience the foods of true locals, this book is a great guide to using the plants and fruits we can find in the wild and at markets to enhance our trips.
