kitchenwise

I reckon Hippocrates was seriously hip: 'Let food by thy medicine and medicine be thy food', he said way back whenever that was, which makes sense to me because I treat my kitchen more like a medicinal laboratory and sacred scullery than I do a drab cookhouse. I trained up in the use of all sorts of weird and wonderful botanicals, remedies, nutrients and essences as means to treat illness, but these days I'm far more interested in restoring deep wellness. This seems to happen most profoundly, time and time again, via a return to good, wholesome, nutritious deliciousness and traditional medicinal eating (what a mouthful!) Our bodies are very cool, they know what they're doing, and I really do believe they'll do everything right by us if they're indulged, fluffed up and nourished to the gills with the right grub. This blog is about the right grub. And other stuff.
