Discover the healing power of food using over 100 ancient recipes and ingredients adapted for the modern world, from the author of The Sacred Science.

Satisfy your taste buds, appetite, and soul with this inspiring collection of easy-to-make, flavourful recipes. Nick Polizzi grew up in a restaurant and has spent much of his life travelling the world, studying traditional healing foods from Northern Africa all the way to remote regions of the Amazon rainforest. In their home kitchen, Nick and his wife, Michelle, have translated this hard-earned culinary wisdom into everyday meals meant for sharing.

Every recipe meets three fundamental criteria: it has ingredients that can be traced back at least 500 years, it has well-documented health benefits, and it's absolutely delicious. Accessible and easy-to-follow, this cookbook focuses on:

  • Soups and stews
  • Medicinal spices and sauces
  • Fermented superfoods
  • Dried and cured snacks
  • Nutrient-dense proteins
  • Savoury mushroom dishes
  • Greens, petals, and grasses
  • Forgotten ancient grains
  • Enzyme-rich breads
  • Healing elixirs and spirits
  • Teas and tonics

Appealing to a broad palate, this full-colour cookbook provides tips and substitutions for adjusting to different needs, including gluten-free and vegan diets.
