What about cooking and eating ancestrally when you’re in times of turmoil, or busy chaotic times – like having a new baby, or when people are sick, or when you’re moving across countries! In this episode Alison and I are going to talk about all of these things because we are going through all of them. We will share some of our strategies and plans for using up food stores before a move, or preparing food in advance when there’s a baby coming, and how we’re going to keep our systems running despite all of the disruptions going on in normal life.

In this episode, we give a snapshot of what’s bubbling in our kitchens right now. From medicinal vegetable ferments to historic fizzy Turkish drinks, come listen and share in our creations.
