Welcome to the Celtnet Wild Food Recipes Home Page

Welcome to Celtnet's Wild Food Recipes Page — Here all the recipes incorporating or featuring wild foods on this site are brought together. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the wild fod recipes added to this site. Just so you know, I am defining 'wild foods' as any ingredient that can be found or foraged in the wild. Obviously almost all Ancient Recipes fall into this category... But you will also find modern and fusion recipes that have a wild-sourced ingredient in them; whether that be a wild herb, a wild fruit, a mushroom, a seaweed or wild-caught meat. I hope that these pages will encourage you to look at your food and the world around you in a different way. Just have a look at those various hedgerow 'weeds' that just might make an unusual addition to your plate and provide a new and different taste for your palate.

Below you will find several hundred recipes incorporating wild foods of one kind or another. These wild food based dishes cover all historical periods (from ancient times to the present day) and also include some of the latest Fusion foods. So you will find Indian, Asian and African inspired dishes that use European wild foods as a main ingredient. I hope these recipes will encourage you to explore the world about you and to make more use of the edible wild foods that are right on your doorstep. To help you in this, why not have a look at this site's Guide to Wild Foods.

Alphabetical list of wild recipes follows (limited to 100 recipes per page). There are 1261 recipes in total:
