Audible Weed Walk – Ep.84 “Eating weedy greens during the rains: but when?”

We are lucky to be in a country so diverse in every sense. When we say monsoon has arrived, we need to be mindful which part of the country we are talking about and within that which area? Traditions of what to eat and what not to eat have developed based on that. Right now it is monsoon in the rest of India but the main monsoon season for Tamil Nadu is a few months away. This is the reason why we need to hone our skills, bring our attention, and learn objectively about the wild weedy greens. Leaning back to the tradition, old recipes, time tested ancestral wisdom are all good  – but we need to have reasoned clarity behind those traditions so that we do not blindly follow them but understand the reason behind them so that we are able to shift to adjust to a new reality to reclaim our future. Lofty words for a bunch of weeds – you might think, but it is true. Listen to this podcast and if you are interested in the topic of what to eat safely during the rains and a bit of why, catch up on the podcasts 21, 24, and 27 on the YouTube channel Edibleweedwalk.
