Nuts: A Global History
Ken Albala
Nuts are perhaps the original health food, the main source of nutrition for many animals, and as apparently basic as food gets. Taking us on a gastronomic, botanical and cultural tour of nuts around the world, Nuts is the first book of its kind about this foodstuff, crammed with surprising and little-known facts. As allergy sufferers will know, nuts get almost everywhere, being used industrially, in confectionary and in all sorts of cooking - Nuts gives us the full story, through cultivation, harvesting, processing, and consumption. No stone is left unturned in this spirited account of the oldest and most natural food on earth.
