Love the flavour of these, but oh, they are so hard to pick. It’s not just the thorns, they tend to squige in your fingers when picking too!

They do; I’m fond of squishing them off into a bowl. They’re just as good as mush! Most of what I forage goes into the freezer for a while anyway.

Good point – I guess it’s just being organised enough to have bowls on hand. We don’t usually go out on purpose to forage, but do so if we’re out walking. Usually have a few plastic bags on us just in case!

I did better! Snipped off branches (small bits!) and stuck them into a basket. Put to the freezer at home and picked the berries off when frozen. Worked great!
My name is Scott and I love food; talking about it, cooking it and eating it. I’m not a chef or anything exciting like that – I just cook at my home in Lincolnshire with my wife Gosia and daughter Mia for the sheer enjoyment of it.
