Stinging nettle is known to have been eaten by the celts. It can be boiled or picked, which breaks down the stinging nature of the plant. Also, cook books are a modern invention. You're not going to find a collection of thousand year old recipes by looking at written records.
While cook books are modern, we do actually find thousand year old recipes [1]. [1] https://eatshistory.com/the-5-oldest-recipes-in-the-world/

#52I've had this hypothesis that human bodies are kind of like cruise ships built by microbes. The larger body is not necessarily the one in control (like in the cruise ship metaphor). Maybe at some point, the vessel being built gains some control of its own - maybe this will happen with AI.

You’re supposed to open the can in a bucket of water outside with a good breeze. Once it’s rinsed and prepped on crackers or focaccia it’s not bad.
It's still pretty bad tbh. Also: focaccia? you're supposed to eat it with tunnbröd, boiled potatoes and sour cream!

The Yakult strain (L shirota) has solid research behind it. And tbh I feel a real difference when drinking them.

Ok I just looked at my batch of sauerkraut and it needed some liquid so I added some white wine (chasselas). If it kills the reaction I will hunt you down and make you eat moldy sauerkraut.
I’ve done Chinese style fermentation which just goes forever, you add more veggies in as you take them out, and it calls for adding vodka every month or so. Wine should be fine
Are there any resources you can recommend to help speed up the education of someone wanting to learn more about this?

Ja, tunnbröd, potatis o gräddfil är standard men det gott på focaccias med lite aoli. Provade det för första gången i Luleå.
Fast å andra sidan slipper jag helst att blanda mig och surströmming också, om det går!
