Ask Flora Funga Podcast anything OR Leave a ReviewElspeth dives into the surprisingly sexy world of nuts and trees, unpacking the botanical definition of nuts while highlighting the ecological power of oaks as keystone species. She gets detailed with acorns—flour, starch, oil, and even liqueur—exploring their culinary versatility and cultural history.
