Liver: do you love it or hate it?

Which ever side of the fence you're on, we're betting you know that liver is a true superfood; one of the most nutrient dense foods we can include in our diet.

But for many it's also a 'problem' food – we know because both of us regularly get questions on including liver in an ancestral diet.

This episode is for liver lovers and liver haters! We talk about why liver is so important, how often to eat liver, where to start with sourcing, preparing and cooking liver, what types of liver we eat and how we eat it, how to eat liver without realising you're eating liver, how to get children to eat liver, what to do if you just can't eat liver and we share our favourite and our patrons favourite liver recipes.

We just couldn't stop talking about liver and if you're our patron of the podcast, you will find an after show in your private feed where we share even more about liver including eating it raw.

Rebecca is a good friend and a good influence. She is the creator behind A Humble Place, with a website and an Instagram both by that name, where I first found her when I was looking for Charlotte Mason art studies, and I got many of her beautiful sets. In this episode, though, she is teaching me about her meal planning strategies. I am now using her method and it is revolutionizing everything that I am doing. I am so grateful to Rebecca for joining me today to discuss this because I am not by nature a meal planner. With a very busy summer coming up, I need to have some good frameworks in place to rely on for meal planning, having others being able to participate in the food preparation, being able to know what is coming down the pipeline; and it was really interesting to me how her meal planning works with an ancestral and seasonal food lifestyle, which is the way she and her family eat. So many meal planning ideas and options out there assume you're going to be going to the grocery store every couple of days and buying lots of convenience or unseasonal foods, which just doesn't suit the way a lot of us are eating. Thank you Rebecca for opening up a whole new world to me! I am so excited to share this episode with you today; enjoy!

I know milling my own flour is better and I want to do it, but where do I start?

Home milling can be such a joy and we’re here in this episode to guide you through all the hows.

We’ll talk the multiple benefits of milling at home and fill any gaps in knowledge you might have. We’ll explain how you can grind a grain, what mills are available for your kitchen and the benefits of each one, then I’ll share how I mill at home, the organisation around it and what I make. And stay till the end as we’ll also squeeze in a chat about how home-milled flour is different to shop bought and how you can best work with this amazing food stuff in your own kitchen.
