Green Mountains charts a journey through the Caucasus, using food as a passport and stories as currency.
Beginning in Armenia, moving northwards through Georgia and ending at the Black Sea, Green Mountains weaves together the enchanting geography and the cult of the kitchen that prevails within these two countries. Tales of testing hikes and unpredictable terrain are punctuated by the foods Eden eats for respite – citrus, tea, apricots, mountain greens and magical cheeses – and the stories she uncovers.
Sharing both the deep comfort and satisfaction of a meal served after a long walk, and the unique relationships she forms with her hosts, Eden offers readers unique insights into the culture and food of these two countries. With meticulously researched histories, a catalogue of recipes from her travels, and rich, compelling stories, this is a travel book like no other.
