One of the best herb book from Yaeyama,Okinawa

南の島のハーブ

When this book was released, the air of
“a great book came out!! “
spread over Yaeyama.

What I wanted to know about herbs and herbs.
The way of eating and using Yaeyama’s original medicinal herbs, which have been taught by grandfathers and grandmothers since ancient times, is arranged in a modern way and is introduced so that anyone can understand.

The growing herbs and how they are eaten may differ slightly depending on the island.
If you find that you can eat an herb that you have never thought of before, you’ll want to give it a try.

“Oh, this herb was growing there. Let’s try it next time.”

Every time I open this book, I get curious.
I’d like to introduce the herbs I tried on this blog, so please look forward to it.

Furthermore, the carefully hand-drawn herb illustrations are so accurate that they can be called botanical art pictorial books, and they capture the atmosphere more than photographs, which sets them apart from other botanical pictorial books.
