As #COP30 in Belem 🇧🇷 continues, we are reminded how vital forests are in resilient food systems. They provide food, fuel, medicine, and livelihoods, all while safeguarding the biodiversity, soil, water and climate, that our agriculture depends on.🌳

From Pimienta Cumari to Jambu, ...local Brazilian chefs Esther Wyel @estherweyl and Lucas Rodrigues @lucaslrodrigues blended traditional knowledge and Amazonian ingredients to create a #ChefsManifesto menu that celebrates the communities and forest landscapes that nurture them.

🌱 Ingredient of the Week: Egusi Seeds

Egusi seeds come from a melon plant native to #WestAfrica, commonly used in soups and stews providing a nutty creamy texture!

Rich in protein, healthy fats, and essential minerals like magnesium and iron, they are excellent nutritional ...options as well as being drought-tolerant with a long shelf life, and supporting local livelihoods, particularly women, through smallholder farming and seed trade. 🌾💚✨

Let’s celebrate and protect #indigenous crops like egusi for our health, our heritage, and our #planet. 🌿 What’s your favourite way to use Egusi seeds? Share your #recipes with us 🙌🙌
