EDIBLE WILD PLANTS IN SPAIN
J. TARDO
ET AL
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2006, 152, 2771. With 2 figures
This paper compiles and evaluates the ethnobotanical data currently available on wild plants traditionally used for
human consumption in Spain. Forty-six ethnobotanical and ethnographical sources from Spain were reviewed,
together with some original unpublished field data from several Spanish provinces. A total of 419 plant species
belonging to 67 families was recorded. A list of species, plant parts used, localization and method of consumption, and
harvesting time is presented. Of the seven different food categories considered, green vegetables were the largest
group, followed by plants used to prepare beverages, wild fruits, and plants used for seasoning, sweets, preservatives,
and other uses. Important species according to the number of reports include: Foeniculum vulgare, Rorippa
nasturtium-aquaticum, Origanum vulgare, Rubus ulmifolius, Silene vulgaris, Asparagus acutifolius, and Scolymus
hispanicus. We studied data on the botanical families to which the plants in the different categories belonged, overlapping between groups and distribution of uses of the different species. Many wild food plants have also been used
for medicinal purposes and some are considered to be poisonous. This review highlights the rich traditional knowledge on edible plants that has remained in rural Spain. Until recently, many wild plants were used as dietary supplements. However, most of this knowledge survives only in the memory of the elderly, and will probably disappear
in a few decades. 2006 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2006, 152, 27

role in complementing staple foods to provide a balanced diet by supplying trace elements, vitamins, and
minerals, and may do so again in the future. Their
interest as a source of nutraceuticals has been highlighted in recent studies (Heinrich et al., 2005; The
Local Food-Nutraceutical Consortium, 2005).
The aim of this study was to compile and evaluate
current available data on the wild plants traditionally
used in Spain for human food over the last 100 years.
Most of this information is scattered and difficult for
the international scientific community to access.

QUANTIFICATION
CATEGORIES
Seven categories of food uses based on folk perceptions
were established to classify wild food plants. Plants
whose leaves, stems, or even unripe fruits or seeds
were consumed were placed in the category of vegetables (VEG) or greens or green vegetables. Only
fruits or seeds consumed when ripe were considered as
wild fruits (FRU). Other plants were used for making
beverages (BEV), such as home-made liqueurs or
other alcoholic drinks (BEVliq), herbal teas used in
general as a digestive (BEVher), and other beverages
such as coffee substitutes or chocolate aromatizers
(BEVoth). In many cases, especially herbal teas and
liqueurs, the plants were used as both food and medicine. We only included species that were consumed to
help improve digestion after a large meal or as a tasty
beverage, excluding plants used only to treat stomachache. Plants used for seasoning (SEA) and as preservatives (PRE), including to curdle milk (PREcur),
were also considered. Sweets included plants whose
flowers (SWEflw) or subterranean organs (SWEsub)
were eaten for their sweet flavour. This category also
included some plants whose exudates were consumed
(SWEexu), such as species whose latex was used as
chewing gum. Finally, there was a category for
other food uses, such as oils (OTHoil), flours (OTHflo),
and pickles (OTHpic).
TAXONOMY
Several works were followed for taxonomy and plant
nomenclature: Flora Iberica (Castroviejo et al.,
19862005) for families included therein, and Flora
Europaea (Tutin et al., 19641980) for the remaining
families, except for the genus Matricaria (Bremer &
Humphries, 1993) and for the Lamiaceae. In the latter
family, the criterion of one of the authors (Ramn
Morales), which will be included in Volume XII of
Flora Iberica, was followed.

such as Artemisia granatensis and Santolina oblongifolia, are narrow-range endemics. The list also
includes more common species that are only used for
food purposes in certain places (Inula salicina). Many
of these taxa were mentioned in one or two sources,
and only five species had more than seven citations
(Jasonia glutinosa, Rumex induratus, Satureja obovata, Mantisalca salmantica, and Teucrium capitatum). These species are widely and exclusively used
in Spain, and therefore could be considered as typical
Spanish wild edibles. A large number of the species
with an asterisk were consumed as sweets or beverages. The former category has often been ignored in
comprehensive works about wild food plants in spite of
its importance in childrens diets. The latter category
is sometimes not considered in food surveys and may
therefore be over-represented on the list. Finally, over
30 green vegetables, such as Carduncellus dianius
and Salvia argentea, were consumed very locally.

WILD
FRUITS
BEVERAGES
Most of the plants used for making beverages are
aromatic species, mainly belonging to the Lamiaceae and Asteraceae families. The most remarkable of them, with the highest number of reports,

Quercus ilex ssp. ballota (Ferrndez & Sanz, 1993; Tardo et al., 2005) and Ceratonia siliqua (Obn & Rivera,
1991; Rabal, 2000) were also used in the same way.
SEASONING
SWEETS
PRESERVATIVES
It is well known that many plants used for seasoning
also have preserving properties. However, only plants
mentioned by people as preservatives have been
included in this category, e.g. Arbutus unedo, Pistacia
lentiscus, and Ceratonia siliqua, whose stems and
leaves are used for hardening olives. Other species are
used for preserving dried figs (Foeniculum vulgare)
and raisins (Artemisia campestris and Dittrichia graveolens), where the fruits are left in an aqueous infusion of these plants before being dried.
In warm weather, hunters prevent rabbits and
hares from rotting by removing their viscera and
inserting wild plants such as Retama sphaerocarpa.
This is probably the origin of some game recipes
where, once skinned and gutted, the animal is left
overnight in the open air marinating with aromatic
plants, such as Satureja obovata, in its cavity before it
is stewed the following day (Verde et al., 1998).
Other examples of preservatives are the plant species used to curdle milk for making cheese or curd.
Although the flowers of Cynara cardunculus are the
most commonly employed for making cheese, other
Asteraceae, such as Cynara humilis, Silybum
marianum and Onopordum macracanthum, are also
used. The latex of Euphorbia serrata and other

mon in the past, oil was also obtained from the fruits
of Fagus sylvatica in the north of Spain.
The flour obtained from the seeds of Aegilops geniculata, a close relative of wheat, was used for making
bread in times of shortage. Even flour from the seeds
of Caucalis platycarpos and Vicia lutea or from rhizomes of Cynodon dactylon, mixed with wheat flour,
was once used for bread-making. As mentioned previously, the most common bread amongst prehistoric
Spanish settlers was made of acorn flour.
In addition to the olives from the wild olive trees,
prepared in brine like the cultivated ones, one of the
species most frequently consumed as a pickle is Capparis spinosa. Its immature flower buds (alcaparras,
capers), unripe fruits (alcaparrones), and young
shoots are pickled either in vinegar or brine. Although
much less well known, the bulbs and basal part of the
stems of Allium ampeloprasum, stems of Portulaca
oleracea, tubers of Helianthus tuberosus, and young
shoots of Inula crithmoides have also been prepared as
pickles in vinegar. In some villages in Albacete province, immature pine cones of Pinus pinea are prepared
and preserved in brine, and unripe seeds are eaten
with the shell still soft (Snchez Lpez et al., 1994;
Blanco & Lpez-Snchez, 2004).

CONCLUSIONS
This review clearly shows that a deep-rooted biocultural heritage surrounding wild edible plants still
exists in rural Spain. Although, most species are not
widely consumed throughout the country and only 5%
of species are regarded as being of widespread use,
many were, until quite recently, important as supplementary foods. They were used to vary cuisine and to
flavour, garnish, or complement other foods. They
were also a good source of vitamins and minerals, but
have now become less important. Most of this traditional knowledge only survives in the memory of the
elderly and is now in danger of vanishing. This paper
attempts to compile and disseminate that knowledge
in order to help maintain cultural traditions and facilitate research into food history and new food sources.
A comparison of the list of wild species used in Spain
with similar lists from around the world seems to confirm the concept that people worldwide collect the
same types of plants: vegetables, fruits and nuts,
legumes, spices, roots, and tubers (King, 1994). People
have often independently selected plants as food from
similar taxa (e.g. many species of Taraxacum) or similar life forms (e.g. plants with a basal rosette of leaves
as vegetables).
In Spain, wild plants are considered as famine food,
eaten, above all, in times of scarcity. In fact, most wild
edible species are not now gathered. Many of the informants from different sources often mention this fact,
referring to the 1940s, after the Spanish Civil War.
However, some species are so much appreciated, at
least locally, that they are still gathered and even marketed. Some people still gather them because they like
their taste and enjoy walking and collecting wild edibles. In the countryside, they are often considered an
important part of the culture and included in traditional recipes of regional cuisines. Some species are so
popular that they are regarded as a trademark of
local and regional gastronomic character, e.g. Jasonia
glutinosa in Aragn, Catalua, and Comunidad Valenciana, Sideritis hyssopifolia in the Cantabrian region,
and Asparagus acutifolius, Silene vulgaris, and Scolymus hispanicus in several parts of central and western
Spain. This, coupled with recent developments in
rural tourism and attention to the health properties of
natural foods, has increased interest in wild edible
plants as potential new food sources.
Most of the edible plants mentioned are abundant
species commonly found in the areas surrounding villages, including the weeds of field crops and gardens,
and hedgerow and meadow plants (Daz-Betancourt
et al., 1999; Bonet & Valls, 2002; Pieroni et al., 2002).
Most utilized wild food plants have a vast distribution
range and collection does not threaten the wild populations. However, they include quite a large number of
