Samphire, sea lavender, oyster leaves, seaweed: all are examples of salty vegetables. Along the Dutch and Belgian coast, but also in other countries, the salinization of the soil is increasing, including agricultural land. Growing salty vegetables is a solution for using this agricultural land, but you can also do this at home! You can grow salty vegetables everywhere; in the garden, on the balcony, in the greenhouse, in your room, or even on the kitchen counter, whether you live on the coast or not. Zilt  teaches you how you can grow the most delicious vegetables with salty cultivation and, not unimportantly, how you can process them in surprising and tasty dishes. Because not only is the increase in saline products in our diet a solution for agriculture, the vegetables are rich in minerals, vitamins and often also dietary fibre.

Seaweed is a very diverse group of organisms. They are central to the base of marine ecology and are a dominant aspect of the Dutch coast. This field guide contains more than 130 different species of seaweed, differentiating between green, red and brown weeds. The seaweeds shown in this field guide are all easily recognisable by magnifier or even the naked eye. This guide will describe characteristics, differences between similar species, habitat, how seasons effect seaweed and lastly its dispersion along the coastlines. Underwater sightings, time zones and beach sightings are made possible by its plethora of detailed pictures. Information about optimal sites for finding seweed are covered in the guide as well. In short, all the material and information you'd need to get started.
