I love most vegetables but broad beans are tops especially from the pod but frozen
ones just as good! What veggies do you enjoy and try to make enjoyable especially for the kids
Cook small beetroot, cool and finely dice. Place in a 4oz coffe jar. Make up half a raspberry jelly with white vinegar and pour over beetroot until jar is full. When set it makes a refreshing pickle to have with cold meats/salad and helps to keep the beetroot more manageable to avoid all those stains on tablecloths/clothes.
Strange thing about asparagus is it is so easy to grow. Once a bed is established it takes care of itself year in and year out with very little effort required. Mind you the root system is something else - trying to clear it is hard work - reminds me of those old metal springed bed bases. When the season is over youget all that lovely fern for floral use.
Hi jb - you are more than welcome. Waiting for the new home grown ones with baited breath. Trying out those bag grown ones for the first time. Keep earthing them up.
I remember marrow from childhood and hated it, yet love cucumber (basically the same plant). Also carrots; I am not over-fond of them cooked yet love them raw, especially grated.
love them, absolutely LOVE THEM! and also, they bring back childhood memories, eating them at my nanas, but totally agree, far too overpriced these days.
personally love aubergine - esp cooked as a parmigana, so not the healthy option!
also love cabbage, carrot and swede!
Oh I forgot about marrows, not sure I like them. I absolutely love beetroot, can;t understand why my sis hates it. Love it when it's still warm, before I pickle it.
