I seem to remember growing New Zealand spinach about 40 yrs ago. If I
remember the leaves are thicker than the ordinary varieties.
If picked young they are just as good as any other variety.
From memory I believe that it was grown chiefly as it was the best variety
for freezing.

That's the stuff. The friend who gave it to us said that it cooks down to
give more bulk than normal spinach - if that sentence makes any sense!
