The message

Crofters on the west-Scotland coast, where soil is often very thin,

traditionally planted potatoes on a mound of seaweed. The mounds were
called lazybeds, must have been named by someone who had never done it
:-) Potatoes grown with seaweed taste marvellous.

Do you still have to salt the water when boiling them? ;o)


I never salt the water anyway - the last box of Maldon Sea Salt I bought
has lasted me nearly ten years.
