Thanks Sacha, the pod certainly looks the same but the leaves are rather
different. Since it was growing wild I don't think I'll try the recipe,
though!!

You might try asking on a food/cooking group, perhaps. There is a uk one
but it might not help any more than urg can. If there's a group that
discusses Spanish cooking, you might get some help there.

Its not edible, its Aruajia sericefera one of the climbing milkweeds, I am
sure Ray has it somewhere!
Most of us that grow it remove the pods or it seeds everywhere



Sorry Sacha , i have just deleated your post while trying to do a snip!

Yes I have it, I don't think I could get rid of it from my greenhouse it
comes up everywhere, but I agree its a lovely evergreen scented climber
which I used to be able to grow happily outside on a wall - not any more,
the last two winters have seen it off!
