Eible Watercress
"Gareee©" wrote in message ... watercress is only availabel in my local stores if someone requests it, and I also found it very bitter.. almost a strong mustardy taste. The wife also found it distasteful, and I can;t imagien havinbg a watercress sandwich. OTOH, the fish gobbled all of it right up, faster then it could grow.. seems my guys will eat any plant I toss in there! -- Gareee (Gary Tabar Jr.) Not to be off-topic, but the best watercress is flowering nasturtum, which I grew in my regular garden for many year. The seeds come in packets like any other flower. My sister-in-law was taken aback that anyone would serve her FLOWERS! But the blossoms are as delicious as the leaves, maybe even more so. I'm a sucker for the stems, too. Peppery and light, they add something to a salad. The flowers make a lovely accent on top, and instead of parsley to beautify a plate. I live in a cooler climate, though. -- kat ^.^ Welcome to Malaria Gardens Mosquito rides Now Open for the Season Please hold tightly to small children and pets Rhinelander, WI |
