Celery!

[olivia8143]

NAW … painful death is being boiled alive in a large cast iron cooker with angry natives screaming at you and stabbing you with their spears to check your tenderness!

AND adding celery to the pot!

Love raw celery hearts with salt on

I love celery, and it's so versatile. Raw with salt, in Waldorf salad, in seafood salad. Pot roast, stew, soups and poultry dressing just wouldn't taste right without it.

Back in the days when I was trying to be a good cook, I used to sauté a mixture of chopped onion, chopped celery, and chopped carrots, a "good for seasoning everything" concoction.

I love chili in the winter months and I always add a 1/2 cup of thinly sliced celery and the flavor is just satisfying!

I try the taste of most things which grow in my garden.

Last month I spent an hour eating Marigold petals etc - nice!

I just have to try these things!

Nasturtiums are even better.

Daylillies are better!

Daylillies are better!

Interesting, thanks. Not sure I'd trust my flower spotting to get the right lillies!!

Am an expert on the flowers in my garden.
They are ones which occasionally pop up between the zillions of weeds.

I'd already done the google thing off the first suggestion, that's why I know relying on me to get the flower right would be a mistake. I will, however, pass the suggestion to a friend with a finer grasp of horticulture. *grin*

Gosh you give me an appetite!
Love celery and love things picked in the countryside, way better and a lot less poisonous than some of the stuff you buy in the supermarket...
