I just spent three hours pulling weeds out of my garden. Or, to be precise; pulling a weed out of my garden. That weed is commonly known as purslane and it is going to be the death of me. Or, it was until I Googled effective ways to get rid of the weed and discovered that, not only is it edible, but, supposedly quite tasty and higher in Omega 3's than salmon.
Sooooo, I chucked some in a sink full of water and, when it's washed an dried, I am going to try it.
It just might be the most successful thing that my garden has ever produced. I'll let you know.
Please do report on how that stuff tastes.
ReplyDeleteI made a joke to a garden center manager once that I wished that purslane was a cash crop, cuz I can grow bushels of it, and he mentioned is was usable in salads. I'm curious!
