Quoting Janis Kracht to Jim Weller <=-

Gardoons are the best

I read that as cardoons at first.

gardoons (burdock)

I've seen it both ways.. Most people spell it cardoons I think.

They're two separate but related vegetables. Cardoons are thistles,
related to artichokes, with edible stems. They are also called
artichoke thistles and globe artichokes.

Gardoons are burdock, also a thistle with edible stems (and roots)
and really sticky, prickly burrs.

Tonight's green veg was Shanghai bok choy in a turkey and rice
soup. (We had roasted a 22 pound turkey on Saturday which got
chopped into small portions and froze most of them.)





Cheers

Jim


... GMO food bad for you? I just had a nice leg of salmon and I feel fine.
