We started with a rainy walk. Picked the last of the collards. Started a pot of beans. Made a doggie birthday cake for Josie. Happy birthday, Josie!

Eat The Weeds - #WaterHyacinth Woes
Water Hyacinth Stir Fry
"The state of #Florida minces no words about the water hyacinth: '#EichhorniaCrassipes is one of the worst weeds in the world — aquatic or terrestrial.' They apparently have not tried them deep fried with butter, or steamed like mustard greens with a bit of bacon or pork fat.
"Water Hyacinths, a member of the pickerelweed family, are born nearly pregnant adults. … Okay, that might be an exaggeration but they can double in population in as little as two weeks. One plant in one season can multiply to cover one acre. They caused a serious threat to Florida waterways not long ago and have only been fought to a constant draw. If the state were to stop fighting for one season the weed would get the permanent upper hand. In Panama, it would make the canal impassible in three years if not kept under control.
"Of course, the other view is here is a plant that can feed you again in two weeks. That’s not a bad return if you’re starving or need green vegetables for a balanced diet. Even when viewed as an edible there are two down sides: While young leaves and stems can be eaten cooked or raw, raw they give quite a few people the itches, and cooked they still make a few people itch. So you have to sort that out before you eat too many.
"And very much like lichen, water hyacinths can absorb and hold just about any chemical pollutant around. Moral of the story, collect them from only clean waters. Never collect them down stream from any mine because mining can cause toxins. On the other hand, if I were selling hydroponics foods in a state that has a real winter to limit escape, this would be a plant I would experiment with: Fast growing, reproduces easily with about the same leaf texture of some seaweeds.
"The deep fried bottoms are more along the lines of deep fried pork rinds. Some writers say water hyacinth is tasteless but I have found when cooked to be close in texture and taste to a mild #CollardGreens. It always retains some 'tooth.' "
[...]
"Water hyacinth is a good cattle fodder, chicken feed, mulch. dry fuel, mushroom growing medium, cigar wrappers, furniture and fertilizer. It is also a fantastic biomass for making alternative fuels. Florida should be thinking of water hyacinths as 'green' oil, Florida Tea, a sustainable source of fuel. Instead, it’s a 'weed' they don’t know what to do with. (See my 14 March 2008 blog.) The water hyacinth’s leaves are a source of vitamins A, B1 and B2 and betacarotene. They contain 18.7% protein, 17.1% fiber and 36.6% carbohydrates. Each year, the state of Florida spends some $15 million to control it. Some of that control is by spraying poisons, so be careful where you collect hyacinths."

“Leftover Stir Fry.” I thought it came out pretty good.
Last week we were gifted an entire head of collard greens, which I cooked Southern style with bacon and smoked ham. The recipe said to throw away the stems, which I found appalling: I sampled the stems and thought they tasted like broccoli, so I saved them. Worked well here, along with leftover bratwurst, onions, chard stems, mushrooms, and green beans.

What do #broccoli, #cabbage, #cauliflower, #brusselssprouts, #collardgreens, #kohlrabi, and #kale all have in common? The answer is… their #species!
Kale and cabbage and the others are the same plant. A wild mustard plant (Brassica oleracea) was the original source of the diverse forms of #Brassica that we are familiar with today. All these forms of Brassica oleracea were the result of artificial selection by early #farmers and plant breeders.

@Hellybootwader I am just at the very beginning of my journey of learning about perennial vegetables and growing in the UK. I am familiar with Jerusalem artichoke which I love but don't want to plant in the ground as they will overtake our garden. This year, concentrated on food from my culture which can grow in Wales but is not sold or if it is, it's expensive #mustardgreens #collardgreens #callaloo #okra #goatpepper

This is the black eyed pea hummus I'll be making for good luck tomorrow. #newyear #2023
There are many stories about why those of us with Southern (USA) roots eat #blackeyedpeas and/or #collardgreens and/or #cornbread on #newyear day. Maybe they're all a little true. But, I figure it can't hurt to follow this family tradition. I've been making this hummus for the last 3 years. It gets eaten every year!

Happy #Thanksgiving, to those celebrating in the U.S. This is what I ate at my family's get-together. My extended #Family does unfortunately cook a turkey, but all of the sides were made #Vegan. My mom even made me some stuffed squash. 'Twas #Delicious, and it filled me up.
I also made #Cookies.
