  7. I am #experimenting with #cooking, making twice-cooked (par-boiled and then roasted in pork fat) #chips out of #Kumara (sweet potato for you non-kiwis) and #Carrot since tomorrow is shopping day, we are out of #potato and they’re both needing using.

  8. Seven months after planting out, I harvested 7.5 kg of #Kūmara (#SweetPotato) out of the #garden. At current Woolworths' prices, that's about $30 worth or about 20x my initial investment! Not bad from one store bought kūmara!🍠

  9. @xLontrax
    I saw "sweet potatoes" so I searched for Kumara Koji, and voila:
    "Kuro-Kirishima Kumara Shochu Vodka
    Kumara Vodka from Miyazaki, Japan
    Volume: 720ml
    Alcohol: 25%"
    #Kumara sweet potatoes are a staple here in #NZ, and have been since before any of us pakeha arrived.

  14. #Kūmara 🍠 (#SweetPotato) update: I've pried the tipu 🌱 (shoots) off the parent tuber, placed them in a glass of water and roots are sprouting. Next stop the #garden

  15. "A kiwi ice cream company is using reject gold kumara that would otherwise be destined for landfill to make gelato. Island Gelato Co. says recent flooding has seen the price of kumara reach record highs... but at the same time mishapen, outsized and over ripe Kumara are being dumped. So it started working with food producers to rescue the root vege and turned it into ice cold gold."

  16. CW: Breakfast

    My turn to make breakfast

    #Thyme roasted #tomatoes, #asparagus , #zucchini, eggs fried in butter and crisped #salami, #sage, #oregano and #capers. #kumara hash and #chilli, sprinkled with #parmesan

  17. I have no success in growing Kumara yet, but I have learned that the Maori used this method for propagating them:

    They planted some tubers in a bed where they had not been grown before, then when the sprouts were long enough to harvest they broke them off, put a twist in the bottom end to prevent them from pulling out of the ground easily, and planted each sprout to begin a new plant.
