Save our souls!
Here is a selection of rare, peculiar, bizzare-shaped or simply very tasty vegetables!
For several years, it has been easier to have access - through big retailers- to some varieties of tomatoes or potatoes. But knowing how many other varieties actually exist for each type of vegetables, you quickly realise there is no choice at all!
Parnsip
A long time ago, I was widely consumed in Europe. How comes I am now almost forgotten? It is because of this flash-looking one…the carrot!
I make delicious soups, I can be baked or even eaten with crêpes! Actually, I do everything that the carrot can do. So why don't you use me?
Red Orache
I was a victim of the spinach. I don't even understand why you continue to eat him…everyone knows it is not good (especially the children). I'll do the same job as the spinach and I have even this tiny pepper taste. You can even find me in yellow and green version, isn't that great?
Lathyrus sativus
I taste like the snow pea. But why have you chosen him? I don't think he can be use as a Delikatessen! And have you seen my flower? Who wouldn't want to use me as a decoration?
Sea Kale
I am the handyman. You can eat my shoots, my leaves, my roots.
You can also use me as a decorative plant. Still not convinced?
