You can take from the comments on here with regards yesterdays game you missed nowt, first half was very much on a par with Morecambe.

 

Well done indeed!

Would one of the trophies be the Golden Beet?

I 'think' they should freeze ok if you par-boil them first. Maybe check with someone who knows a bit more than me first though

 

Ta, and I in turn should credit my source: Denys de Saulles' 'Home Grown' (London: MacMillan 1988). It really is an excellent source of info for all the stages of growing and preserving your own fruits & vegetables.

I'm with you @Steelcitybantam, but maybe that's down to our lass's cooking rather than the taste .

 

I don’t mind parsnips, but the other half hates them, too sweet. My son is the same, he put his fork into what he thought was a roast potatoe, it was a parsnip,lol

 

I couldn't even set a "Just Giving" page up never mind an online dating agency.

 

Now if you were talking about Spinach I would completely agree
But parsnips roasted correctly are a taste to behold
Grown them in my veg patch for years

 

Why are you growing or buying it if you don't like it?

 

Interesting.

Trying to eat more of it, but not a huge fan. Not bad roasted.

 

Can't beat gherkins or beetroot.

 

If we radish prices?

 

Or why not 'What's in @Bronco's Onion Bag?'

 

Would a veggie be allowed some of the ingredients above, 4 cups fresh pig's blood,2 cups finely diced pork fat (or beef suet), finely chopped ?.

 

STEELCITYBANTAM !!!!!!!
Substitute Beetroot juice for the pigs blood and knock out the Beef/Pork
and there you have Veggie Black Pudding

Not a 'dish' on it's own - but an adaptable compliment, one for all year round ........... Quick, and easy

Finely sliced Leek, sliced (fresh) peppers, a 'nip' of Parsley - all tossed and flash fried (in butter) - Served with a Fish dish, with a quick squeeze of Lemon.

OR - The same Leek and peppers with added fresh sliced mushrooms - all tossed with a pinch of garlic, Basil and Black pepper. Serve with any meat dish.
Particularly popular with Bar Bee Que (Burger / Hot dogs etc) ............ Can be cooked in a foil parcel, on the edge of the grill. NB - Don't over cook, because soft and greasy is off putting !

(Substitute the Black pepper for Oregano, if serving as a possible topper for Garlic Bread )

 

wonder if we're looking at any Swedes in the January window?
