lord_seagrave Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Chaps, If you’ve got an oriental market or know of a stall holder/greengrocer with lots of Asian customers, you might well come across “tong hao” which is an edible kind of daisy, grown for its leaves. The taste is VERY herbaceous, but it makes a delicious side dish once you get a taste for it. The stems keep their crunch, and it’s not easily overcooked. Any preparation (steamed/boiled/sautéed/stir-fried) benefits from a splash of soy sauce, a bit of garlic and a pinch of five-spice. It’s particularly delicious if boiled briskly for a few minutes, squeezed dry and then chopped finely and added to an omelette, tortilla or scrambled eggs. Anyway, hopefully I’ve inspired you to try something new. LS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
