Sadly, I will probably pull these out, cut up the leaves, blanch, and freeze for the winter. I did put in a new row of seeds along my tomatoes so hopefully they will grow. If not, we will start again in the fall.
We've tried some of these, and some are on our "to make" list. If you have any recipes you make, please, leave a comment and share with us.
- Sauteed with onion and squeeze of lemon
- Sauteed with fried or poached egg (for breakfast)
- Chard ravioli (use wanton wrappers for fast recipe), with ricotta and and pinch petter
- Saute with shallot, pinch of sugar (palm or brown), and belachan (shrimp paste)
- Cut into ribbons and added to dahl curry (yellow lentils with or without coconut milk)
- Substitute or mix with cabbage for colcannon recipe.
- Cut into fine ribbons, stir fry on high heat with mix of turmeric, pinch salt, and handful of fresh grated coconut. Mix till glossy and slightly wilted.
