Item description
This listing is for 50 Spiny Sow Thistle (Sonchus asper) seeds
Common names include Sharp-fringed Sow Thistle, Prickly Sow Thistle, Spiny Sow Thistle, or Spiny-leaved Sow Thistle.
Its edible leaves make a palatable and nutritious leaf vegetable.
I collect the sap of this one.
FREE RECIPE:
BUTTERED SOW-THISTLE
1 or 2 handfuls sow-thistle leaves ? young
Butter or oil
Beef stock or water
Ground nutmeg ? pinch
1 tsp. flour
Salt and pepper
For this recipe the young 2- to 4-inch leaves of common sow-thistle
[Sonchus oleraceus] are best and when the leaves are not bitter.
Other sow-thistle species may need their spines trimming off and
may be bitter to the taste requiring some preparatory boiling.
Heat some butter or oil in a pan and add the leaves. Stir thoroughly to
coat the leaves. Add a good slug of stock or water, reduce the heat to a
simmer and cover. Cook for about 5 to 10 minutes. Add a pinch of nutmeg,
the flour and some seasoning. Stir everything, then add another knob of
butter and melt into the sow-thistle over a low heat.
Serve.
