Lucifer Box - fresh produce alert

[nobody here but us chicke]

sparrowgrass

We've just planted some in raised beds in the garden - just have to wait a couple of years before harvest. meanwhile its down the farm.

As a trad eater, I like it steamed, with butter, black pepper and bread - which brings me to a Q.

I have tried several recipies for a good dark rye bread - never had much success though. Im after something like the village bakery stuff.

Suggestions please oh epicurian gurus...

It's called spargle in Germany and generates almost religious fervour. Can't get anything in a restaurant without it when it's in season.

The shops are full of it here too. I'll be trying out LB's cooking method this weekend.

Dodgy, of course, can bring his frozen garlic bread and boil in the bag meal for one so that he doesn't feel overwhelmed.

Let me know how it goes! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

To NHBUChickens: Yes, I made some nice dark rye bread a couple of weeks ago. The trick is to put in some dark muscovado sugar (or black treacle if you like it really dark) and to glaze it with butter as soon as it comes out of the oven. Scrummy.

Very good, we need more high brow humour like this here.

There you go threaded me ol' mucker...
