loll ya i did use swiss chards the other day and was like damn, not bad

but something about kale, it just feels healthy when im eating it

it compliments plenty of dishes to me with just being cooked in a skillet with salt and olive oil!



so i do recognize there are a lot of viable greens for the list... but obviously i have the correct list, taking into account every factor

Thank you! It was definitely yummy and beautifully crisp, but the leftover tofu was sub par and didn't recrisp in the oven the way I was hoping. Next time I'll just cook the amount that I want for that meal.

That said, buttery lemony capery sauce covers a lot of problems. It was still tasty.

Because it tastes like medicine?

I know a couple who broke up because one of them only used the white part of the green onion and threw the rest away.

You gotta distinguish between curly kale which is basically cattle feed, and cavelo nero, which is delicious.

Chard is whatever. My mother in law grew it once and ended up with 10x the crop she was expecting. We had chard everything that year. Not a huge fan since then.

These are my squash plants this year. There are three of them, and if everything goes well, we should get about 5-6 squash bigger than volleyballs but smaller than basketballs.

I'm not going to nitpick any vegetable list even if I disagree with most of it but I do want to put out there that asparagus is a contender for #1.

I like asparagus. I buy it frequently when it's in season in the spring. And then I've had enough asparagus for the year. The most seasonal of vegetables for me.

Also and somewhat related, I think I'm going to make a concerted effort to try and sample a bunch of different heirloom tomato varieties this summer, assuming that the farm markets remain open. I'm very late to that game.

While we're talking fruits and veggies, strawberry season just about over locally so it'll be mostly frozen berries from now on -- a bowl of plain strawberries with just a small scoop of vanilla ice cream might be my favorite summer treat.

I toy with the idea of gardening but other pursuits make it unlikely that I’d put the time in to make it worth it. Thank goodness for farm markets.

Garlic is a solid choice. I always laugh at recipes that call for one minced clove of garlic. I multiply any recipe with garlic by 5x and have never had a dish I thought was too garlicky. It is like butter in that sense.

Yes. Until you go to France and the garlic is the size of your fist and juicy, and you realise the recipe would be fine with one of those cloves.

Also, fresh garlic is great, almost a different vegetable.

Similar - we need to switch now that my major meetings are all over. We're out in the sticks and I think ~5mbps is the most we can really hope for.

That said, I think it's worth giving them a call because there are ways in which they can alter settings or something.

Books and Sun are definitely villagers!

I'm still not convinced garlic is a vegetable, though.

You think I won't take you up on this?

One of my biggest joys is cooking and baking for other people, and since the lockdown, I can't. Watch out, mama-to-be, or I'll show up at your door with a huge pan of baked pasta, a giant fruit salad (I have a really nice agave lime dressing recipe), and a dozen butterscotch brownies!
