It keeps pretty well, too, being a root and all. But the dip would totally taste good with artichokes! <br />You already finished <i>four pounds of asparagus</i>?? It must have been heavenly good! Oh--and where on earth did you find an asparagus peeler?

It's the root you eat:-) And it really does resemble the taste of artichoke--plus lots of healthy fiber. I like to add it to meals because it really fills you up (and I can get away with less meat).

Or...I could just make that dressing and dip my artichokes in it. We just had artichokes this week, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to be on one of those kicks for the coming weeks.<br />Oh, and we finished the last of the Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14137207492303218465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7027119346366147543.post-57769574174106275942011-05-14T17:34:29.484+09:002011-05-14T17:34:29.484+09:00I had *no* idea you could eat burdock!

It so happens, that I, age 7, and my sister, age 5, found some of these leaves, and we figured Josephinehttp://lostinsophistication.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
