Chickweed SaladOrigin: Ancient Period: Traditional |
|
Chickweed is a wild vegetable that's available pretty-much all year round. As a result it must, undoubtedly, have been an important foodstuff in the past. We certainly know that it was harvested and sold as a vegetable during the Medieval period and as it likes ground that's been disturbed it must have been a staple for any agrarian peoples. It's also one of the few wild greens that's available year round. Ingredients:
1 large bunch chickweed
Method:Wash the chickweed, chop coarsely and mix with the apples in a serving bowl. Form a French-style dressing by mixing the olive oil and cider vinegar together. Add the chervil to this, season and pour over the chickweed before serving. |
