Carrots, Parsnips & other roots
Salsify (Tragopogon porrifolius) € ()
This is a root vegetable that goes back to the middle ages. Pulled in winter it has long tapering roots with a distinct flavour – some say oyster-like, delicious in vegetable stew says Peter. If left in the ground – the flavour is perhaps the ornamental gardener’s best kept secret as all summer long they bloom with brilliant purple large daisy-like flowers. The seed puff balls are like golden orbs in sunlight.
