Salsify: Black

Organic World
£3.50 500 g Salsify: Black

Salsify was a favourite during the Victorian era favourite that has fallen out of fashion but it is a wonderful root veg with delicate, creamy flesh that has been compared to everything from oysters to parsnips. It's subtle, delicate, and not too sweet.

Black salsify, also known as scorzonera, has darker skin and crisper flesh. The peak season is quite short, so grab it while you can.

The Romanesco we’ve had from you have been so beautiful – the loveliest I’ve ever had (both looking and tasting). We’re loving all the veg so far.

Interesting 'unusual' veg in the box prompts me to experiment more with recipes. Your mushrooms are amazing! Happy customer.
