"Did you know Burdock (Arctium) is not just an invasive plant but also a delicious and versatile vegetable? Brought here as a food source, has since escaped into the wild. The leaves are perfect for wrapping fish or veggies before grilling, infusing them with a very unique, earthy anise flavor. The stalk can be diced like celery or rhubarb and uses similarly. The real star, though, is the long starchy root with a texture and flavor that’s a cross between a carrot and a potato. When harvested before the plant goes into flower is a great vegetable. It’s very hard to dig the whole root, so most wild roots regenerate regardless of digging making it invasive, yet a very resilient food source. For countless recipe ideas using the root, google 'gobo' for recipes.
Happy foraging, friends!"-- credit goes to Eating the Ozarks (Facebook)
