Have any of you hias ever had the pleasure of eating french sorrel? I've added it to my garden this year. Have you ever eaten the weed - sheep sorrel or sheep sour? It has the same flavor. I can't wait to use it in a salad. It has that delicious tartness. It looks similar to spinach. Whats really cool about it is that its perenniel...any kansas anyway.
I'm also trying lovage and burnet. Lovage has a celery flavor, Burnet has a cucumber taste. Also trying chervil, borage, and fennel. Do any of you hias use any of these herbs?

i simply adore herbs in a salad, and i have heard great things about sorrel, but i have not tried it.
wow - botany boy is well versed in greens!
i have not tried ANY of these things, but they all sure sound fantastic!
i think if botany boy visits this spring/summer, he should bring some greens!!
i am intrigued by these greens and would like to try them. i did grow fennel in hermosa once. i found a recipe for an orange/beet/fennel salad that was scrumptious. it was hard to share as few people are willing to try beets.
i would eat it - i LOVE beets!!
beets are the most fantastic veggie there is. people who dont eat beets should be beaten!
