In celebration of the country Norway, we yesterday (17th May) harvested a small selection of the best blanched perennial vegetables (apart from the ostrich fern which had to be harvested or it would have been too late). This included three udo species (<em>Aralia cordata<\/em>, <em>Aralia californica<\/em> and <em>Aralia racemosa<\/em>), sea kale (<em>Crambe maritima<\/em>), <em>Hosta<\/em> &#8220;Big Daddy&#8221; together with delicious sweet blanched ramsons (<em>Allium ursinum<\/em>) . They were all eaten raw (apart from the fern which was steamed for 10 minutes) with a Japanese dipping sauce &#8211; olive oil (should have been sesame), tamari (soy sauce) and roasted sesame seeds. These accompanied an onion soup prepared with half of the leaves from one plant of Wietses Onion, a vigorous hybrid of <em>Allium pskemense<\/em> and <em>Allium fistulosum<\/em>!<br \/>It doesn&#8217;t get much better than this!\u00a0 More information with the pictures:<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-30102 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure
