High winds on our ridge today have made it an indoor only work day. Do have a bunch of Day Lilies inherited with the house in need of dividing and moving. I have heard that these are edible. Anyone, particularly from #permies group, have a good recipe for these? Let me know. #homesteading #permaculture #garden #gardening #foodstr #grownostr
The leaves apparently have a hallucinogenic effect 😬, the flowers are delicious raw I eat them while in the garden all the time. On a serious note never eaten the greens cooked, they do get fibrous when older. Check pfaf.org
Got this recipe from pacific northwest forage book: Daylilies with ginger and red bell peppers on rice.
1/2 teaspoon salt
11/2 cups rice
3 cups water
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 red bell pepper, cut into long thin slices
3 cups fresh daylily buds
Cook rice
Combine vinegar, soy sauce, water and sugar until dissolved. 5 minutes before rice is done, heat oil in skillet or wok until very hot. add ginger and stir briefly. Add red bell peppers and stir a few times quickly. Stir in vinegar mixture. Toss daylily buds to mix well. Cook just until daylily buds are heated through. Serve with hot rice.
Thank you for sharing this; I ‘ll check it out 🙏🏻
Super simple dessert
6 daylily flowers
3 cups raspberry sorbet
3/4 cup fresh raspberries
6 sprigs fresh mint
Pick flowers in the morning. Wash them and remove stamens refrigerate in covered bowl.
When time fore dessert, place each daylily flower in a goblet (whatever!) fill each with 1/2 cup raspberries sorbet. Top with 1/8 cup fresh raspberries and sprig of mint. Serve immediately.
Ooooooo; now there’s a recipe that I can go for easily 😃☕️✨
I ate daylily last year. I probably boiled for a short period and ate with soy sauce.
But this looks good too. All Japanese but you will get the idea from the image.
Pasta.
Thank you @tomoko. 🙏🏻😃
