Randall | What is Callaloo? |
Ami Anne | quote: Originally posted by Randall: What is Callaloo?
It is Jamacian(sp) My friend knows a Jamacian guy who is a super gardener and he is gonna get me some to taste. It is like spinach. I bought some seeds, anyway, cuz i want to juice it. I don't care if it tastes funky lol ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Randall | Sounds delicious. |
Ami Anne | Yep, just got the seeds. They are teeny and have to be started in small pots. My goal is to grow greens because those are the best for juice. I juice 3 cups of greens a day So, collard greens, malabar spinach and callaloo can take the heat. ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Randall | Can the seeds be eaten? I hear chia seeds are yummy...you know, from the chia pets. Ch-ch-ch-chia! |
Ami Anne | No chia seeds are different. With these, they have to be planted. I mean, you could eat them but they are the tiniest seeds I have ever seen but they are ready to be eaten as full plants in 30 days which is rare. The plants are coming up. They have everything good but i wonder how they taste ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Which seeds, Randall? ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Randall | Chia |
Ami Anne | Yes, chaia can be used to thicken anything. I have some here but have not used them like you can thicken a smoothie or something like that with chai seeds like make a banana pudding or something of that nature. ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire.

Ami Anne | I go a bunch of full grown callaloo plants. excited to try them in a few days but they need to sit and root for a few days. They are really pretty ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Randall | Small leaves like spinach? |
Ami Anne | They are bigger but a really, pretty shape. ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/
|
Ami Anne | I have not tried one yet but I really want them to juice so even if I don't like them, I don't care but how bad could a spinach like veggie be The collards are almost gone, so I need to plant more greens. I will keep you posted how they taste, Randall. I really like to try exotic foods and they are a Jamaciian staple so that makes them more interesting. ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire.
