The rainy season, which came early this year and has disappeared for the past two weeks, has brought a plethora of purslane (verdolaga en español) to the rooftop garden. Most every planter and pot is filled with this uninvited, but much welcome, herb. And, it always inspires me to be a little more creative in the kitchen.
Purslane is not only versatile and delicious, WebMD sings its praises when it comes to its health benefits.
All your dishes look mighty tasty!
They were! I’m finding ways to use the verdolaga most every day.
