Favorite Vegetable (to eat)?

Post by steve-in-kville »

We need a food thread.

What is your favorite vegetable?

Cooked?

Fresh?

Some other way?

Cooked- haven't eaten something I didn't like. We roast veggies in the oven.... asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots.... you name it, we most likley tried it.

Raw & Fresh? My go to is radishes. Weird, I know.

Pickles and olives are a favorite as well.

Radishes are good. Sweet pickles as well. Baked beans are tasty and I have to say are my favorite. I do like most veg: root veg, marrows, beans and leafy greens.

Favorite cooked veggie? Green beans- steamed not pressure cooked. Asparagus. Love many roasted veggies.

Fresh veggie? Garden grown and ripe tomato. Raw string beans fresh from the garden. Fresh carrot from the garden grown late summer into fall- there is a huge difference in sweetness as to when it is grown.

Other way? Fresh cucumbers in cucumber and onion salad with vinegar and sweetened some.

I don't even know what is a vegetable, a fruit, or if legumes are a type of vegetable, or in a class by themselves. But a tomato is a fruit, not a vegetable, I'm often told. (But please don't make a tomato cream pie, or serve them with ice cream. And I don't want tomato jelly, either.) Are tubers a type of vegetable? I'm confused. :?

Asparagus and artichokes.

I also love fresh home-grown tomatoes. But we can debate whether they are a vegetable or fruit.

I like them all, but fennel is very special, great taste, super versatile from raw to cooked, super healthy. Give it a go if it‘s not already on your menues.

We didn't grow tomatoes this past year, and I regret that. Next year I plan to. Cherokee Purple or Old German. Excellent varieties.

Maybe jalapeño peppers raw (but cut up and in moderation). Plain cooked favorite is sweet potatoes. As part of a dish, butternut squash as "pumpkin" pie.

We have lots of each on hand right now from the garden. I'm happy.
