Salsify

Slender salsify roots hide beneath grassy leaves, developing a delicate flavor often compared with oysters or artichokes. This patient cool-season vegetable appreciates deep, loose ground and careful harvesting, then rewards cooks with roots suited to roasting, soups, gratins, and mashing.
