Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 chard is my favorite, the nutritional value is off the charts. The leaves cook up similar to spinach, while the stalks cook up crunchier, but not too crunchy, just right, and if you use the red chard it lends a nice deep color to a broth. here is a great site for any food, check out chard: http://whfoods.com/ hey check it out! I went there to get you the link and Chard is the food of the week! what a coinkydink! hugs, Chanda PS some recipes say to cook the stems first then the leaves because the stems take longer. I don't do that. I like the stems the way they come out when cooked with the leaves. They are crunchy, but not crunchy like celery, it's an easy kind of crunchy. - Jefani Edison Wednesday, July 26, 2006 1:45 PM Re: My infamous Spinach Pie Thanks Jefani and a question-PuterWitch Everyone keeps talking about Chard, I think Im going to have to try it.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Thanks for the site. Chard has a certain taste to it, that I have to try and overcome, so hopefully some new recipes will help with that...Uhuru , " PuterWitch " <puterwitch wrote: > > chard is my favorite, the nutritional value is off the charts.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I think the taste is bitterness. I forget who it was that was an expert on plants and said that Americans are trained not to like bitter and there are good bitters and bad bitters and chard can be a good bitter, LOL. hugs, Chanda - Jefani Edison Friday, July 28, 2006 1:07 PM Re: My infamous Spinach Pie Thanks Jefani and a question-PuterWitch Thanks for the site.
