They are, I think, a little more "squashy" in taste than courgette but not so squashy that you can't eat it raw on a salad. I personally like them sliced and sauteed with black pepper and olive oil as a side dish.<br /><br />I grew one (!) last year on my allotment on London. Yours looks great.marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14834133837165950700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8221032428937703036.post-24320108652273900342010-07-01T10:31:44.692+01:002010-07-01T10:31:44.692+01:00Lovely route home!

You must tell me how you end up using your swedes - it's a bit of a mystery vegetable to me, but a staple in late season's organic box. And BTW, that zucchini from a previous post was EPIC. I think you should stuff the other half with something yummy. ;-)Monicahttp://smarterfitter.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8221032428937703036.post-60612522232316972312010-06-30T17:41:04.513+01:002010-06-30T17:41:04.513+01:00I love St. Albans, we're from Luton and Harpen...I love St. Albans, we're from Luton and Harpenden originally and so know it quite well. It's great finding places - sort of secret ones around where you live - that you didn't know existed!<br /><br />Your swedes look great, much bigger than mine.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14154288055388731546noreply@blogger.com
