  • what can i do with a ton of flat leaf parsley?

        Ah..well...plenty of time to think about it!!!

        If all else fails- sling it on the compost in the spring...but it reall is yummy stuff- much more delicate than the bitter curley stuff....maybe now is the time to consider eating more fish???

                  Parsley wine? If you are into wine making.

                    oh i like the sound of parsley and potato soup - think i'll try that one too.

                    well it was a busy busy night here in the Shire and with a very sore back not so easy...yes i know, WHY did i get her to pull it all up when i knew my back was sore???? d'uh!!

                    anyway, i now have wine started, parsley pesto in jars, parsley oil currently dripping into a bottle (!!) and about 6 bags of the stuff in the freezer...oh and my daughters friend is away with a bag of it for her rabbit......not bad for something i thought i would have to chuck on the compost!

                    thanks everyone xx

                      Ditto that ! best salad in the world ( if you like parsley )
                      You have to loose sight of the shore sometimes to cross new oceans

                      I would be a perfectionist, but I dont have the time

                          We have a glut of flat leaved parsley at the moment, What we do is wash the sprays. Trim the tops down to fine sprays. Keep the stalks and freeze them for use in stocks, sauces, etc.

                          We then dry the parsley florettes in the salad spinner until very dry. Chop them finely in the food processor, then very loosely pack into tubs (a la Lakeland). Freeze, and you have fresh chopped parsley to last you throughout the Winter. Loosely packed you can easily scrape the required amount of chopped parsley into any sauce, casserole etc.

                            How about pie mash and liquor?

                            How to Cook Traditional Pie, Mash and Liquor | eHow.com

                            Takes me right back to my youth! There was a great liquor shop in greenwich near the cutty sark ship. Used to go there every sunday. Never got into the eels tho!!

                            Never tried making it myself, too afraid it wouldnt be as I remember it. Love it, love it.

                            You need to have lots of white pepper and vinegar on the liquor tho, and a very strong cup of tea on hand. The best....

                              Shawarma is amazing! I used to live in Saudi Arabia, it was my favourite food out there! Every so often my wife will make it for me - brings back so many memories!!
