How To Prepare Rock Samphire

0 Comments

 
Instructions
  1. Wash thoroughly. If it is freshly foraged from the wild it is even more important. Treat as if you have picked from your own allotment.
  2. Discard any brown leaves and debris. 
  3. Trim off any of the thicker stalks.
Basic Cooking
  • If using as a garnish or adding to salad - Drop in boiling water and blanch for 1 minute. Drain and refresh under cold running water.
  • If serving as a side dish - Steam for 10 minutes, or simmer for 7-8 minutes.
  • Or add to recipe as it recommends.
  • You can use it raw but the flavour is much stronger.
