My cousin married a Potato Farmer a few years back. She told me one day that potato’s grown by yourself is so much more tastier than the ones we buy. Although I haven’t had the privilege to taste home grown potato’s yet, I can say the same about Spinach. After the lovely rain we had the last couple of weeks, our Spinach has shot to the sky.

I agree with Della, the best vegetable I produce in my garden
Maybe because it is grown with love.
Potatoes are like corn and freshly plucked ones are much tastier. I believe that the sugars turn to starch over time and some flavor is lost. Sweet corn and potatoes eaten the day they are harvested are the best anyway.
That’s true. The corn has to be cooked on a barbeque with lots of butter and salt. I am making myself hungry now.
An easy and delicious recipe.
Spinach with rice
NECESSARY PRODUCTS
500 g of spinach
1 hrs. rice
70 g butter
1 hrs. yoghurt
3-4 cloves of garlic
salt
METHOD OF PREPARATION
The spinach is cleaned and washed, then cut and stew in the butter until softening. Add the rice and water. It’s getting ready for rice. In a separate container, yogurt is made with crushed garlic and this sauce is seasoning the dish
Ooooh thank you very much. I will most definitely try it.
Home grown potatoes sound great right now. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you my friend.
My father always had a garden (our last three houses are in neighborhoods that don’t allow gardens). I miss his tomatoes!
That’s terrible Doc! I can only imagine.
So lovely! I agree that home grown vegetables are always tastier!
And to my surprise we had Home Grown Spinach quiche last night! It was so delicious.
Sounds delicious, even though I’m not the biggest fan of spinach. It’s very healthy though!
Yes indeed we used to dig potatoes from the ground, oh my goodness they were delicious.
It takes a lot of scrubbing of course to get them clean.
Oh wow, you lucky girl. I can imagine that but worth the effort.
Spinach? I want it! I want your spinach, Della!
By the way, do you think I’m wild?
Sssst… Don’t tell anyone, please… I am a metal fan….
Hehehehe. Good choice Albert! There is a Meme on facebook that says, all the best people are crazy lol.
Crazy is one of the most melodious compliments in my ears … For me just like that, not for I’m the best.
It is tastier of course coz it was showered with love and attention and prolly heard the grower singing a tune while watering it. So yes I agree. ?
I watched a documentary once where they tested the effects of Metal and Classical music on plants actually. It was amazing to see. The Classical music plants were beautiful while the Metal Plants looked wild.
