What is that goofy, green, almost pear shaped vegetable you see in the market?
Chayote is a heart-healthy vegetable that takes on the flavors that surround it.
Tip from Elizabeth: When pealing, do so Under Running Water, or you will experience a drying feeling on your hands from it's juices. (If this happens, aleve with hand lotion.)
Today at Big Daddy's ... and while it lasts... a bowl of Chayote/Saffron soup made from Chayotes from Elizabeth's garden, Lemon Grass, Saffron, even Mandarins from our tree! ...and other, more Secret Spices. Served with a Warmed, Personal Loaf of Bread ... only $5.50.
Chayote is a heart-healthy vegetable that takes on the flavors that surround it.
- It grows easily on vines and is abundant in Panama.
- It can be eaten raw, in tender slices, and added to enhance salads.
- Or it can be lightly steamed, chilled, and added to egg or tuna salads.
- You can also boil it and mix it up along with potatoes or cauliflower to serve as a hot vegetable, seasoned with butter, salt & pepper.
- Many people don't know that you can use the young leaves to make a daily tea for heart and kidney health.
