Thanks again for your suggestion.<br /><br />Every year, my father can get lots of seri from the yard around the house, but something quite strange has happened this year. He can get absolutely no seri from the yard! That's why he has to buy bunches of seri from the supermarket.Hiroyukihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075672590298671343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101980281470446262.post-87144185744403662262017-03-09T02:20:31.574+09:002017-03-09T02:20:31.574+09:00Seri really is an early vegetable, my seri has sho...Seri really is an early vegetable, my seri has shown much new growth since - I think - around February despite the fact that it's still rather cold hereabouts. Perfect to satisfy that craving of green vegetables that I sometimes experience at this time of the year. Inexplicable, because of course fresh vegetables are available in any grocery all around the year. I seem to remember that sometimes seri is differentiated in two types, one of which prefers a wetter habitat?<br /><br />I'm sure you and your father know that one can grow seri out of cuttings? Seri often sends out offshoots anyway, it can be a bit of a weed. I cut off some stalks, place them in water until short roots appear. I've propagated most of my seri plants that way. The original cutting often dies off but numerous vigorous new shoots soon appear. One can probably skip the placement in water and try planting them directly in moist soil.<br /><br />Regards, PhilipAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101980281470446262.post-28880128033807828732017-03-05T07:22:29.891+09:002017-03-05T07:22:29.891+09:00seeandoh: Some people say that cilantro and parsle...seeandoh: Some people say that cilantro and parsley are similar in flavor, while others don't. It may be interesting to try them to see how they taste when combined with rice.<br /><br />Side dish?

I keep learning about new dishes every time you put something up.<br /><br />I have two questions:<br />1. Is seri entirely different in taste from the normal celery?<br />2. Does seri gohan need to have sesame seeds sprinkled on top before serving?<br />Thanks.Khashnoreply@blogger.com
