Salsify seed
Salsify
Tragopogon porrifolius
Ancient root vegetable from the daisy family. Tasty roots grown and cooked as you would parsnip. Seedlings look like grass so don't weed them by accident! They hold well in the ground over winter.
Spring shoots , well before the flowers form, are a delicious early vegetable, best eaten lightly braised. Seed doesn't store well, so replant the best few roots for seed saving.
