I make them into soup, and then put them through a Mouli to get any stringy bits out.K's Garden blog the story of the creation of our garden

Soup or stock here
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

Ditto for all the woody cores of Parsnip, tough stalks of Broccoli, peelings off veg ... any veg left on the side of anyone's plate ... all sorts really!
I have a Soup Maker - grand name for a liquidiser with a heating element in it and a button you can press that lets you walk away and come back again when it Beeps 20 minutes laterK's Garden blog the story of the creation of our garden

I also make soup out of mine. I slice them into thin rounds (so you get no long fibrous bits) bung them in the pot with onion, veg stock and lots of black pepper. After a fairly brief simmer I whizz it up with a hand blender and serve with lemon zest or a poached egg on top.
ETA: I do cut the very ends off if they're really woody (this goes in the slow cooker for the chooks to munch on with their peelings/egg shells)Last edited by TheChemist; 28-03-2015, 10:50 AM.

I was going to say "too much work for me" but thinking about it chopping may be less work than Mouli-ing ... might even be able to run them through the MandolineK's Garden blog the story of the creation of our garden
