It can be a lot of fun trying out some of these rather odd-looking vegetables, knowing that while they seem new, they are actually quite old. Look out for them at (organic) supermarkets, farmers markets and wholefood stores.
Some examples of forgotten vegetables:
- Beets
- Black salsify
- Black radish
- Celeriac
- Crosne
- Jerusalem artichoke
- Kohlrabi
- Parsnips
- Purslane
- Samphire/sea beans
- Sorrel
- Swede
- Turnips
- Turnip-rooted parsley
- Turnip tops/greens
