Chinese Parsley



Chinese parsley I planted, seeds I brought back from Hawai'i, beginning to sprout. Finally got around to planting a little over a week ago. It'll be a while yet before I get to enjoy.
Update Saturday - Lots more have germinated!

When the daily outside temps get to be about 60, then I'll sow my cilantro seeds in a huge planter. Please keep us updated as your mini herb garden grows!

Brought back Chinese mustard cabbage (gai choy) to try and grow here. Funny that isn't any at all, never seeing it in all the years I've been here.

I used to HATE Chinese Parsley as a kid. Now as an adult, I can't get enough of the stuff. Love it. Good for the blood stream.

Odd as this sounds, it's fantastic in a Tuna Sandwich.

I also add Cilantro whenever making Chinese style ginger "pesto", da'kine you put on top of cold ginger chicken.

Gosh, you mean Okinawa doesn't even have Gai Choy? I still can't understand the absence of Chinese foods there, when almost the entire foundation of their culture roots back to China as much as it does Japan.

pomai - Cold ginger chicken, another favorite of mine! Yah, strange about no Chinese parsley here. Have never seen it as a garnish on any foods here.
