Bloody Dock – “Blood Veined Sorrel” – Item of the Day — 4 Comments

  1. Jack,

    This was a favorite for me growing up.  Im Hungarian and my mom would make Sorrel, like creamed spinach as a dish.  It has a sweet and tart flavor was delicous.  If you are interested search for “Hungarian Sóskaf?zelék”  Translates to Sorrel Stew.    Thanks again for bring back this memory for me!!!

    • Hey Attila, I was just going to post the same thing. I loved sorrel more than spinach…oh the sweet tart taste I grew up with.

  2. This sorrel looks pretty interesting. Can I recommend a couple of other seed outlets for you? One is Strictly Medicinal. They offer nearly every medicinal herb (and other things). On the herbs, they also give you a good idea on how to plant those particular seed and what their medicinal use is for. Fairly cheap seed. Pretty quick delivery, and easy to contact. I like them. The other is a small Texas based company out of Ben Wheeler. Online orders only I think. That’s Mary’s Heirloom Seed. Good offering and better pricing, often with free shipping. This was my first year to order from them and I was very pleased. Thanks.

  3. As an aside, you may want to do a quick video on sprouting microgreen seeds and how to do quickly with a mason jar for salads and what not. Can get cheaply from Asian grocery stores. In a true grid down scenario, such a simple thing to have.
