Weirdly beautiful but bizarre looking. So interesting that is actually edible.
Yes! The older leaves grow hairs on them, so people tend to cook them in soups or stews to soften it up and make the texture less evident. Its a very interesting herb overall.
Do you know if this plant is commonly used in recipies/cooking in Europe?
I know its a common herb to add to soups and other dishes in Germany, but I don't know much about the cuisines of the surrounding countries.
I would love to try it someday. Hopefully I can visit Germany in the nearish future.
