Recipes from Oil & Vinegar
Nice to know
Samphire is a soft, crispy and slightly salt vegetable from the sea. The tubular shaped vegetable is mostly cut from the marshes in the wild. Samphire is a pioneer plant and no other plant is resistant to the salt conditions. The plant absorbs the salt during their growth, resulting in a salty taste. The plant grows best in a rich organic soil with a lot of nitrogen and with a regular salt water release. Seeds from the largest plant that are closest to the tide line are the best ones, and they have to be collectes in the autumn and sown during spring. When the plant measures around 15 centimeters high, the upper 10 centimeter can be harvested. The other branches will grow further. When cleaning samphire, remove the stiff and woody parts and wash the vegetable short in cold and fast running water. Blanch the vegetables a few minutes or stir-fry vegetables with onion.
Samphire and fish, an excellent combination!
