It is delicate in texture with a fresh green flavor like cucumber, but with a fresh, soft salty sea flavor and a burst of juiciness with each little crunch. It was my favorite part of the meal, though the meal was very nice.Joynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600659484694637338.post-81815648755829774542016-06-19T20:59:47.163+01:002016-06-19T20:59:47.163+01:00If I saw this in my area, I would for sure try it....If I saw this in my area, I would for sure try it.

It seemed the contestants on Masterchef used it in just about every dish a couple of years ago and I meant to get some to try then but I still haven't.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600659484694637338.post-8823101322071578232016-06-16T13:08:26.564+01:002016-06-16T13:08:26.564+01:00I've never heard of samphire before--I doubt i...I've never heard of samphire before--I doubt it's even available in my part of the U.S. Very interesting history of this vegetable!
