Samphire

£3.50

A European plant of the parsley family, which grows on rocks and cliffs by the sea and is a delicacy found here in Southport. Its aromatic fleshy leaves are sometimes eaten as a vegetable.Look for the vibrant green stalks, similar to baby asparagus, with a distinctively crisp and salty taste. It can be used raw in salad, though it tends to be very salty so it is more often boiled or steamed for a few minutes. £2 for 100g.
