I've also made a note of your warning about the leaves - I had not heard of that before. the chilli flakes are lovely too - I was actually wondering how you would grind them to get that "flaky" texture - what a great tip!Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-28828744869504276872015-11-23T19:22:15.275-08:002015-11-23T19:22:15.275-08:00Your garden is always such an inspiration!Your garden is always such an inspiration!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03932975112078606231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-34379989486422783652015-11-23T16:43:11.148-08:002015-11-23T16:43:11.148-08:00Too bad about the rust, but the leeks still look w...Too bad about the rust, but the leeks still look wonderful!

The tamed Mareko Fanas have a definite zing but don't require a beer quencher. They are about as spicy as pizza parlor pepper flakes. If I was scrupulous about removing the ribs they would be even more mild.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-78557196051183827542015-11-23T12:29:30.710-08:002015-11-23T12:29:30.710-08:00Your parsnips and broccoli look to be doing very w...Your parsnips and broccoli look to be doing very well. That's too bad about the leeks, it's crazy how prolific the rust is.

Interesting you found a use for the Mareko Fanas. I prepared some of my Aji Angelo and Aji Panca peppers the same way by removing the seeds and membranes. It sure does reduce the heat and lets me enjoy the peppers more.

I have grown Gladiator before - it is a popular variety here. I have never had any problems with skin irritations caused by Parsnip leaves, so perhaps they only affect certain types of skin. Likewise I have not been troubled with Rust on my Leeks, though I expect my time will come!!Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.com
