Though there are many more to choose from, hairy bittercress cardamine hirsuta (the name belies its edible qualities) completes my gourmet trinity of spring weeds. They pop up just about anywhere on bare ground and produce distinctive florets of cress shaped leaves. The young growth has a wonderfully peppery tang, almost identical to the cultivated cress of windowsill fame. Fresh or cooked, bittercress will give a wild kick to all sorts of dishes including salads, tarts and pasta dishes. Welcome then to the enlightened world of weeding, where with the prospect of a good meal every pull is a pleasure, every dig delight! Please remember that the correct identification of edible plants is vital! Use a decent field guide, or search the web using a plant’s Latin name, for information and images from reputable web sites.
