You get use to them when you have to. I just wish there was other flavors than just plain. Actually there is a lot old ways of cooking I had to give up but at least there ways to around some of the taste problems.
Yes low foods that time to get use to. As the potato chips I just wish there was other flavors as I miss my sour cream and onion ones.
Boy you that right home grown is a lot better taste wise plus you how it was grown. I even grew my self a few pineapples boy what difference than those so called fresh pineapples in the stores.I really miss my fruit trees since I moved and it does take time to get seedlings big enough to produce fruit.
Sweet potato leaves is one I haven't heard of. I might try those next Summer. DO cook them or just eat them raw?
Both
Small , about the size of your biggest coin , fresh whole or rough chopped.
Like a lot of things they get bitter as they grow ( discourages leaf chewing bugs ) but up to about 3" across they get chopped fine & actually taste really good on sweet potatoe chips .
Any bigger & it is cooked into curries or stews , I would not sit down to a bowl of boiled leaves , goes well with basil ( I have 6 different basils ) to counter the sweetness , expecially is mixed with any nut oil as a dressing for baked tomatoes.
My problem was because OZ has no iodine in our soils ( or any other iodide metals , Sellenium ,Tellurium etc ) I got an iodide metals defficency because that is added to Aust table salt and we were not eating much in the way of salt. In fact now because table salt use has diminished or been replace with "mystic" red rock salt , Iodides are now added to all commercial baking flours.
I now add an Iodine metal micro fertalizer , designed for hydro gardening to the compost which seems to have worked .
I can eat butter , and the favourite lazy meal is a single patatoe & single onion 90 seconds on #8 topped with garlic or ginger butter & sprinkled with fine diced young carrot tops served with mixed green leaves tossed in sessame or peanut oil, takes about 3 minutes .
If you can't eat butter then substitute Hummus for the butter.
Really lazy snack is seaweed rice crackers with one of the home made hummuses.
Got a receipe out of a vegan cook book for egg plant hummus , never thought of doing that and have been doing variations on it for decades.
largely use hummus as a substitute for butter in dressings and on bread to replace butter or margurine
