My car dwarfed by weeds, especially burdock.

On this day in 365 Urban Species: Birdsfoot trefoil.

Mmmm burdock...

How do you prepare it?

[(Anonymous)]

dig up the root, wash and peel it. I usually put it in soups or stews. You can find it sold in asian markets either fresh or pickled (it's called gobou in japanese and it's roughly the same in chinese. The name has something to do with cows...)
