Review of Roland Salsifis From Belgium, 14.11-Ounce Cans (Pack of 6)

Salsify is the taproot of a weed (kindof like a carrot or dandelion) called Goatsbeard. They're okay to eat plain.But I use them as an easy, lightly flavorful addition to just about any crock pot recipe, or mashed potatoes - I like saute'ed leeks and turnips in them too. People describe them as having a faint oyster flavor - I wouldn't call it that except for having heard them described that way. Given this, I want to try them in a Thanksgiving stuffing.

Note:the Roland can is well-made - lined, as I think you'd need for this product.

Review of Roland Quail Eggs, 15-Ounce Packages (Pack of 6)

I ordered these quail eggs to make the Japanese "bird's nest salad" that is one of our favorites.Then I found if you use the ginger dressing from that salad to marinate the drained snail eggs with diced or julienned beets you wind up with something that's even BETTER!

These canned snail eggs are just a bit rubbery/chewy on the outside which you expect from an egg which has been cooked twice.The centers are so creamy they remind you of a really great deviled egg.

I'm glad I found these eggs on Amazon because they sure aren't available in any grocery store within reasonable distance of where we live!Thanks, Amazon!
