A while back Mark Hix and I headed to Clarence Court HQ down in Cornwall, where we spent a morning being introduced to the various feathered creatures and generally enjoying being out in the fresh air of the southwest. The great discovery was pennywort, a wild herb whose emerald buds taste like a particularly bitter but delicious asparagus. Mark served them with scrambled eggs as I looked on somewhat gormlessly. Here, see?

Terrific! As a lover of asparagus you’ve got me wanting to try some pennywort now.
What’s that plaster all about?
