Hi Wizard  :wave: No the black kind is what I meant by the strappy one, which I tried one year but it all died by the time the temp got down to about -6C, whereas the proper good old British types are hardy as far down as we get here - about -18C.   I don't grow the Russian type either which doesn't have much body to it, although it has pretty pink bits amongst the green  :)

It is delicious shredded and deep fried, tastes like crispy seaweed, really nice with fish pie.

The deep fried version sounds lovely, must try that! I just always shredded it very finely, then fried in some duck fat or olive oil, added some wine or water or stock + salt and pepper, cook gently until dark and soft. That's the way my gran did it and we always had it with sausages!  :&>
