3,55 $
Root parsley, the lesser known cousin of the curly and flat parsleys, is mainly grown for its hefty white root. This root’s taste is very mild and sweet, and it can be cooked just like carrots, celeriac, or parsnips. The fragrant leaves can also be eaten just like common parsley, but should be harvested in moderate amounts to avoid weakening the root.

Cyperus esculentus
Tigernut, or earth almond, is a crop cultivated for its edible tubers. The small roots have an almond or coconut taste.
Also called yellow nutsedge, the plant is considered a pest in some regions. In Southern Ontario, farmers are desperately trying to get rid of the invasor, in vain. In Quebec, the winters are too cold, the plant dies and cannot reproduce.
Tigernut is used in the preparation of a sweet, milk-like beverage, known in Spain as horchata de chufa. In Africa, it is common at local markets. People eat it as a snack, just like peanut or coconut. It is also used to produce oil, juice, and flour.
It is one of the oldest plants grown in Ancient Egypt. Tigernut was probably an important food source at the time. For instance, during dynastic periods, it was used to make cakes.

This herb is commonly used in Acadian traditional cooking. It should therefore not be a surprised that, through time, they developed their own summer savory variety.
The first records of 'Ancienne d'Acadie' summer savory go back to Mr. Jean Prudent Robichaud in Burnt Churchill, Nouveau-Brunswick, at the end of the 19th Century. He received the seeds from a local indigenous woman. His family then grew the plant over several generations.
Given that this variety has had to adapt to the harsh and windy Eastern Canadian climate, it became stockier and hardier than common summer savory. The flavor is also more distinct.
