Post by: MrsKP on February 23, 2007, 07:22:43: not much struck on raw celery - smells like washing up liquid to me - but my take on food is, if it's cooked and put in front of me, i'll eat it !

i've a couple of mates though who are really strange. one won't do garlic at all, and the other avoids veggies at all cost.

neither grow their own. perhaps there's a lesson in that.

You can get a lot of chocolate into the grooves in a celery stalk ;D

Post by: quizzical1 on February 23, 2007, 10:37:56: Hate with a passion, any type of spinach, chard, kale, or anything else like it. Don't mind cabbage though.
Also dislike mixed salad leaves, especially the ones with red in. They seem so bitter. Much prefer a nice crisp cos.
Dislike overcooked broccoli, but will eat it if its hot but still nearly raw.

Young ones don't have them (you can eat the pod too!) &, with old ones, you just pop'em out of the skin, as they do in all the best places.

As to dislikes, I don't eat anything I don't like so I'm fireproof!!

Still making my mind up about courgettes.

cut into chunks, toss in olive oil, smear over tomato sauce (ketchup will do) and some chilli sauce (or your leftover gazpacho). Bake in a 200degC oven for around 25mins

- gives courgettes a whole new dimension!

i'd not tried broad beans since kinderhood until i grew them last year and thought they were fabby ! and i just love sprouts.

i must be getting old.

Post by: Kea on February 23, 2007, 18:52:47: I'd have to go along with the crowd and say celery (though i don't mind it in vege soup) and cucumber.
I used to hate Broad beans until my ex-mother-in-law cooked them for me and she used the young tender ones and didn't cook them till they were brown!

My mother used to put all her vege on at the same time so green=brown which was a real shame as she grew them all.

Oh I also hate with a passion silver beet which I think is called Chard here, but that really tastes disgusting green or brown!

Those people who hate squash and pumpkin are eating the wrong ones my husband told me he hated it then when we went to NZ I gave him the ones eaten there (now available here) buttercup/kaboucha and now he will fight for the last piece.

Post by: Jeannine on February 23, 2007, 20:07:18: I have to agree with Kea. There are hundreds of different squash and they all taste different. I collect the seeds and I have a very big collection and have grown dozens of varieties over the years,but each year I find a differnt flavour, there is such a tremendous difference in taste, texture and colour, so much so that sometimes it is hard to believe they are the same veggie.

Post by: grawrc on February 23, 2007, 21:23:50: There's nothing I don't like. It all depends on how they are prepared and presented. Broad beans are amongst my favourites. Baby broad beans with garlicky roast lamb is to die for. I also do a broad bean and baby plum tomato "stew" with fresh thyme that I would go to the end of the earth for. I do remove the skins from the beans though, which is a bit of a tedious task, but then the end product is unbelievably delicious. Not my recipe but Nick Nairn's.

Post by: Melbourne12 on February 25, 2007, 13:46:03: I don't think there are any veg that I strongly dislike. Given the choice, I probably won't take cooked or pickled beetroot (although it's nice grated into salads), and some of the coarser leaves like chard and kale don't hit the high notes.

Sadly, as I've got older, I can no longer eat jerusalem artichokes, which I love. As granny used to say, I like them but they don't like me. (I won't go into details, eh?)
Title: Re: Dare I ask this? Which Vegetables do you dislike?
Post by: Tora on February 25, 2007, 14:38:32: I really cannot think of any vegetable I dislike. I think any vegetable can be good if it's in a suitable dish and cooked properly. I thought I hated celery for a long time since I was a kid but realised I actually like it when I had fresh, properly peeled one a few years ago.

Having said that, there are things I wouldn't bother growing such as swedes, which I can happily live without. ::)

I love the flavour of rhubarb, but can't bear the way it makes my teeth feel furry. :-\

Get the same thing with coke.

I`ve been a veggie for over thirty years, a long time before it became
fashionable. I was raised on organic veg grown in the garden when that
wasn`t so unusual. I enjoy food and I can`t imagine not liking a vegetable.
I think the answer lies in the preparation and combination of foods. (Cooking skills) We are fortunate that we can start with good quality ingredients.
