That looks very good but I don't see that much egg in there.

I should have taken the picture last night before I cut into it, but I
forgot. We get two meals out of it so it's only three eggs each per
meal. We much prefer these types of omelets rather than plain old
fried eggs. The Swiss chard worked out very well, better than
spinach, only down side is cutting out the middle vein from each
leaf... and there's bushels more in the garden. Swiss chard is a huge
producer, we can't eat it all so we give more than half away. Swiss
chard is actually beet tops but chard doesn't produce the beet root.
You'll rarely find chard at markets as it's delicate so once harvested
has a short shelf life.

A lot better than all yoose off topic prevarications that I no longer
read. The only purpose of posting that pic was to introduce the Swiss
Chard to those who have never tried it.

Chard and eggs are excellent! We find it regularly at the farmers
market. It is very nice just sauteed on it's on as well. I like a plate
of it with a couple eggs over easy added on top and a crusty bread for
sopping.

you should eat the middle stem. Just cook it separately. Delicious.
Even some recipes for pickling them.

I've never eaten Swiss Chard but I would certainly try it given the chance.

if you like spinach or beet greens chances are you will like Swiss
Chard.
I often would prepare it by removing the ribs, cutting them in approx.
1 inch pieces and saute them in butter with garlic, a little onion and
whatever seasoning appealed, when the ribs are almost done add in the
torn pieces of the leaves and stir and cook until all is done. I
think adding the rib pieces makes the whole thing more interesting.
Particularly if you have rainbow chard. Then you have the various
colored pieces mixed in with the wilted leaves.

Sounds good but I wouldn't cook it for that long. I make omelets
regularly, loaded with as much leafy greens as it'll hold (plus other
things such as tomato, chilli, mushroom - it varies). But cooked
*just* long enough for the egg to set.

Is it uncommon in the U.S? I'm surprised if that's the case.

It's similar, although a little more astringent than spinach, etc.

Well, it was a poor choice since you cooked the living Christ out of
it.

No, it's not uncommon and I've heard my mother talk of eating it but it just
wasn't on our table. Don't ask me why.

I can say it is not common in the southern us. Most have heard of it
though. Most greens are turnip greens, mustard greens, spinach,
collards. and a few others. Sometimes country folks might pick a
mess of poke salad, or other greens but city stores never sell some
of these greens.

Even the famous Top market in new york doesn't sell everything.

But I'm sure they have the very finest spinach in the universe to
keep up Popeye's muscles, and nourish his giant penis.

The wimmens would shit a brick if their 80 year old popeye didn't
perform.

I've had it a few times in the Netherlands, but it is (or was) not
common.

I remember my grandmother. When I asked granny Bailey what we were
having for dinner, there could be two answers.

(1) Cold Kale and calf shit. One of her favorite smart ass retorts.
I don't remember ever seeing or eating Kale. I wouldn't know it if I
saw it. I just thought it was a smart ass remark by granny.

(2) Pie. The old woman loved ALL pies, and she saw no reason to not
use them as a complete meal. You could eat the whole damn pie if you
like, even a second pie. She did not believe the lack of meat or
protein or vegetables made the meal any less sustaining than a
complete Pie only meal.

I'll never forget granny. She died in the early 80's. I was a
pallbearer to help tote her casket to the hole next to the church.

Probably doesn't suit most people's taste buds these days?

I'm guessing it once was common nearly everywhere in temperate
climates, but now people dislike the taste/texture and are wealthy
enough to not have to grow it for food.

That looks like a good way to try it out.

Oh Hush. Yoose know that Popeye is an erudite polymath up in noo yawk.

border town on the mexican border.

Hell, didn't he bring back a 100% genuine, no shit Mayan prostitute?

Can yoose possibly doubt that he had sex with every woman in
brooklyn while a paperboy?

No, Yoose can't! Popeye ****ed all them wimmens!

Yes, that looks good. You can basically cook it the same as English
spinach, albeit it's a little more fibrous.

It tastes fine. A bit like spinach, as Jebus said. Tasmanians
(Australians?) actually often call it spinach. When they mean real
spinach, they say "English spinach".

That could be it. If my dad didn't like it and if we'd turned up our noses

I've not tried it either. I don't like cooked greens. I can enjoy a
good salad, but once cooked it all tastes like soggy grass to me.

Actually, it's called Silverbeet or Chard in Tasmania. In Sydney I see
it for sale as 'spinach'. Never understood why.

I can get to be astringent due to the oxalates, especially if the
leaves are not young.

I'll give it a shot. There are few greens I don't like. Kale is one
but this is milder so may work nicely.

Yes, supermarkets call it silverbeet, but most people called it
spinach.

One thing about Kale is the different varieties are really quite
different in taste and texture. I love all Kale except the Russian
variety. My favourite is definitely Cavolo Nero, AKA Lacinato, AKA...
'dinosaur kale' <cringe> in the U.S.

Not in my part of Tasmania, always called silverbeet or chard. But
yeah, Tasmania almost needs it's own translation book, they have so
many different names for things compared to the mainland.

Last year my Kroger was selling a 'Super Food Salad' in their deli area. It
consisted mainly of small torn (cut?) pieces of kale, sesame seeds, grape
tomatoes, smidge of red onion, smidge of shredded cheese, blue berries,
peanuts, and maybe a bit of celery. It had just a mere touch of an olive
oil and vinegar dressing; it was really, really good and not sure why they
decided to stop making it.
