I grew red cabbage and cooked some it turned out bright purply blue it put me off. So the rest of it went into jars to pickle and for coleslaw. I must read up what to do to remedy this when being cooked.

Tell yourself that every spoonful is full of anti-oxidants!

I made some celeriac soup yesterday, and in the fridge I have a number of red mooli that needs eating up. It is quite a bland vegetable so I thought I would add it to the soup and perhaps it would come out a pleasant shade of pink/pale beetroot. Instead it is bright purple and we had some yesterday, but honestly the purple put my off - stupid really. I have enough for today, but I might just freeze it and use it when I’m desperate.
