But if you start to pay it a little attention you’ll quickly realize it’s more than just a mineral dense green stalk. It’s a delightful vegetable that has floral, sweet and salty notes to it. This baby is standing front and center – ready to debut just how delightful and tantalizing it can be. With the right spices, this green stalk makes a surprisingly divine soup that is bright and uplifting!
