Sauteed Blood Sorrel... Bloody tasty

MMMMmmm bloody good!

This is a long overdue posting!.................Carry on... keep reading!

In one of my many trips to the Farmer's market this summer, I found this beautiful plant, which not only makes your garden looks beautiful but once you serve it, either in salads or saute the plant leaves, the taste of it.. its lovely...Just plain lovely!

I was going to make shrimp sandwiches that night and decided to add a healthy accent to this sandwich... VOILA!! Blood Sorrel did it's magic. It was a perfect addition to my dinner.

It was dramatic to watch these leaves while sauteing. How can I compare it with? all I know is that it turned red and the color was like sauteing beats because the beautiful red color, yet, the taste of "Blood Sorrel" leaves was a rich citrus flavor, a perfect addition to a seafood sandwich or any type of seafood serving for that matter. It was delicious!

Without further comments I am posting some pictures taken of my final results.

Enjoy!
Eat well and be happy!
