Is there anyone who knows about what leaves of vegetables you can eat? I do need some advice, please.
I only know that you can eat the leaves of carots, turnip cabbage, beetroot and radish. Heard that you can eat the green around a couliflower as well.
How is it with others? Can you eat the leaves of peas and beans as well? I think the taste is often better when you put a little bit of the green in the hotpot.
Carrots will get a better taste when you put the green in it, too. Although I learned to throw this away.
I know that potatoes and tomato plant are not edible.
And a second question is, what can you use to get edible seedlings? I only know mung bean, alfalfa, radish-seeds and mustard seeds. And the mixture you can buy. Does someone have any experience if wheat, spelt or other corn can be sprout? Or lentils, beans and peas?

. Since I know some wild edible plants and their precious substances like minerals, vitamins and proteins, I thought of the possibility eating the leaves of vegetables, too. I know that my grandmom took the green of turnip cabbage when she cooked it.
