Sweet Leaf Bush

$18.90 ($18.75-$18.90 choose a size)

Sweet Leaf Bush has been a popular leafy green perennial vegetable in Malaysia (especially Borneo) for many years.The crop grows rapidly in hot humid conditions but becomes relatively dormant in cooler environments. It will grow in acid soils and in heavy clay soils.The leaves and the top 15cm of stem tips of the Sauropus plant have a pleasant taste, similar to fresh garden peas, with a slightly nutty flavour. It is one of the most popular leaf vegetables in Southeast Asia and is notable for high yields and palatability.[6] The shoot tips have been sold as tropical asparagus. In Vietnam, the locals cook it with crab meat, minced pork or dried shrimp to make soup. In Malaysia, it is commonly stir-fried with egg or dried anchovies.WARNING: Do not use raw in green smoothies. People using the leaves in this way can ingest large amounts and have subsequently developed significant health issues affecting the lungs. Small amounts used raw in salads is generally fine to ingest. Used in cooking, it is very safe.
