You know what’s also invasive?

The last people to own our house planted this stuff in the ground. It’s also called fish mint, because it smells like fish when you cut it.
That’s what that shit is? I though it was some generic weed I had a hard time getting rid of. Great. Another invasive to deal with. Just killed a tree of heaven the other day, too.
Your own private morsel of the sea.
But fish mint is delicious.
Wash the roots and snap them into little bits, toss them up with some diced onion and chili oil.
The leaves go great in salad.
I’ve tried it. Just not my thing. The taste is ok but I can’t handle the aroma.
I once bought fish mint at an asian grocery store thinking it was regular mint, and it was quite the surprise when I tried it.
That must have been quite the shock.
