Meadow goatbeard. Interesting plant facts In Ukraine, 19 species of goatbeard grow wild, of which the large goatbeard and Ukrainian goatbeard are most often used for food. The plant got its name because in an unopened immature basket, the hairs of the seeds are collected in a bundle resembling a goatee. At the break of the leaves or stems, a white milky juice is released. Goatbeards are common in dry meadows, ravines, forest edges, sandy steppe areas, and slopes. Young leaves, stems and roots are edible. Salads are prepared from the leaves. But before use, they are soaked for some time in salt water to reduce the bitterness from the milky juice. Bitterness also disappears after a short boil in salt water. The roots contain a lot of starch, inulin, proteins and are considered easy vegetables for the stomach. Roots are harvested, as a rule, in autumn and early spring from annual plants with a rosette of leaves, but not stems. Before use, the roots are peeled by rubbing with a coarse cloth and cooked like cauliflower or asparagus. Boiled roots are added to vinaigrettes, as an admixture to vegetable soups and side dishes. Especially tasty are the roots, cut into small pieces and fried with breadcrumbs in butter. Author: Reva M.L.
