That meal looks delicious! Chard is one of my favorite greens to grow and eat, especially in a lemony pasta sauce with black olives and parmesan. It's just *chef's kiss*
I like chard, kale and collards! I chiffonade my collards and kale (without stems also)Then sauté that. I never boil greens. I really enjoyed your video. Good clear information. Thk you so much. I subscribed! 😁☮️. Ahna
I started growing chard last year at my daughter’s request. I love the idea of chard with chicken meatballs. A podcast on growing beetroot would be awesome. Thank you!
This is a great cooking tip for chard. I often use the stems and leaves 8n entirely different dishes, even. Or I slow cook or confit the stems and serve as a condiment along side the main dish. I love the leaves wilted and seasoned and stuffed into flatbread. Also great in frittata or quiche. Chard leaf and feta quiche with confit stems with balsamic reduction or Chinese black vinegar is hard to beat!
Impressive! 4 kids and home school. Caring for others and cooking at home. Kind of like seeing a unicorn! Pretty rare, great video. I'm learning slowly about swiss chard. I always thought it was poke salad. So I never messed with it much. But I have an interest to add this to my garden. Can I plant in winter? Thx
I have never eaten Swiss chard, but I love kale and have some plants growing around my garden that we have been eating from since November here in Central Florida, soon my kale will be eaten up by the bugs, thanks for showing how you cook your Swiss chard, I will try to get some seeds and grow some in the Fall, I do the same thing with my Kale I separate the stems from the leaves and chop it thin to add to my dishes it really taste so much better, have a great day Angela :)
I am just getting acquainted with Swiss Chard. Didn't grow up eating it so it's a bit of a mystery green to me. Thanks for the tip on separating the stalks from the leaves. I generally don't do that with collards and the like because they cook longer anyway. I found that the two times I cooked Chard, it was too wilted for me (I like more of a crunch in some veggies), Will try incorporating it into another dish (omelettes, stews...) and quick sauteing them as a side.
I grow most of my swiss chard in containers from seed each. they get right at 4hr of full sun and do great! Im in Ky which is 6a in my area. I use neem oil and it keeps most off them. This year has been wetter than normal so I have actually do a neem soil soak a couple times for fungus gnats a few weeks ago, which has seemed to work.✌❤🙏
I love chard because it resists my sttempts to kill it. It is great as a substitute for spinach in a creamy spinach soup. Also makes an enviable lunch quickly. Just make a chiffonade and chuck it in with a dry noodle soup packet and a couple of cherry tomatoes. Maybe some fish. Cover with boiling water and hey presto!
Thank you for the rundown on Swiss chard. I have a lot growing and I’m always looking for new ways to fix it. It would be great if you could include the recipe to that meatball bean stew, that looks delicious. Thanks
Ants are another pest, here in Portland, that I've had a problem with on my Swiss Chard. This spring they've been farming aphids on my overwintered chard.
Hey Angela! GReat info on the swiss chard! I do have a question, you have mentioned a couple of times that you had several unnecessary quince trees and that you got rid of them, what did you do with them?
God bless you for all the work that you do caring for your family ❤
Catching up on your cooking videos - love these!
More seed-to kitchen videos, please! Ready for a similar video with your hops and beverages.
Seconded!!! I would love to see more like this :)
excellent work

I love Swiss Chard! Thank you so much for the cooking ideas.
Yes! That’s how I cook mine, I love to eat them on the side of ever medium fried eggs, let the yolk run all into the chard... so good!

Wonderful Video! Love the grow to the plate, especially about separating the leaf.
This was a very well done video. Explanation of what chard is helped me understand how to grow it and cook it. Thank you!
Very cool! I will have to give this a try! Thanks for sharing!

Great video! Thank you!
I’ll have to try this! Last time I tried Swiss chard I thought it tasted like soap
Well done! Thank you.
Great video! This is my first year growing and also trying swiss chard.
I would love more of this style of video if you don't have them already!

Now I wish I hadn’t given my chard seeds away, I’d been cooking it wrong! 💚
I love it in beans n greeens and in omelet recipes
OOH I will have to try it with green beans!

I use the large leaves to make wraps, I can’t eat gluten. This year I want to try stuffing them like you would grape leaves or cabbage leaves

PS my mom always has problems with her cherry tomatoes getting eaten by animals - any possible tips?
Wow! You’ve got a lot on your plate! Oops! No pun intended.
I cook the stems w onions
