What is this??? Reminds me a little bit on an asian herbs which my sushi-restaurant "Kuchi" uses and plant in our backyard.

Greetings from Berlin,

Some kind of Asian baby salad? Never seen something like this before.

Is it red cress? red rucola? beetroot-sprouts? Some kind of sprouts, by all means... How do they taste?

Lila Portulak, gibt es sowas? Das Bild sieht jedenfalls echt scharf aus. Und wie schmeckt es?

I meant to tell you that I saw wasabi covered peanuts in Munich the other day. It was in the large Asian shop on Augustenstrasse at the corner of Gabelsbergerstrasse (you probably know it already). They had cans of wasabi peanuts in their snack section right at the checkout (they have another, larger, snack section, too. That's why the emphasis is on the checkout). Hope that helps!

Shiso-Kresse? Wunderschöne Aufnahme.

I have seen colourful sprouted seeds like this in my local supermarket as a salad ingredient. Are these something like baby (well almost foetus) red chard?

Looks like purple oregano, but who knows?

You're going to tell us, right?

radish sprouts? mine used to have green leefs but where quite sharp, anyway!

So, it is quiztime here as well. Something out of the Cress Family? Or better from the Mustards down the Food Lane? I. e. the young ones, let’s call them purple mustard sprouts (that would explain the packaging)?
NO, NO, WAIT A MINUTE, it is from the Beetroot Track. Beetroot sprouts! For Mikado Salad. Not? Hm…

What a gorgeous color!

I have no idea what this is, however, the picture is STUNNING!!! I love it. :-)

How funny. I came across daikon cress two weeks ago at the sushi restaurant I work at. The chef used it as a garnish for a smoked salmon "nigiri" (to which he added Japanese mayonaise (the best around, in my book) and wrapped it up in a thin strip of sea weed. It was delish and we sold out in 15 minutes!

As the others said - stunning picture.

Since when did you do anything that isn't?

Dorothee, What a coincidence! Oliver just discovered Wasabi peanuts at the Asian store in Rosenheimer Street (the one across the street from the Hilton) and guess what they are already gone ;) Seems like the Asian stores in Munich broadened their variety!

So, Nicky & Oliver, get ready for Fürstenfeldbruck’s Amper Einkaufzentrum, where Wasabi Peanuts are a staple already (and Hershey’s Cookies’n’Creme as well).

Sebastian, I can already see us leaving with huge bags and even more chocolate...

That is so pretty! I am now going to need to go find some, that would certainly add some color to a salad. I too get sucked in by packaging...if its pretty and colorfull I must have it, even if I have n idea what it is!
