In reply to GraceGarce. I find this with a lot of things are classed as toxic in one country and commonly eaten in another with special preperation. Would you be happening to explain the preperation process that would be used for this one?

This is a plant that Kurds have eaten the leaves for thousands of year, and no one has ever died from it. however, there is a special way of cooking it that gets rid of the toxins in the leaves. I grew up eating this and I love the taste of it so much!! you can cook it as a soup or with rice. It is Called ” Kardi or ” Kardu” in Kurdish. Also, people in Iran mainly the Kurds that are in Iran forge it too.
