How to cook Samphire | Abel & Cole

We love this wild, sea salty marsh grass. Beautiful with fish, lamb and veg. And its salty taste goes especially well with sweet carrots, creamy broad beans, avocado or tomatoes. We made this interactive video so you can have a peek at our four recipes in any order you like. They are just a few ideas to help you make the most of this seasonal gem.

Abel & Cole i love Samfire & my 3yr old likes it too. i always fry or steam mine & not for too long either as it takes some flavour & vitamins/minerals out boiling. i use it whenever I make spaghetti/linguine/pasta. id never put salt with it & its great with lamb cis it is salty with the sweet works awesomely!!!! blacknpepper & regular butter makes it great on its own maybe a tiny bit of lemon too. =)

Why music???

[@simonmundy1351]

Great video - fast and clear - but without music and some chatting would be better!

lovely, simple samphire, thank you! Who needs wine and stuff on such a gorgeous wild veg anyway!!!!

I’ve eaten samphire from the Norfolk marshes for decades and don’t recognise the stuff they sell in the shops. Why is your samphire not stringy? We cook ours until you can pull the tender flesh from the ‘string’ and then add vinegar and black pepper. Incidentally, we pronounce it samfer in Norfolk.

Why do bourgeois brits put butter on everything they cook ? Personally, I wouldn't eat these dishes If I was starving.

Butter is a chef's magic ingredient, and you obviously have no clue!
