Hey Marlin,
Around here it's simply called "Creasy Greens". We didn't have it down on
the coast. It's very prolific, even the convenience stores sell bushels of
it. I think there was a thread on this last winter because I made the same
discovery. It'll be interesting to see how differently (better??) it'll
grow with all the moisture we've had this past year.
I experimented with different ways of cooking it. It cooks down
tremendously, as with all greens, (I guess that's why it's sold by the
bushel--takes alot to make a "mess"). The flavor is pleasant, though a bit
too much by itself depending on the individual plant. I finally settled on
mixing it with spinach, just barely wilting it all in garlic olive oil and
serving it with a splash of balsamic vinegar. Yum!
