This vegetable saved my life - when i was 2 or 3 years old, i was having a metal whisle in my mouth while i was having my bath, the whisle was tiny, like the pepermint candy which has a hole in the middle. As soon as my mom lay me down on to the towel, oops - i swallowed the whisle. I had to go to the doctor right away and was told that the only thing to do was to wait - yes, wait for it to come out the other end. The most important thing was not to allow the whisle to get rusty and to do so, i have to drown in alot of cod liver oil and eat as much of this garlic chives as possible. The whisle did come out, vegetable and all.

garlic chives are bulbs, it has to be dug up and replant by splitting the bulbs. my friend, akau, who came to visit, replanted some and now i have my vegetable patch full of chives.
Here in Colorado, it is so dry that my grand children nosebleed alot and Akau told me to cook the roots for them to them. I have yet to try it.
This egg recipe is really looking yummy and healthy.I think I will need to try this recipe soon:)
