                                In many cuisines, it is a common practice to discard the roots of spinach, yet historical and culinary sources reveal that this part of the vegetable is not only edible but also considered a delicacy. This practice of discarding the root crowns is a missed opportunity for both culinary exploration and nutritional gain. Incorporating spinach roots into your cooking can add a unique, mildly sweet flavor and contribute to a more sustainable kitchen practice.
