Love this! You both were terrific! I live on the big island and many nights my dinner is beans rice and sweet potato greens!!! If I’m lucky I’ll have garlic ginger turmeric and hot peppers on hand to add! Aloha!
Saw plenty videos on this but you and your aunt 🎉 brilliant
Simple, clear
Thanks 🎉🎉🎉
We eat a lot of spinach quiche; however, spinach is hard to grow where we live in Florida. We have an abundance of sweet potatoes and greens so will be trying to sub the SP green for the spinach. :)
This is the best video for instructions on cooking sweet potato greens. I can't wait to try it.
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy those greens!
Aunt Marsh is a superstar! Love her charisma.
I just got to say whenever I'm in a mood, I watch one of Jane's videos and it puts me in a better place. Love your videos and keep smiling Jane. You're my gardening and life in general inspiration. Thank you!
That is basically how I cook my sweet potato greens, and I add a few drops of fish sauce, off the heat, just before I eat them. When I say a few drops, I mean 3 - 4 drops and mix it really well.
You ladies are wonderful! Give each other a hug for me and thank you both for sharing!
This made me want to come to the kitchen and cook with yall! Thanks for nutrition info on the greens that's a question I had.
THIS WORKS with sweet potato leaves or moringa leaves : Cook field peas in a pressure cooker remove from heat and let cool a little > turn them into gravy with a commercial stick blender > add RAW sweet potato or fresh (or frozen RAW moringa leaves) > use the stick blender to fine grind the leaves into the gravy > grate fresh ginger over the gravy stir the ginger in and eat >>>you will feel very strong and energetic !!!
Where can I find Moringa plants I've had no luck
I’m Montagnard Jarai indigenous we eat sweet potato for century fry with garlic or make soup with beef bone also eat with white rice
Awesome got to try this !!!👍
I often wonder why people worth eating the sweet potato greens. I’ll eat my beet greens and I eat my carrot tops. I just started growing sweet potatoes, and I had already decided to eat the greens because I am vegetarian.
Yum.. my mouth is flooded right now. ❤
Simple yet a very delicious meal.
Newbie to growing sweet potatoes, and to your channel. Thank you!
LOVE your backsplash!!! I’m having this for lunch. Not waiting til end of August. I have plenty!
I never knew. I have some out there ready to dig so I'll try some greens now
Did you try the greens Joseph? What did you think?
@@earthcarefarm1247 Yes, I tried them twice and loved them. Since then I dug the potatoes but will feast on them next year!
Great video, I planted sweet potatoes this year and voles ate them all..ugg but the greens were beautiful
At least you got some nice greens!!!
You can also feed to animals. They will eat all stem and leaves
You can also cook the sweet taters young leaves on sour soup with beef or chicken or fish!
New Friend here I'm so interested in trying sweet potato slips ☮️❤️💡
Delightful! Loving your cooking segments and your delightful aunt and folks. Fun! Jane, I do want to plant sweet potatoes next spring and can’t remember when to start making slips to plant. Do you start your own slips, and if so, when do you start growing them? Please do let me know when your sweet potatoes are available as I’d like to use one of yours as the parent plant. Thanks!
Thanks! We had a lot of fun with this one! I usually cut my own slips in late winter and also buy slips just in case. I have only been growing these for 3 years so I am a newbie. I probably won't list sweet potatoes for sale (we keep them for the family) but I am happy to give a couple for slips.
@@earthcarefarm1247 thanks, Jane. I’ll definitely be in touch. I grew them for first time 7 or so years ago, a Baker Creek purple, and had fun but would like to try yours for more robust yield. Appreciate it!
I Love me some sweet tater leaves, another channel on the Tube uses a Miso seasoning on hers after she fries em in coconut oil. Heck, I eat em off the vine, especially the young ones. I have taters in water now to get my slips started for my garden. I'm also gonna try my hand at Purple Sweet Taters to...
They are so tasty and not well known! Thanks for the tip, I will try them with miso and I bet a sprinkle of Tamari would be great too. The purple sweet potatoes are off the chart delicious and sweet.
@@earthcarefarm1247 I've got purple n the regular old orange sweet taters planted, now to just wait..
The purple and the Japanese sweet potatoes are delicious
U mention picking leaves without holes in them... it's there a reason for this?
How do you clean the leaves?
Perhaps they are more tender? Guess we have to try and find out :)
The holes are bug bites. Personally, I wouldn't want to eat something bugs have been chewing on! We soak fresh greens in a big pot of cold water for 5-10 minutes, drain well, soak again. Then drain and run them through the salad spinner (best cheesy kitchen tool ever - lol!).
@@gsdalpha1358I love my salad spinner! It's great for rinsing almost everything and spinning it dry. My dog gets nervous at the sound of it tho so I wait til he goes outside to spin it lol.
I need to find the greens first then i am at it
Also thank u both
Can l plant sweet potatoes after normal potatoes in the same soil?
Yes, they are different families of plants so that should work well. And the ground will be nice and soft after you dig your traditional potatoes.
@@earthcarefarm1247 Thank you so very much for your answer. l like your channel so much and learn every time sth new.
Can they been eaten raw,like being mixed in a smoothie?
That’s actually a great question and I don’t know the answer for sure. Google says they can be eaten raw but that the strong flavor makes them tastier when sautéed.
Sweet potato greens fall under the wild edible greens...such as dandilion leafs lambs quarters, plantain leaves...which are also medicinal....
I'm almost embarrassed ...that the two ladies filming... old not answer your question.....why on earth are they even eating sweet potato leafs....did they do a full research on sweet potato leafs....
All wild greens contain salicylic acids...this acid breaks down soon after exposed to heat....hence why wild edibles should not be eaten raw......IN HUGE QUANTITIES could effect the kidneys due to the salicylic acids and also high natural plant protein .....
Other than the safety tips on wild edibles.....they are safe eaten cooked or raw ...but raw only in small amounts...
For myself I collect all identified wild greens...I wash them thoroughly chop chop them into bite size , add all spices oil and lemon juice to help break the plant fibre for easy digestion....I refrigerate the greens and for our meal we each take a spoon full as part of our green chlorophyll intake.. it's amazing what great benefits we receive by eating wild greens...even edible mushrooms...
I wish to live this natural free food lifestyle forever........
Store brand greens have disappointed me over and over....no more spending money I don't have enough of..on Toxic store veggie and fruits...
I hope this has helped you to better understand how wild greens work with our human wellness...
I also have a phone app that helps me to identify tbe greens that grow wild on my property....
I pluck out noxious weeds poison oak and search for edibles.....they're everywhere...as long as I keep my property natural no chemicals or pesticides...

Substitute Bacon for Garlic and then put some Eggs in it. Yumms!
That does sound delicious!
We've been saving bacon drippings by draining them into a clean styrofoam egg carton. Drippings do need to cool a little beforehand. Stick the egg carton in the freezer until drippings are frozen. Then scoop out, lay flat in a freezer bag, and store in the freezer. The egg carton method gives you about a tablespoon each of frozen drippings to use for greens, green beans, or whatever you choose.
Leave the garlic in.
