Purslane- Scientific: Portulaca oleracea. Is found everywhere basically and is edible. Highest in Omega-3 Fatty Acids (more than all other vegetables and some fish). This plant DOES come with a warning and awareness at the end. Enjoy and remember if you can't control it, eat it.
"Also present in purslane are two types of Betalin alkloid pigments,
the reddish beta-cyanins and yellow beta-xanthin. Both of these
pigment types are potent anti-oxidants and have ben found to have
anti-mutagenic properies in laboratory studies."
[Pro. West Pharmacol. Soc 45: 101-103 (2002)]
I have been eating "verdolaga" since I can remember, my Mom and Grandmother used this alot for cooking, So delicious!
Happy to hear others see the value in it
This is a very well known vegetable in my country , Lebanon. We have a very green and fresh kind , we call it Bakli. We add it to our famous Fattoush salad , we make small pies with it called fatayer . Thanks for the valued information of this neglected plant..I have it in my garden most of the year.
I remember this plant when I was young, we used to collect them and chopped them and then boiled to feed our pigs mixed with leftover food scraps. All the neighbourhood were doing it as we have plenty. Now it's very scarce and will be lucky to find one. No wonder our pigs taste good and we did not know it was healthy too. That was in the Philippines, I just recently went there for holiday and I did not see any at all. I now live in Australia and I got them growing like crazy around my front & backyard. Lucky I don't use pesticide so I can eat them safely. Thanks for the video.
When I found out how nutritious this is, I started shaking the little black seeds all over my yard and planters every year, and now I can feed a small country! 🤣😂🤣
Nancy Blair I did the same lol
The Creator God actually gave us plants because HE LOVES US. Let's remember to THANK HIM. Thanks so much for this info, including the clarification at the end.
Complex creation is proof of God the Creator.
Evolutionism is a religion of believing nothing exploded into the universe and non-biochemistry created biochemistry. It is taught in schools as 'fact' by anti-God people and pseudo believers to justify their lifestyles.
Temporary life is to prepare us for eternal life with or without God.
There are unlimited God-honoring good things to think about and to do.
Why do the eternally pathetic stuff?
My family has eaten it for many years. My great grandmother her grandmother gathered and ate it. My parents and I gather it. Now I'm teaching my kids how to find it and cook it.
I have a lot in my yard but not sure cause it might be poisonous like mushrooms!!!
You are the best in this field that I have seen on TH-cam. You explain everything and all aspect of the plant. I will follow you for sure. Thank you so much for the good quality of your presentations.
Veronica Alessandrello green Dean from eat the weeds has some excellent videos and ages of experience however he don't have any new videos
I just happened across this video and it is very informative. I do landscaping and now I know just one more plant I can eat at lunch and how to identify it
I am mainly self taught and doing all the research while weeding out the bad information. Will be working with more people in the future, but right now dealing with Hurricane Sandy and finally getting some rest and found a friend with power and working wifi. Thank you and will be putting out more videos in the future
This vegetable was a common staple back in the Colonial America... Everyone used it in all their cooking much like how we use tomatoes with a lot of dishes... I think the government kinda removed this from the public eye because it was healthy and free... Like I said.. everyone used to eat tons of this stuff here in America.. it wasnt till the past 100 or so years that people stopped knowing about it like they used to... This is what happens when markets open up selling you stuff that isnt found in everyones yard... Just liek Marijuana.. which grew all over teh country.. the government went out of their way spraying the country with weed killer to remove this plant from existence because the gov wanted to sell people Nylon instead of hemp(again which everyone grew) . Im glad people re-discovered this plant.
It wasn't so much the government as it was greedy multinationals and their legion of lobbyist who bought off and or persuaded politicians into voting a certain way. Take away this lobbying tool by corporations and so will go this extreme form of abuse.. Aside from behind closed doors "which would be illegal" and investigatable corruption.
I agree!
Pot rot was never meant to be consumed. Your spelling is proof.
IMPORTANT WARNING: The poisonous weed spurge actually will grow up as well, so don't harvest purslane by grabbing handfuls or you can get some spurge along with it.
On my property this is quite pronounced. Spurge grows both along the ground and upwards, especially among the purslane we have.
yes, there is a warning within the video...
Thanks for sharing the health benefits along with the heart you have for purslane! Thanks for sharing your wealth with us!
In Greece we have five different names for this plant, our ancestors used it extensively in salads and even eating alone as a salad with a bit of vinegar. You can eat it without fear raw.I'm eating it every day in my salad.
Very good . You gave the #1 look a like that poison . I have watched a couple other videos that didn't and I truly thank you for the warning.
I grow up eating this plant in Mexico. Specially in salsa roja/or verde: in red or green salsa with pork. It should be leafy bright green and the stems should be greenish purples, eat it before it blooms, it grows straight up in moist soil, it spreads low if there’s not enough water. In my home town we called it Verdolaga.
Thanks friend it's good to know cuz some extras are grabbed with the foraging and I comb through mine! I am still"green"?!? Love learning about foraging edible medicinals! Love and light
there's a thick vegetation on the entry way of my garage.... and i just love the smell when the tires crushes it.... little did i know this is packed with vitamins...... thnks for sharing..... im from Philippines!
Thank you for the added information at the end of the video, I was looking to find out what was growing in my back yard, happy I can check to see if its toxic or edible.
That was an excellent explanation at the end...the best one I've seen yet! A TH-cam friend sent me seeds for it a little while ago and I just seed started them (from Baker Creek seeds). excited to try it!
The Peeping Egg baker creek is great! one of the best ppces online to get seeds abs staff is super nice. Good luck with every season.. remember the plant is invasive so pick a spot ... eat and share it ; )
Found out this plant is like the best veggie for anemic people. Ground Fish
I can almost guarantee you have come across this plant that most people spend money on chemicals to kill it. Purslane is probably one of the most delicious plants that will add a nice crunch to your salad and some added nutrients. Specifically, this is one of the best sources of Omega-3 Fatty Acids...even more than some fish!
Check out the video for more information on how to boost your summer salad. Clean up you diet, while cleaning up your yard.
i know this weed because we have this a lot in our farm and it give us a great food... but i never imagined that it is so nutritious...
Nomadic Medhunter awesome where can i find this.
Nomadic Medhunter
Hey,we actually have a huge amount of this here in our yard,we know it in Belize as chicken weed,but had no idea that we could actually eat it..I got to try this..thanks for the info..
Later
{ Ace-Kid97 } look outside in the warm months... found in many places.
Make sure it's the non toxic type. Do your research.
It also survives Chicago winters.
Great video on identifying the true purslane to its imposter. I can now spot the difference. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! Appreciate the comment!
I was looking for a way to diversify from a walrus, you explained very accurately and simply, show the differences in the juice, thank you very much
Thank you for teching about the squeez and pinch because as a kid i always wonder about that ans if that means toxic! Thank u so much
Thanks for the clarification.
Purslane is really tasty and I have a specific spot in my garden that I have let it grow...it grows fast.
Making It Easy with Liz are you in the US? I need some seeds because mine has been annihilated by the h o a where I have to live right now. Glad to have a roof over my head but upset about the way they treat nature. and the way they treat me. I would be happy to pay a small amount of money for seeds or even if you could send a plant and get it to live I believe seats would be safer let's check and see how close we are I'm in the northwest. That's how sad we've treated my state there are no good weeds left. we picked Dandy lions that had Roots the size of the handle of the tool that I was digging with and I was so excited to cut them up and dry them and make them into different things and we had the leaves and we had the buds in the springtime sauteed with garlic we've made so many yummy things with them pick them this year. had to put them in the fridge and two days later they died down they had been sprayed with a great big compressor truck that looks like an oil truck they were sprayed with a hose like a fire hose! the score just field of dandelions with gigantic roots! what a shocking and disappointing thing but luckily I didn't have time to use them right away and got to see that they were sprayed or we would have been so sick or dead! they've done that to the Natural blackberries here also not the Siberian but the tiny ones that grow on the ground the natural ones to the northwest.
hi i love this green I put it with the fattoch Arabic salad it is so good I try to grow it but never works they died I pick them from the parks or the street can you help me to have it too thank you
It grew all over my garden man.I think it's time to start foraging and eat the weeds ! It thrive in Northern California.I dont have to plant it or propagate it,it's just all over !! ;)))))
***** its an amazing find! Try it out and see what you think. Enjoy
+Nomadic Medhunter It is PUR , nor POR , Porcelain is something totally different ; But good info shared . Cheers !
It grows even in my AZ back yard. I mix it with some plain yogurt and sea salt for a delicious salad!
best weed to have in your backyard and its expensive in the latin markets
Thanks. Very good to know how to distinguish the poison one from the edible , so thanks for that explanation.
Blessed are The Mother and The Father who are in Heaven, who are our Haven, who provided this beautiful Garden of Eden for us to live in. If some of us don't think THIS IS THE GARDEN, then try and live on any other planet in the Solar system. Synchronicity! I was just working on my vegetable garden and noticed this particular "weed". Instead of pulling and killing it I just transplanted it to a container because it "spoke to me". I came in to peruse TH-cam and Lo and behold! There was YOUR video! I put it in with my "green drink" and it was awesome. I also ate a few sprigs -delish! I am your fan. May the Green Godless bless you! People this video is true.
I found this very helpful thankyou !
Omg. I think I've tasted the toxic variety before, lol. The two varieties do look similar. I did not know about the "pinch and squeeze" technique. Awesome video!
Red thank you. Please be careful of look alikes.
In Thailand have many too but never know that's can eat..
What is 10p grams? A teaspoon or a cup?
In Haiti we also eat it and it taste very good. Remember if we educate ourselves more on the plants like our grandparents did; we'll live a healthier lives. Even the great created said " my people are dying because of lack of knowledge."
Have you taken any courses to gain this knowledge? Or is it all self-education and one to one teaching?
Great vid btw man very helpful :)
Thanks Leija! Yea its amazing, free and basically EVERYWHERE!
This grows in the cracks of sidewalks in the city... grows very strong and healthy in between cracks in the cement but since I moved to a rural area.. I'm not finding it as much here 🤔
Ooooh I love that stuff!!! I put it in my salads whenever I find it!!! :D Excellent, informative video my friend! Omega 3s are so damn important and most people don't get enough! I look forward to watching more of your videos when I get the chance! *hugs*
I believe this is exceptionally good for diabetics. I'm surprised he didn't mention this.
Gotta tell ya my spurge grows up in a bush fashion, yes I have some that grows along the ground but most of the spurge growing out of containers grows up with long stems. I’m in AZ.
sojourner1122 yes
It seems in more dry and less humid conditions it seems to stretch upwards.
I just want to know what makes you call it porcelain it's purslane purr/slaine
In norther NM known as verdolagas.
"Spatula-shaped, or breast-like" lol
in the u s a people had alots of foods . thats why we did not looking for edible stuffs . if we live in different country who have. to eat for living. so the are much more we can find fo edible .
This is somewhat true. The wild food is probably more nutritious than what is being sold though.
I'm seeing it everywhere in Trinidad ... but who is doing the scientific research to determine all these nutritional values... I really want to try 😒 feel like I would enjoy it
definitely do your own due diligence to find out more about these plants and all. If it is what you have around let us know if you find out anymore.
I found out about this weed when I lived in Mexico. They called it quelité. It is delicious!
What has a little white flower with purple center
I live in Ohio and I get this weed that my mother in law calls red weed .Does anyone know what it Is and how to rid of it .
Love this
Love the plant? The video? Anything we can add to make it better? Thank you for commenting.
@@NomadicMedhunter grow yourself 🌼✌️❤️mine gets huge lol
@@shannon2228 yea I tend it find it in most garden plots or on sidewalks
Mine has red flowers ❤️
I found some with red flowers while I was down in Florida and collected some seeds at the time. I believe they are basically the same, but I cannot say for sure here.
Thank´s for reminding of purslane.... :-))))
Purslane is also very high in oxalates which are toxic.
Excellent info. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
natural is good ! sprayed crops are useless ?even S/markets spray to try make them look fresh ?
I was watching your video as i was picking and munching on Purslane. Then i got to the end where you explained Splurge. The low lying plant i was eating had a milky substance, and it appears i ate over a pound of the Splurge by accident. I too believe it is toxic as my body is starting to tighten up and convulse, and my breathing is becoming difficult. But do not fear as i think i will be alright till the ambulance arri
Well, as this is all put out for entertainment and information.. I hope that all is good on your end and hope that more will watch the videos until the end and continue to not take my word for anything while doing their own due diligence to make better decisions before putting anything in or on their bodies.
@@NomadicMedhunter all good and I am home now. i think the toxins ingested made me resistant to the Covid
Haha first of all happy to hear you're back home doing well. And secondly, who knows I guess anything can be possible
@@NomadicMedhunter , do you know of a natural way to neutralize the toxins, if accidentally eating the Spurge?~I have what seems to be both, and ive watched many videos on this, but im still hesitant to be sure, since its not that clear~If i knew of a natural antidote first, id feel better about trying it~
my ducks love it prefer it over grains
Are the more colorful purslane found in the nurseries also edible?
Vida Sherman I wrote above about the person that has been made into a domestic plant. Though it may not be poison it doesn't contain any of these goodies! They even sell seeds for plain-looking purslane but it's Giant and it's been bred to produce but it doesn't have any of the goodies that the wild weed does. and although it's beautiful you certainly don't want it breeding with any of your wild stuff and ruining it. luckily normally the domesticated plants will go back to the wild before wild go to domestic obviously but had to say it anyway I hope that helps!
Good morning idol shout out keep safe
That was informative.. thanks
Thanks good work
Thank you for your informative video.
We call it verdolaga in mexico
We eat it like cactus in everything
That purslane in the bucket is a very sad example, and I wouldn't eat it. Get the stuff that lays flat on the ground and is a rich green color, and before it goes to seed. Though I suppose the seeds have some untested benefits as well.
Richard Raucina
excellent information! Where can I buy it? I'm in the DFW area. Thanks.
LVNCSR it is a wild weed if you buy it it's been domesticated and there's no nutrition in it or any of the other properties! it literally will just be growing on the ground somewhere and you're lucky if you can find it with all the building in the cities and the rural places where I lived it was everywhere now I finally found some last year and we had drought for the first time in Seattle all summer long and we had a tiny actually large natural spring in the woods near me Woods meaning about two acres so all of the rabbits squirrels birds were dying of thirst. Unfortunately I'm stuck in a condominium and you can't put out water for the birds!? This place is horrid but I'm lucky I have a roof over my head back to the purslane. I found some baby plants in the soil over at the church where they brought it in to make Gardens for the kids it's some property adjacent to where I live so I carefully dug them up and put them in a planter and they were growing really well and the only two baby squirrels that made it in this area found in my garden they ate every tomato on my lettuce and then they found the purslane and they ate it straight out of the ground so I didn't even get it to seed once. so I didn't get any to come up this year. They sell it and seeds at the plant nurseries but it's been domesticated and it is void of all of these nutrients that are talked about. one thing that was left out to is it feeds your microbiome which is your gut where all the good bacteria live. I would take a drive out to the country and look for it I thought I found some at the park but it's the poison kind I put my glasses on and I was so disappointed it's so easy to recognize with the thick Leaf it's almost like the plant that people keep in the house called a jade plant has a very thick Leaf filled with moisture almost a slime. once you get past that you're fine it's very tart almost slightly lime without the bitter taste. everybody tasted a little different but as long as it has this thick leaves you're okay. I need to go looking for it and start growing it in the house during the winter. I also used to just lay it out on screens outside and let it dry and then I would grind it into a powder and add it to things like soup just as the soup was done and cooled a bit I don't like to overcook things those enzymes once you get past 118 degrees Fahrenheit it kills so much of the vitamins and enzymes that help us use anything that's in our food. I haven't been able to read the warning on here because it's so tiny and I'm on my phone I'm assuming he's talking about oxalates but I haven't gotten there yet that's something that can build up in your kidneys and cause kidney stones and it does have a lot of oxalates. But so does iceberg lettuce and it has no nutrition. all greens have oxalates. Happy Hunting
You can buy those wild plants from the Mexican groceries store !
Chinese people used purslane as vegetable and good for healthy
Back where I grew up, I never knew that this is edible by human instead we used this weed as a feed for hogs and our hogs are fat. As invasive as they are, the pigs are happy.
Buenas verdolagas 😉😉😃😃😃 have a nice day buen dia para todos
Does it grow in Hawaii?
+Deb Justme It basically will grow basically everywhere and will probably see it on the islands I cannot say for certain since I have made it down there yet, but keep a look out for it.. it may have red flowers instead of yellow. If you do find some, let us know.
does not have ESSENTIAL (DHA or EPA) omega 3 fatty acid - it has ALA not DHA or EPA fatty acids & does not convert
South East Asia we have those plenty
Beverly Bangasan seems to be all over the planet. What color flowers do they have over there by you?
Now I know the difference,thank you.There are a bunch of them growing outside,I'm going to check hopefully I have the edible one🤓👽👽👽👽.
Your welcome. Yea this one took over where I was experimenting with a different way to grow a pineapple (didn't work obviously ha). Purslane found its way in there and took off. With the neighbors and dogs barking it was easier to take that one to a quieter place and shoot the video. Thanks again!
Spanish called 'verdulaga' delicious.
Verdolaga
They say thst curse most if not all illnesses
I saw those wild plants in Hong Kong, I never try them, my grandma call them “瓜子菜“…
Definitely worth a try. Sorry I don't know how to phonetically say what your grandma called it
“瓜子”=pumpkin seed shaped ...
And “菜“=veggie
Great video but a bit confused with all the religious mumbo jumbo comments fro people very irritating
Nice video and good explanation, but you really should learn how to pronounce it the right way. It is PUR SLANE....NOT POR SLANE
Happy hunting!
my mom does egg and that plant mixed mmm
verdulagas in spanish very very good
Texas
May be PUNRAVA in AYURVEDA
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

wind noise, use a dead cat. ask a recording studio for one. not joking.
Tawtaw. Tea
TawTaw...is that what you call purslane ?
My wild purslane is far, far more vibrant and healthy looking than that one. Don't think I'd care to eat any of that one..
Purslane whitens your teeth.
Does it? I guess I will have to eat more these summers after drinking so much black coffee
