Some recipes are so simple that the recipe is too short. And so, in addition to the three main ingredients, I’ll add a little bit about the hood I used to garnish the soup. But the decoration had its own meaning here. Healing. The greater hood, Tropaeolum majus in Latin, is a beautiful plant. This year I managed to grow it in a south-facing pot, slightly shaded by a canopy during the day. I am writing this because the same planted and tended hood in seed on the balcony has stopped its growth at 10 cm. It has been exposed to the sun for most of the day and has been in the same pot as the tomato. The leaves have a mildly tangy flavour, and the florets are edible. I use them in smoothies or salads, the young leaves also look great as a garnish on food and the flowers can be used to decorate a cake as well as a salad, they are just very fragile and wilt quickly. About the botanical part, I found a nice source of information and it says this about the capuchin: Use: Capuchin is characterized by its antibiotic properties and its ability to dilute secretions from the bronchial tubes. The main importance of the herb is in its antibiotic action on streptococcus, staphylococcus, bacteria invading the urinary tract, kidneys (proteus vulgaris), fecal infections (eischeria coli), salmonella and others, and in the respiratory, urinary and gynecological tracts. As it is mildly irritating to the skin when used externally, it is attributed with tonic properties (it acts on hair and inhibits dandruff formation). In addition, it has antiseptic effects on the skin. The fruit acts as a laxative (laxative). Internally, the plant has proved useful in the treatment of respiratory diseases and, thanks to its relatively high vitamin C content, in the treatment of scurvy. Externally, it is recommended for relieving symptoms of sunburn, superficial sunburn and reddened skin. The whole aerial part is commonly used as a hair tonic, but also for itchy skin under the hair and excessive dandruff formation. Dried cape hyssop berries are applied as a laxative. Caution.

Boil all ingredients in water. I have found a super gadget for cooking spices and that is a strainer with a silicone handle. This is filled with small spices and herbs, snapped shut against the edge of the pot so that the strainer is submerged in the water. Then, to blend, you remove the strainer and you have clean Vegetable Recipes for the blender.

When the Vegetable Recipes are soft, pour off the water and blend the Vegetable Recipes into a smooth cream with the butter. Use the broth to thin it out. Sprinkle the finished cream with the seeds. And then the cappuccino if you have it. I wish you a good taste.

TIP: I used to crunch the cape leaves raw when I was very tired. They helped.
