I hate to waste the nice stalks of broccoli. My family doesn't like to eat the stalks steamed, is there another way I can incorporate this into another dish? In a soup perhaps?

Marinate the velveted chicken in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
2. While the chicken is marinating, prepare the sauce and vegetables: for the sauce, mix together the oyster sauce, light soy, dark soy, and water in a small bowl and set aside. In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water thickener and set aside. Wash and drain the broccoli. Cut the stalk diagonally into thin slices. Cut the flowerets into 3 or 4 pieces. Crush the garlic.
3. Preheat a wok. Heat 2 cups oil in the wok until it reaches 275 degrees Fahrenheit. (Test the heat by placing a piece of chicken in the wok - it should float). Add the chicken cubes, and let cook until they just turn white (about 30 seconds), using a wooden spoon or chopsticks to gently separate them. Quickly remove the chicken cubes from the wok as soon as they turn white, and drain in a colander or on paper towels.
4. Drain the oil out of the wok or preheat a second wok on medium high to high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil. When the oil is hot, add the crushed garlic and stir fry for 10 seconds.
5. Add the broccoli, sprinkle the salt and sugar over, and stir fry briefly, turning down the heat if necessary to make sure it doesn't burn. Add the 1/2 cup water, and cook the broccoli, covered, for 4 - 5 minutes, until it turns a bright green and is tender but still crisp. Remove from the wok and drain.
6. Clean out the wok and heat 2 more tablespoons oil. Add the broccoli and the velveted chicken, stirring and tossing to cook the chicken through. Add the sauce and cornstarch mixture in the middle of the wok and stir quickly to thicken. Mix everything together and serve hot over steamed rice.

Reply:in a soup it's delicious, provided that you cut it thinly and/or peel it. Or otherwise you can mash the stalks in this way: boil them in salty water and 1 clove of garlic until tender. Remove stalks and garlic, blend them with 1 anchovy in oil (anchovies in oil come in small jars), add some of their water if necessary to adjust consistency, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt. It's delicious with grilled swordfish or halibut or monkfish. The other option would be to deepfry the stalks.
Reply:Soup works. You can also peel the stalks with a vegetable peeler to get rid of the tough stem. You can cut the stalks into matchstick size pieces and use these as garnish or in salads.
Reply:Broccoli %26amp; Cheese Soup
Just trim the outside of the stalk with a vegetable peeler then slice and steam.
And don't boil he soup in this recipe---boiling makes it stringy.
Reply:You could use the stalks with other veggies as an appetizer with a dip, or mix them into egg dishes, scrambled, quiche, fritatta.
BROCCOLI SLAW

1/2 cup shredded carrots

3 T. seasoned rice wine vinegar
1 T. sugar
1 T. orange juice
5 T. olive oil
Salt and Pepper

2. Add 1/2 cup shredded carrots.
3. Add 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage.
4. Add chopped cashews.
5. Add raisins if desired.
6. Make dressing: Whisk rice vinegar, sugar, and oj. Add olive oil slowly while whisking.
7. Pour over vegetable slaw. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to use. Makes 8 servings
Reply:Ummmm. Cut them to bite size pieces and saute with butter and top with seasoned bread crumbs (aka polonaise), or saute with bacon and onion.
Soup is good, many ways and recipes.
Blanche till tender and then cool, toss with a favorite dressing and sliced mushrooms for a cool salad instead of Cole slaw.
Leave whole, wrap in bacon and bake till tender.
Tip: wash and let air dry, then freeze. It will soften the outside for quicker cooking.
Mince or puree and incorporate into stuffing, even Stove-Top, or with rice and cheese.

Chipmunk ate the stalk of my lily plant. Can I save it?
A chipmunk dug a whole around my lily plant and ate the stalk and it broke off under the ground almost at the root. I have the plant stalk in my house in a vase full of water in hopes that it will still bloom. It is 3 1/2 feet tall with so many buds, I have to see it bloom! Is there something I can do to help save it. Will it come back next year now that this happened?

It might bloom in your house. As long as there is enough root for the lily it will come back next year.
Reply:Yes.
Reply:Other than some stomach pain from overeating, the chipmunk will be fine. Don't worry.

How would I go about identifying a strange plant in my garden: straight stalk, large velvety leaves?
Last year, it came up "voluntarily" in my garden. It has a very straight, very sturdy stalk about 3 feet high, with large, velvety leafs. I didn't see any flowers, and there was no fruit. The stalk withstood the winter, and now the leaves are growing like mad. I tried to pull it, but it is a very strong plant, with good root structure - apparently not a weed. Anyone have any ideas?
How would I go about identifying a strange plant in my garden: straight stalk, large velvety leaves?
A tree, perhaps.
Reply:If you are in a hot area---it is a weed---get a shovel and give it a whack under the ground to kill it---unless you think it is cute---if you do, forget it. you did not say where you live or give a color of the leaves---all flowers were once weeds so go figure.
Reply:Try this book Jude's Herbal Home Remedies by Jude C. Williams, M.H. We are betting that this plant is mullein, used for chest congestion and infections in a tea but do not use it unless you know what you are doing. They are very common plants along the roadsides here in WI. First year plants never develop the stalk only velvety leaves. It should flower on the stalk with little yellow flowers.
It is a bi-annual and a moderately prolific plant that reseeds itself.

Do people eat only the leaves of spinach or also the stalk?
Someone told me that only the leave sof spinach ahve to be eaten and the stalk discarded. Is it true?And why?
Do people eat only the leaves of spinach or also the stalk?
If you are making salads, the uncooked stalk is usually discarded as it is chewy raw. But in stir frying or braising the stalk can be eaten.
My mother has been feeding me cooked spinach since I can remember and we eat the stalks along with the leaves.
The other reason that most people don't deal with the stalk is that it hides sand and dirt at the base and requires extra work to wash and clean properly.
Reply:once its all cooked down I can't see how you would separate it out! If its all tender then eat the lot
Reply:i only eat the leaves!
Reply:I think that for salads, traditionally only the leaf is used, but if it is cooked (especially if it is the chopped up kind find in the freezer section) the stem may be there. I think the reason behind this is that uncooked, the texture isn't terribly appealing and it probably just doesn't look that good.
Reply:you can eat it, but very stringy, can make you choke.
When making fresh spinach, take the leaf and fold it closed in half with the stem running down the fold. Then just hold the leaf part and zip off the stem.
Reply:I like eating the leaves, and 1/4" of the stalk.

How many flowers can grow on one sunflower stalk.?
I had planted sunflower seeds. So far there are 2 flowers growing on one stalk and it appears there are going to be several more. I have only seen them with one flower.
How many flowers can grow on one sunflower stalk.?
It really depends on the variety of sunflower. Some sunflowers will produce multiple small heads on one stalk, while other more common varieties only have one stalk and one head.
I have a a few planted around my yard. some are single head mammoths (but for some reason one is getting 2 heads), but I also have smaller varieties in one corner that are reddish orange with several small heads all over them.
Reply:Most of the time, they grow with only one blossom. If you pinch back the top, called the "apical bud", then you'll get more blossoms from the lateral buds, which are at the juncture of the stem with each leaf. They may not ALL make flowers, but you will probably get several.
Reply:1
Reply:It depends on the type of sunflower you are growing. The bigger types usually have 1 big head, but then a few small ones may grow here and there. I don't know much about smaller ones, since this is my first year growing anything other than the 10-12' sunflowers. This year I am trying the 4' sunflowers.
Reply:Generally, just one flower grows on one stalk. However, there is a variety out there that does have a lot of flower heads on one stalk. They are usually smaller flower heads though. I had one that had at least 15 flower heads on it!

How can I save my bamboo plant once the stalk has turned yellow?
The top of the plant is still green, even has new green leaves coming in, but the stalk is yellow and is now getting black stripes on it.
How can I save my bamboo plant once the stalk has turned yellow?
I assume you have a "Lucky Bamboo"? You put it in a vase of water. This plant is actually a type of Dracaena, not a true bamboo. If the bottom part of the stem is going yellow you can help the remaining live portion last a little longer. You need a sharp pair of hand pruners or a really nice sharp kitchem knife. Cut off the bottom yellow part of the stem and a little bit (1-3cm) of the green stem...so that water can flow into the healthy tissue.
Add 2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide to the water, and try to refresh the water once weekly. Good luck!
Reply:I think you need to talk to someone at a good nursery. Bamboo is tricky. If it is getting black stripes on it, it may be black bamboo which is very pretty. The stalks (culms) turn black but the leaves stay green.
Reply:is it in water or in soil, if its in water, you have to trimt the roots

Probably you can use mushroom stock and get a result that is somewhat beef-like. They sell it in some supermarkets. I think it is one of the "better than bullion" products. Or here's a recipe:
Reply:Kitchen Basics is a great brand name for stock. They have Chicken, Beef, Seafood and Veggie even pork. All slow roasted with a great flavor. If you can find it at your store I recommend it no matter what you are making it adds flavor.

Vegetarian French Onion Soup
(Ingredients Per Person):
1 medium onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp. organic canola oil
Fresh ground pepper (to taste)
2 1/2 c. vegetarian "beef" broth (look for vegetarian bouillon flavored like beef)
1/4 c. dry white wine (optional)
1 tbsp. sherry (optional)
1 slice whole grain bread
1-2 slices of provolone cheese, Swiss cheese, or gruyere cheese
Cut the onion in half lengthwise. Then slice each half thinly and toss the slices into an enamel or stainless steel saucepan. Add oil and saute at a high heat. Add garlic. Stir occasionally, until onions are translucent.
Add broth, wine, sherry, and pepper. Bring the broth to a boil, then lower heat.
Ladle the soup into individual bowls. Place a slice of bread in each bowl and add cheese on top of the bread. Microwave each bowl for 1 min or until cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
Tips
To make your soup more authentic, use a slightly stale baguette instead of whole grain. Once you ladle the soup into (oven-safe) bowls, add the bread and cheese and broil them until the cheese is slightly browned and crispy around the edges.
For an untraditional French onion soup, add other vegetables like carrots, mushrooms, or celery. You might also want to add whole grains like barley.
If you can't find vegetarian "beef" broth, try this: use vegetable broth and 2-3 tbsp. vegetarian worcestershire sauce per serving. Optionally, add 1/2 tsp. soy sauce as well.
The vegans I've consulted say they would make this soup vegan by skipping the cheese. If you want to give it a go with vegan cheese, I am told Follow Your Heart monterey jack or mozzerella might be your best bets.
Reply:You can get vegetable stock at any well-stocked grocery store or health-food store.

Is an amaryllis bulb okay if a flower stalk breaks off?

Reply:If the plant is otherwise healthy, Just mound more dirt around it. The plant will be stronger for it.
Reply:If tomatoes have sprouted then most likely it is their weight that is causing the stalks to split.
Generally, when I grow tomatoes I attach the spine of the plant to a stick/board so that the plant has some additional support.

Can you save a Christmas Palm Tree when the stalk breaks off?
Its a potted Christmas Palm Tree about 5ft tall.
The wind was severe and the tree was blow over and broke the Palm stalk below the frawn.
Can you save a Christmas Palm Tree when the stalk breaks off?
sorry it is dead. palms are like that. they die when the stalk breaks. when in a pot the frawns are in the wind and the wind knocks it down. christmas palms arent strong when young, but as older survive hurricanes. when in a pot keep it held down by something such as lots of stones or a rope

Why is my indoor-bamboo stalk turning yellow?
I've got 3 growing together in a vase surronded by marbels on the bottom. It's got water. 2 of the three have turned yellow moving up the stalk. Both stalks have green leaves that are in good condition. Any ideas?
Why is my indoor-bamboo stalk turning yellow?
They are dying, I have found nothing that will stop this process. Mine started like yours. It is important to remove the ones that are turning yellow-or it will spread to all and kill the other stalk's....
Reply:Its dying. To prevent this in the future you need to clean the bowl and all the rocks about once a month..Also cut off any dead leaves and roots. This will help the bamboo from getting a fungus and it also promotes regeneration of healthy leaves and roots. There is also a fertilizer you can buy at any store that sells bamboo. you just put 10 small drops a week. It will eventually die but doing these steps will help keep healthy bamboo alive longer. Sorry to hear about your bamboo.

What kind of plant has a leaf just like a rhubarb leaf, but lighter in color, and the stalk is much thinner ?
My friend picked out a leaf outside our home and stated that it was a rhubarb plant. These plants are look alikes that have a much narrower stalk. He believed that if the plant was taken care of that the stalk would've grown to the regular width. I know it isn't the rhubarb plant, but I don't know what kind of plant to tell him it actually is. The main leaf, like a rhubarb leaf is big and venous looking, but not as dark as the rhubard, but a medium to light green. The stalk of the plant is a quarter of an inch thick with slight redness near the base of the 8 - 12 inch stalk. It is so unlike rhubarb to me, but he's convinced that it's an uncultivated rhubarb and that is why the stalk is so narrow. Does anyone have a clue what it is called? We are in Alaska, and the plant is growing near a grassy area. There were three growing about 5 - 9 feet away from our rhubarb.

It sounds like it could be a member of the chard family.
Check it out here and see if what you have is anything close:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chard
I wouldn't eat it, though, until checking it out with the USDA Extension Service -- check here for a branch near you (likely the Canadian ones):
http://www.oneglobe.com/agriculture/extn...
Ask them what grows in the area that might resemble what you have.
Reply:It could be a member of the celeraic family - a wild celery -they like the marshy/sandy conditions that a rhubarb thrives in - the leaves are similar in shape .the plant stalks can be a bit wiry , but have that distinct smell when the leaves are crushed. Report It
Reply:Swiss chard - also beet tops look like that.
Maybe you got a hybrid going.
Reply:this is a sticker bush ( grows a stalk) and produces the round sticker (like a thistle) It's a weed.

How many ears of corn on one stalk?
A friend says their are five ears of corn on one stalk, I say there is one or two? What is it?
How many ears of corn on one stalk?
Almost always there is only one fully developed ear. There may be two on some hybrids or in really good growing condition. But any farmer can tell you, those "extra ears" are not developed, they are mostly cob and husk. Might look like three or four ears...but only one (two maximum) that is usable.
Now here is a good question...why are they called "ears"?
Reply:Only one suprisingly, What a waste of space
Reply:Depends on many things. There can be one to six. Six if the soil is good and if there is enough water.
Reply:One
Reply:it will be 3 or5

You shouldn't need to remove the steering wheel, if you remove the steering column cover you should then be able to remove the stalk.

My orchid stopped flowering & the stalk is dead but leaves are green - how do i bring it back to flowering?
It is one of thosde orchids with one thin stalk and then you get 3 or 4 flowers on the end of it. I am guessing i should cut it back but have no idea how much.
My orchid stopped flowering %26amp; the stalk is dead but leaves are green - how do i bring it back to flowering?
If you cut the stem back to the second node below the flowers you will have a chance at another flower spike. Since yours is already dead you will need to just cut it off. My phalaenopsis orchid is on its third spike from the original bloom that started last March. Just keep your orchid watered and fertilized and you will get another in about a year. They do best in an area of bright indirect light and a fluctuating day and night temp. Warm during the day and cool at night. Good luck and next flower spike make sure you cut it back to the second node and you may get another flower spike. Here is a site that you may find helpful. Enjoy your blooms!

Reply:Just cut off the stalk at the bottom. Fertilize the green leaves when no blooms present then wait. It can take a full year to get another bloom. Be patient.
Reply:It sounds like you have a phalaenopsis orchid.Cut the flowered stalk down to about 5cm ,then move the plant into a colder room (5-6 degrees colder) for a couple of weeks. This will trick the plant into thinking it is going through a winter.Bring it back into the warmer room and hopefully it will flower again. Good luck!
Reply:They often flower only once a year so don't be too eager. Buy some proper orchid food and give it plenty of light and moisture, not too much don't drown it, it will grow new leaves then another flower spike same time next year. Cut the old ones off.
Reply:Trim the spike down some orchids take a year to rebloom, water every week, fertilize monthly, and keep in bright light, not direct sunlight.
Reply:I'm not an expert but I had one the same. I cut off the stalk and then just left it. Next year a new stalk came and flowered. Did it three times but now it's dead.

What is the best way to keep fresh corn in the stalk?
Do you peel the stalk off or do you leave it on?
What is the best way to keep fresh corn in the stalk?
Definitely leave the stalk on...and try to cook the corn as quickly as possible. From the moment that corn is picked, its natural sugars begin turning to starch, so the longer it sits, the tougher and less sweet it will be!
Reply:One more way, peel the leaves back and remove the silks by twisting off and pull back up the leaves, freeze and when you are ready to cook put in a paper sack in the nuke for about 3 minutes, then take the leaves off and you have mmmm corn.
Fresh, boil your water, drop your clean ears in and boil 4 minutes, cover and remove from heat source and leave sitting in water till ready to serve.
Reply:Keep the husk on definitely. It keeps it fresher longer.
Reply:Leave it on, and in the fridge - but not for long.

What type of bromeliad has a flowering stalk that is flat and kind of shaped like a beaver's tail?
It has purple flowers when it was blooming. The stalk is still green. I was wondering if the stalk needs to be cut off or left alone? The leaves on the plant are thin and green like blades of grass, but obviously thicker.
What type of bromeliad has a flowering stalk that is flat and kind of shaped like a beaver's tail?
Never cut the flower stalk on any variety of bromeliad. Let it die of its own accord, then cut it back. The plant uses enormous energy to produce the flower stalk and will "reclaim" it from the spent stalk, if allowed to do so. Your plant will flower again much sooner if you'll let nature take its course.

How do i make a cutting from a sprouted bamboo stalk?
i purchased a sprouted bamboo stalk about a year ago, now it's almost tripled in height, i'd like to cut it down and possibly (preferrably) make another plant out of it. am i going to be able to do this? any tips on how/where to go about this?
How do i make a cutting from a sprouted bamboo stalk?
Bamboo is one of those easy-to-propagate plants, and it is done in water, usually, but layering is the best way to do this.
"Bamboo culms can be pulled down to the ground and covered with soil and mulch and new plants will form at the nodes. This is the easiest and most reliable way to propagate bamboo plants from layerings."

How to grow lucky bamboo on top stalk instead of putting wax ?
I want to grow the top of the stalk of my lucky bamboo instead of having wax on it. How do I grow the top of the stalk? what are the steps to do it? can anyone help ?
How to grow lucky bamboo on top stalk instead of putting wax ?
OK. I'm really not sure what you mean with the wax, but I'll try and answer your question. By common misconception, its not even bamboo, it belongs to a very large family called dracena. If what you are doing involves taking cuttings and starting them, I would recommend cutting them directly below one of the sections and letting it dry out for a few minutes or an hour to seal the cut so you will minimize the chance of it rotting after you place it in distilled water only. It doesn't have to be completely full of water all of the time, but try not to let it dry out completely. It should root out within a couple of weeks.

How many grains of wheat on a stalk, and how much whole grain flour would it make?
I realize that wheat flour is made from different parts of the wheat grain, but my question is about whole grain wheat flour. My interest is knowing how many grains and stalks an average person 2,000 years ago would have needed to make their daily bread, and how it would convert in today's society. So, how many grains per stalk, and how much whole grain flour it would make. Thanks!
How many grains of wheat on a stalk, and how much whole grain flour would it make?
~*~Now days, with breeding, a stalk of wheat can have up to 200 grains.
Most wild wheat has between 10-18 grains per stalk.
It takes 150 grams or 5 oz of wheat berries to make one cup of flour.
Reply:How much do those 10-18 grains weigh? 5oz of wheat berries would be how many grains of wheat? Report It
Reply:There is no set answer to your question.
How many grains per stalk depends on the weather - the better weather at the right time, the more grains per stalk, and the fatter the grains.
If you make whole grain flour, you use the whole grain - so 1 ounce of grains equals almost one ounce of flour.
