Consider growing Youlk, with its crisp apple-like texture, golden potato colour and hints of
carrot and sweet eucalypt flavour, it makes a tasty ingredient for
salads, stews, pies, gratin, cakes and other dishes — or simply roasted,
baked or fried with a little butter and salt. Well adapted to the WA environment, this plant can thrive under dry
conditions in nutrient-poor, sandy soils. However, for best results in a
backyard garden, grow your Youlk in full sun or part shade, in loamy
soil, and water generously during Summer. To learn more about Youlk and other bushfoods go to www.tuckerbush.com.au
