@little_melly wow, those are some big turnips! My rutabaga was about the size of one russet potato. I'd say a ratio of 1 rutabaga : 2 potatoes is decent providing they are the same size.
@lnwn, there are not buckeyes. They look similar, but you can't eat buckeyes.
@Oneisco, wow! Yes, you can't eat horse chestnuts (also called buckeyes) - they cause stomach irritation...
Washing dishes was my household chore when I was a teenager, and I worked in restaurants in my late teens/20's. I never wore dishwashing gloves for about 20 years, and now I have irreparable damag...
@sandrita thanks for the correction on "siling labuyo."
@ajanhelendam - where do you live? I've seen taro leaves and sweet potato leaves at the Manila Oriental Market in San Francisco.
@LizWong, I did my best, the ones photographed are the greens I was able to find. Sorry I couldn't do more.

@xieta that sounds delicious!
Azusa, thanks for the new recipe ideas!
nyorange: thanks, now I want a kimchi fridge :)
@fab those would be great in many chestnut recipes - with rice, stewed, in stuffings, pureed ...

@sirisha - no, those are 2 different things. Chestnuts are tree nuts and water chestnuts are the tuber of a water plant.
misplacedtexan: hazelnuts (filberts) are different from chestnuts, you can just crack those with a regular nutcracker and eat raw.
Update! Jean's pear and chocolate scone recipe has been added to this post.
@Slow Lorus not sure which variety of boletus it was. The cap was a bit rust-tinted in color. It was pretty big.
Mike, that is a great idea - I will research. Thanks!
I use mace in some Indian recipes I have. BTW, I just love that photo.
bfisk: well, it does add to the flavor, but if you dislike it, omit it and see how it tastes.
@k_darling doh! Fixed, thanks.

@geckotoes1, well, the kangkong (water spinach) has pointy leaves and hollow stems. Could that be it? It's called "ong choy" in Chinese.
