Stunning and impressive!!!!!

Beautiful 'steps' down to the sea... ;-))

... except for an overhanging cliff between these rocks at the top and the sea at the bottom!

Thank you very much!

Nice granite steps (into the void...) I didn't know about the culinary uses of rock samphire, I looked it up and now know it's called Meerfenchel (sea fennel) in German.

It has the tang of the sea, slightly but pleasantly iodine-y. I would lightly steam it for about 2 minutes, serve it with a little unsalted butter and with any white fish such as hake, bass, cod, etc.

Knowing what to do with rock samphire hardly qualifies me as the new Keith Floyd (R.I.P.), Keith!

Many thanks!

Thank you, Claudia!

Good natural steps to the samphire! A popular ingredient these days.

What chef's pay good money for is the much rarer marsh samphire. Sadly this is ten-a-penny rock samphire and you won't find it in the shops. It isn't used much in cooking either, the iodine tang is just a bit too much for some taste-buds. In my family my mum and I love it, my brother sister and dad detest it!
