"It looks like something you'd use to kill a vampire, like a demented potato in stick form,"
This is the most accurate description that I could find online.
So burdock actually wasn't on the list to eat this week, now that I'm planning ahead. Today was originally supposed to be rutabaga, but seeing as I didn't know what rutabaga looked like and this was in the rutabaga basket it's what I ended up buying. There was a friendly exchange with the cashier about what this actually was, I was convinced I was right until he busted out his little picture book of vegetable roots. He won and now I know what burdock is, so it worked out well.
We ended up stir-frying (good), microwaving(bad b/c I burnt them), and deep-frying (good, Rich's idea) these roots.
