  • Step 1/5

    Preheat oven to 150°C/300°F. To prepare the black salsify, wear gloves to prevent staining your hands, and use a brush to clean the stalks under running water. Fill a large bowl with water and add milk, squeeze in some lemon juice, and add the squeezed lemon to the bowl. Peel the salsify stalks, halve each, and transfer immediately to the milk liquid to prevent discoloration.
