Pdg, pretty darn good! I forgot to say I added a pinch of achiote for color and a heaping Tbsp of chia seeds.

I always add creamed corn to mine to keep it super moist.

I'll have to try that. Thanks, Pugs.

Interesting use of chia seeds - do they add a flavour of any sort or just in there?

No, they're just a visual when you're eating it.

No, they're just a visual when you're eating it.

So if they disappear, you've eaten it?

Like raisins?

I like dried cranberries in lieu of raisins. These are a lot smaller.

I went to the supermarket today. (sounds like an opener for a one liner ).
There was rhubarb - that's so difficult to find, I bought a whole kilo and made a rhubarb crumble!

They're tiny. Just pulling your leg!

Yes - just looked. Interesting back story.
Chia seed - Wikipedia

Given I have seen it growing as far north as the Barents Sea, I would imagine you would have no problem whatsoever growing it. Have you tried importing a bare-root plant? They are not expensive... Can you import them, I wonder?

I tried once, but it came out stunted. I think the heat here, and the lack of somewhere with decent shade, probably caused that.
