Dollarweed Chips- A Money Spell
This here is Hydrocotyle spp, commonly called dollarweed, pennywort, and marsh penny. It's considered a weed to most, and likes wet soil. Because Florida is a very marshy place, it's everywhere here!
With its silver-dollar shape and the large amounts found quickly spreading across any one area, this edible weed represents material wealth, prosperity, luck, and abundance.
I decided to harvest some and make them into baked chips for a money spell!
---------------------------------------------------
- any cooking oil, I used olive oil.
- other seasoning/herbs. You can use other herbs that match the correspondence of the plant and intent. However, I find that these are pretty powerful little guys on their own, and so I season them by preference instead of correspondence. For this to work it's important that you actually ENJOY these, just as you'll relish and enjoy the comfort of your prosperity and wealth. So pick flavors you like! On their own, they have a slightly peppery taste and the bigger, older leaves can have a bitter aftertaste. So I made mine with teriyaki sauce and sugar 😍
These are often confused for Creeping Charlie (Glechoma hederacea) and Dichondra. Here's a site that points out the differences. Be absolutely sure of the plant you have, and that it wasn't foraged in areas that are sprayed with pesticides. In Florida, you may find many in golf courses, do not eat these.
1. Heat your oven to 275°F
2. Wash your dollarweeds well, and clip off the stem as close to the leaf as you can. Pat them semi dry with a cloth or paper towel, doesn't have to be all the way dry, but not dripping.
3. In a bowl, toss your dollarweeds with some of the oil. Just enough to get them all nicely covered.
4. If you don't have a nonstick baking pan, put some oil on that too.
4. After the oil, they tend to stick to each other. Separate them and place each one on the baking pan, making sure that they aren't overlapping. Visualize that each one you place down is an enchanted coin, and with each one placed the more your wallet/bank account fills. You can visualize each one as a $20 bill you find on the ground, seeing yourself picking it up and letting yourself feel the excitement of having found it.
5. Sprinkle it with salt and your other herbs. I highly recommend something sweet, just, whatever you pick I would add some sugar on top!
6. Bake for 5 minutes, check them to make sure they're going well, then they'll usually need about 2 minutes more. They're done when they're crispy!
Enjoy! As you eat them, imagine yourself enjoying the freedom, stability, and pleasures that come with more wealth- what are you gonna buy with the $20s you found? Visualize it, feel it, believe it, and let the wealth flow in! 😊💰💵🌿
