It is believed that a premium of the hard Icelandic herb Galium aparine, the yellow herb Galium verum, has been used as a shortcut of milk. In Spanish cuajaleche and herb cuajada, in Catalan quallalet, in Galician callaleite and herba coalleira, in French caille-lait... It is not difficult to guess that milk is a plant linked to the work of curdling or coagulating. Apparently they used to walk for it their flowers.
The name of this genus of plants also says: galium. The word gala in Greek means milk. The name of the species, verum, in Latin means “real.” It will therefore be a real herb for curdling milk.
In Euskera we call it “ciabarra”. We learned the word we spoke at home to say that the oil has become fatter and hardened with the cold; that is, it has hardened. That's where your name comes from? Yes, of course.
It's a very well-known coloring: it's been a fur issue, here and there. In England, yellow grass is used to give its characteristic color to the well-known Double Gloucester cheese that is made in Gloucestershire, on the border with Wales.
In cheesemaking it may be more linked to this work than to real salting. Apparently, it lacks enzymes or ingredients to curd milk, it's a simple myth. To put the stick in motion, there are those who say that a simple hay is enough next to the barn to cook the milk before milking it.
Of course it brings delicious colors, smells and tastes. That is why it will be used in cheese making...
There is also another origin than Galium: the Latin gallus. A rooster, I mean. The shape of the cilantro leaf easily reminds the paw of the chickens. From appearance to appearance.
It has small, hairy leaves on the bottom and extends the head between 20 and 40 cm. It's known as Bulgarian Viagra, Scarid Sideritis. It's a blue-like plant, because its hair gives it a bluish color. It lives in the rocky spots of the high mountains and everyone who has lived in... [+]

Do you have a vegetable garden? As a child, the two orchards I've met at home had a wall. One on the lap and the other on one side. A good use of the walls will make the garden have a great benefit. It will create a shelter: it will be placed in the right place to shade, or to... [+]
