Pourpier or Purslane

I should have given the French name for purslane. I know Susan M will want to collect some from the market in Aix en Provence. It is pourpier.

Did I mention this weed is served in The French Laundry in the Napa Valley?

And to really feast your eyes check out some lovely pourpier images here:

Thanks for the info! I think I've seen this "weed" growing back when I had a garden... I'll look for it in the markets here in Provence, and think of you!
