Question

Name any three plants which have more than one edible part. Mention those edible parts.

Answer 1

Plants with multiple edible parts indicate that apart from the leaves, its stems or roots or seeds can be consumed either in their raw form or after being cooked. Edible plants include a list of culinary fruits, herbs and spices, nuts, cacti, flowers etc. Leaf vegetables, root vegetables and seeds are other edible plants.

Complete answer:
Three plants whose more than one part can be consumed are:
1. Squash (Cucurbita maxima)
2. Winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus)
3. Horseradish (Moringa oleifera)
Cucurbita maxima, known by its common name squash, is one of the most diverse domesticated species. Its edible parts are its fruit, seeds, flower and shoots. Buttercup squash which is a common cultivar, can be roasted, baked and mashed into soups. Pumpkin pie is another dish made from the fruit of the plant. Its flowers are used as a condiment and a soup ingredient or to make salads or use as dressings in cold salads. The seeds are either eaten whole or used in confectioneries or baked goods. The young leaves of the shoots are used as a pot herb among other uses.
Winged bean is a tropical herbaceous legume plant. It is nutrient-rich and all parts of the plant can be consumed. Leaves can be eaten like spinach, flowers may be used in salads, tubers are eaten raw or cooked and the seeds can be used in ways similar to the soybean.
Horseradish (Moringa oleifera), is a root vegetable whose edible parts are the pods, flowers and leaves. Horseradish sauce made by grating horseradish root and vinegar is the common condiment used in the United Kingdom and in Poland. It is also used in wasabi due to the scarcity of the wasabi plant.

Note:
Some other plants which are entirely edible are water melon, lady finger, mustard, kale, etc. Celery, parsley, swamp cabbage are other few examples. These plants are consumed either separately or all together as condiments, dishes or as medicinal herbs.
