Bladder Campion is one of my favourite wild edibles.
It is popular Spain where the leaves plant were collected when young (before the plant flowers) for sale as "collejas."
The young leaves and tender shoots are good in salads but older leaves are usually cooked by frying or boiling. They can also be added to soups, stews and omelettes. Tastes like a cross between spinach and a green pea
