Jokkmokk, 30/06/1732, ¶542:
3 1/2 miles from the church I found ‘Cirsium minus’ [Alpine Saw-wort], ‘Cacalia’ [butterbur]4 without flowers, as well as what the Lapps call ‘botsko” and the Västerbotten people call “björnstut” ie. ‘Magistrantia’ [Angelica]. It was similar to ‘Angelica, umbella universalis, nuda’ [Garden Angelica]. The Lapp picked it immediately and, peeling the stalk which had not yet come into flower, ate it like a turnip as though it were a great delicacy. It really was tasty, the upper and softer part being particularly good, and the Lapps search avidly for it.
