This week, Drew picked up our share of the harvest out at Colchester Farms, where he had the opportunity to walk the fields and cut a bouquet for the kitchen (where the wallpaper backing and shelf plugs make a lovely backdrop).
Check out the summer festival of vegetables!
We have sweet corn, potatoes covered in dirt, huge white onions, bright kohlrabi, garlic scapes, luscious ripe tomatoes, crunchy jalapenos and, best of all, little green tomatillos! While we will find fun and creative ways to use everything, I am particularly thrilled with the Aztecs' favorite fruit. Tomatillos pair well with pork and pack a serious nutritional punch but they aren't always widely available. Check back later in the week for a slow-cooker pork & tomatillos stew, goat cheese and onion cornbread and an exciting kohlrabi creation!
