What’s cookin’?

The sweetcorn has started maturing into nice juicy cobs. We harvested the first half dozen specimens for supper. At this rate, we may have sufficient for about 7 family meals, and plenty of roughage for the goats.

Whilst at the veggie patch, Bianca stopped off at the apple section of the orchard. The ones with a flattish Granny Smith type appearance taste good, with a tough-ish peel. They look as if they might be good for stewing into preserve and perhaps apple sauce, so she collected a small batch for a cooking trial. (The lonely strawberry is one of the last of Brynn’s crop.)

(Above): To complete the cooking picture, we added a couple of quinces and a container of tomatoes from the greenhouse.

In the near future, we may have a couple of cookery blogs for you.
