Indian Essentials: Paneer and Ghee

Indian Essentials: Paneer and Ghee

A couple of times a year, Todd and I go on an Indian food cooking extravaganza, prepping all sorts of curries and sauces that we can combine with veggies and use straight out of the freezer. This is a great time-saver because so many of the dishes we make have shared ingredients - there's an economy of scale to making several at once and packing the extra away for days when we have no time to cook, but enough time to reheat.

Six months after placing my name on the reserve list at the library, my number finally came up.


Herbed Vinegars

Herbed Vinegar Ingredients

Our garden is a very happy place for cooking herbs - at least the damp winter-hearty ones like thyme and sorrel. It's usually too damp and cool in our little patch for warm weather herbs. It's like they don't drain enough or ever get warm enough to grow. This summer we planted basil in our new greenhouse - and now we have more than we can eat. The same holds true for purple shiso, which we bought as a young plant at our local farmer's market.


Pickling Day!

Garden Harvest

Before leaving town for the weekend, I needed to put up some of our garden's goods. This year has been pretty fruitful in our backyard, and there were pickles and beans ready to can and more zucchini ready to dry.
