We Be Jammin’
Am I alone in thinking I’m going to kill someone with a botched jar of jam?
Zucchini Pasta with Fresh Tomato Sauce
This amazing machine transforms produce with a simple crank of the handle, turning zucchini into wonderful spirals—a fantastic way to turn your veggies into something delicious and super healthy.
Nasturtium Pesto
Nasturtiums are a sweet flower that have a mild heat; I would describe them almost as a honeysuckle combined with horseradish. Right now they are everywhere in my neighborhood.
Making Chevre
We made this batch of chevre straight from the directions on the packet we got from New England Cheesemaking Supply Co. Since Kim and I have made this type of cheese a few times, we’ve started to experiment with using different quantities of cultures, but the recipe is great just as it is. Cheese making can seem a little intimidating, but it shouldn’t be, especially if you are having fun with a friend throughout the process.
