Favorite Photos From The Kitchen
I enjoy preparing meals from scratch with a little ‘cheat’. In this recipe, I combine flour and milk to create a simple biscuit or use biscuit mix that is added to the stockpot. Carrots and celery are straightforward to cultivate and can enhance your immune system. If you are creating this recipe during the hot summer months you may want to blanch the celery you grow in your home garden to eliminate the strong, bitter taste that certain varieties may develop in warmer temperatures. Todays harvest is a new ‘Utah’ variety of celery that is super mild but full of fresh flavor.
The photo above featuring the dumpling is to give you an idea of what the dough looks like before adding to the soup to cook.
Keeping It From The Garden Fresh
The secret to good meals with great flavor is fresh herbs. Below I share a product review to help you keep your herbs fresh year-round. I also recommend growing your own parsley. This herb has got to be the easiest to grow in a greenhouse or on your kitchen counter in a growing system like Aerogarden.
Today, growing vegetables and a variety of herbs year-round has become incredibly easy, even in Ohio. The harvest featured in today’s photos was gathered on November 2, directly from my raised beds. While the herbs came from my dome greenhouse, most of my culinary herbs thrive year-round in a hydroponic setup in my office. We are truly fortunate to cultivate these varieties that are often hard to find at an affordable price. You can find out more about how I grow in my raised beds and hydroponics on my website.
