The corn pie was also fantastic, and I would totally make it again. The pie crust was made with a lot of olive oil with some black pepper. It was great, and I can see using it for other savory pies.
 Two heads of lettuce.Muskmelon and watermelon are getting cubed and eaten as is. This watermelon is a normal red one. Both are sweet and delicious. Green peppers will go in salads and some other dishes. Hot peppers are going in various dishes (chilaquiles, the dressing for a taco salad.) An onion. Lemon balm is something that my mother used to grow as a ground cover, but we never used it culinarily. I am making a simple syrup with the balm steeped in it for flavoring ice tea. It smells pretty mild, but hopefully it isn't overwhelmed by the tea. |
 I am attempting a technique for freezing this oregano. We don't use a ton of it, so if the freezing works then we can have it available when we do need it.Cucumber We only got one pattypan squash in our share, but we swapped a second cucumber for a small second one and a small regular summer squash. We have a recipe for pattypan that we've been wanting to make, so it seemed like a fair trade. We are going to put these carrots into a gratin. We've made it in the past with beets and carrots, and will likely pick up another small root veggie up from the grocery store to go into it. Mary doesn't much care for celery, but I like it. I'll probably end up eating it as snacks, but it may also find its way into soup or something. Tomatoes. Tomatoes sliced with salt, tomatoes chopped into salads, tomatoes roasted with lemon and rosemary, tomatoes sliced on our burgers, tomatoes in our chilaquiles, steaks with tomato jam. |
