July 25, 2016 Canned Heat!

When I take the kitchen middens from the latest canning session out to the compost before going to bed, the orchestra is in full chorus.  Night vapors and scents from the earth mingle with the fragrance of honeysuckle nearby and basil growing in the compost.  They merge into the rhythmic pulse of night. – William Longgood
Dear Friends,
     Looks like we’re still in for a few more days of this heat only with humidity added as a bonus. Why do the best vegetables for canning have to be ready when the temperature is peaking?
     We’ve dusted off the grill and once again, pleased with how good vegetables are when grilled.  Even all the sliced squash disappears!
     Broccoli is one of those vegetables that’s easy to steam but gets real boring after a time or two – especially when it’s easy to over cook.  Here are some delicious ideas for grilling:
                                                 Yum broccoli
     Here’s another for ideas although you have fresh not frozen!
                                                 Broccoli with Parmesan
                              
     Call or email me if you need cooking tips.  Happy to oblige.
