Harvest Monday – 27 January 2014
Monday, January 27, 2014 5:12
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
This past week I havested the very last of my “Matsuri” minature broccoli. Oh Boy, was it miniature!
That’s a cereal-bowl they are in, by the way, just to give you an idea of their size. Anyway, I mustn’t complain because “size isn’t everything”, as they say.
I have also picked more of my Winter salads:
In that bowl are one Batavian (or broad-leaved) Endive, one Radicchio (red chicory), one Curly Endive, and one “Sugar Loaf” chicory (top right of photo). None of them is big, but bear in mind you are looking at the hearts only – the tatty outer leaves have already been removed. All this lot is edible.
This is it after washing…
The salad was served alongside a couple of lovely tender Sirloin steaks from our favourite Linkway butcher’s shop, and accompanied by some “new” potatoes cooked as chips in the trusty Actifry machine. Sounds unenterprising, but I tell you it was a GOOD meal!
That’s it for the week, I’m afraid. A very meagre harvest! Why not go across to Harvest Monday on Daphne’s Dandelions to see if anyone has done better…?
