These little gems went into a delicious chicken fricassee last night. They’re Sweet 100’s from a potted plant that just won’t quit.
Last night’s dinner may have been about the end for our own tomatoes. We used about a dozen San Marzano Gigante’s to make a sauce into which we threw some clams, mussels, and scallops. A terrific Friday night fish stew. But today The Principessa did me a solid and took the walk of shame at the Montclair Farmers Market to purchase a few slicers as the garden is about done with tomatoes.
There are a couple Striped Germans which will probably ripen if the varmint doesn’t get them first. But that’s about it.
Last night The Principessa made a fabulous Butternut Squash – Bacon risotto using our own bacon and our own squash. We licked the plates clean.
No, not to get home from the shore. Bacon is underway on the BGE before 9 AM! Black pepper, coriander, bay leaf cure. My clothes already reek of applewood smoke.
