This might hit the spring menu with rabbit confit, peas and carrots.
These are tulips. A sure sign of party time. Give away everything you haven’t touched in a year and replace it with a tulip.
Sustainable Living Fair is tomorrow (today) and we are presenting a class on pickling and we foolishly titled it Pickling in the New Era as if we were going to talk about how we invented a new method of preserving food. Anyhow it’s Sunday morning 11:30 am at the Webb Center and should be fun. Hopefully questions take up most of the 30 min because we are not prepared to tell pickling stories for that length of time.
Below is a pdf of the recipes we are giving away at the class, please download for your enjoyment
Check our Events page for details. We’ll have all info there and update this when menus become finalized. Pretty simple stuff here, try to smile.
Looking to get more details about this and we’ll post more after the weekend but for now go ahead and check out the website to see what is confirmed. Will Allen is a guest speaker, who if you don’t know – wiki – get there. Should be nothing less than inspiring and spectacular. We are doing a class on Pickling in the New Era. Not sure what time but will post that when known. Enjoy!
yes we are participating because we think it’s fun. And in making it fun the menu will be a merry-go-round of sorts with certain dishes reappearing and disappearing. Not sure if merry-go-round is the proper analogy since as we think about it there is not much sense to made of it. Tomorrow night’s menu will be slightly different than tonight and who knows what will have this weekend.
Three courses for $30. Simple as that.
This is an apple and oats loaf made with regular flour and white whole wheat. Hoping to get some nice clay bakers for Boot kitchen this spring.
