Reaping what's been sown.


I haven’t been posting here much on account of the lack of sun in Vancouver – which means no photos to share! But I managed to get some shots today before the downpour so I’ve got updates coming. In the meantime, I’m sharing a photo of tonight’s dinner. A stir-fry with honey garlic sauce featuring three kinds of greens from the garden (joi choi, beet greens, and kale). Not the first eating out of the garden this season but definitely the most satisfying. Pretty soon there will be peas, then beets and potatoes…

This meal was super simple: Three cloves of garlic, some soy sauce and about a quarter cup of honey in the bottom of a cast-iron pan (or wok) to make the base sauce. Add half an onion, 10-15 sliced mushrooms, some tofu (or meat), and about six cups of greens still wet from the rain in the garden. Serve on rice. Amazing and so unbelievably fresh.
