Freezer-emptying time
Posted by Lauren on 16 Jul 2010 | Tagged as: comestibles, deliciousness, freezing, local food, recipes
Silly as it seems to have ripe peppers, freshly-processed chickens, tons of herbs, and tomatoes coming soon, but not use them, I’m turning to frozen herbs and frozen roasted peppers and tomatoes plus a chicken from last fall to make a variation on this pulled chicken recipe. Gotta get the freezer emptied out in preparation for another cow (next week?) and pig (August) and more chickens … not to mention the tomato harvest that I hope is coming.
Shelling peas on the couch

The shelling peas are coming on strong so we picked a big bowlful to shell while watching Buffy. I use the shells to make stock in case we need to feed any vegetarians, and I blanched and then quick-cooled the peas right in the colander we shelled them into.
Does what it says on the tin.
