didn't have enough ripe tomatoes so had to settle for strawberries to give it some colour

faye

Very colourful Gorotsuki. You need to put the pic of the beetroot in the "Size does matter" thread, a worthy contender for sure.

They don't call him "Baby Hands" Gorotsuki for nothing, that's really only a tiny beetroot... :lol:

haha that's my wife holding that beet and she was too keen to get it in the oven before we had the chance to weigh it. As I keep telling her you can't beet a good root...

faye

Lol' I've heard that one before.

So many of our favorite recipes require oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, and things like that. Does the recipe have to be totally 100% AP or would we be able to enter if say the salad had oil and vinegar? I like to make kale and collard chips and I use olive oil and salt on those.

Aside from the condiments, salt pepper, flower and cooking oil, we actually eat lots of meals that are all home grown and some even all AP grown.

I may need to try to grow some olive trees but I'm not sure we are really interested in pressing our own oil at this point.

I think sauces and condiments like salt and pepper can used

we're not playing for sheep stations here!

I think creative is the key though

From what I understand there are some great presses that run on the oil they press, and that the left over oil cakes make for great livestock feed.

The vinegar can be made from grapes...

Ok, this is a bit of a mix of dirt garden and AP, for memory, all the veg except the potatoes and carrots were AP grown. Eggs were home grown and fish of course.. Non ap/home grown things were olive oil, mustard seeds, poppy seeds and honey.

Potato salad, garden salad, bbq fish and honey sesame carrots and beets.

That didn't sound very Canadian, eh.

I mean that that post was in engrish, and your signature has an external link to a website selling cheap plastic pools. It looks like you are trying to get some free advertising.

Nah....just trying to raise google page rank by linking to the site from sites with existing high ranks.
