Lunch treat

Once in a while we all need something different for lunch. So, what is a lunch treat?

Freshly baked pretzel. Here we have 'before' and 'after' pictures.

A salad with ingredients freshly picked from the garden. Leafy greens such as Chinese Broad Leaf Celery, Japanese Mustard Spinach Komatsuna, different lettuce varieties, rocket, French Sorrel, pea shoots, young beetroot leaves, etc. Add some very thinly sliced bulb fennel, thinly sliced oranges (without the peel), extra-virgin olive oil, a drizzle of lemon juice, salt & pepper.

  1. I am going to grow some of that Komatsuna and the Chinese broad-leaf celery. Nice to find some new vegetables to try.

  2. I know I have seeds for both - somewhere. I shall try to dig them out for you. :)

I am always happy to read your comments, dear readers. However, I am trialling 'word verification' for a little while, as I have been receiving a lot of spam. The spam never makes it onto the comment pages, as I am moderating all comments. But it is starting to get tedious to moderate all the spam. I hope this will not cause any inconvenience to any of may regular readers. Please leave a comment - I am always happy to hear from you! :)
