Our first garden harvest here! Very slim pickings but its lovely after about 6 months to be able to wander around the garden and pick our own salad greens! There are mint leaves growing wild in the back paddock, parsley brought from our old garden taken to all our various places of abode and now transplanted in the herb garden. There is corn salad that grabbed a lift on some raspberry canes brought from the old place, and mesclun mix sown into a pop and overwintered in the plastic house, cut as baby leaves. With a simple dressing of home-made cider vinegar, local olive oil, fermented mustard from mum and some rapadura ( Old style evapourated sugarcane juice), some salt and pepper. Yum! And with it for lunch? Baked potato hot chips with home made mayo/hollandaise ( Made with half melted butter, half olive oil).
